Common-Frame Model for Object Recognition
A generative probabilistic model for objects in images is presented. An object consists of a constellation of features. Feature appearance and pose are modeled probabilistically. ...

A Rewriting Based Model for Probabilistic Distributed Object Systems
Concurrent and distributed systems have traditionally been modelled using nondeterministic transitions over configurations. The minism provides an abstraction over scheduling, net...

Parsing and Hypergraphs
While symbolic parsers can be viewed as deduction systems, this view is less natural for probabilistic parsers. We present a view of parsing as directed hypergraph analysis which ...

Fast Probabilistic Planning through Weighted Model Counting
We present a new algorithm for probabilistic planning with no observability. Our algorithm, called Probabilistic-FF, extends the heuristic forward-search machinery of Conformant-F...

Factored Models for Probabilistic Modal Logic
Modal logic represents knowledge that agents have about other agents' knowledge. Probabilistic modal logic further captures probabilistic beliefs about probabilistic beliefs....

Probability Kinematics in Information Retrieval
We analyse the kinematics of probabilistic term weights at retrieval time for di erent Information Retrieval models. We present four models based on di erent notions of probabilis...

A Probabilistically Correct Leader Election Protocol for Large Groups
This paper presents a scalable leader election protocol for large process groups with a weak membership requirement. The underlying network is assumed to be unreliable but characte...
