Timed, Distributed, Probabilistic, Typed Processes
This paper studies types and probabilistic bisimulations for a timed -calculus as an effective tool for a compositional analysis of probabilistic distributed behaviour. The types c...

A Phase Space Approach to Minimax Entropy Learning and the Minutemax Approximations
There has been much recent work on measuring image statistics and on learning probability distributions on images. We observe that the mapping from images to statistics is many-to...

On the complexity of computational problems regarding distributions (a survey)
We consider two basic computational problems regarding discrete probability distributions: (1) approximating the statistical difference (aka variation distance) between two given d...

Modeling Switching Activity Using Cascaded Bayesian Networks for Correlated Input Streams
We represent switching activity in VLSI circuits using a graphical probabilistic model based on Cascaded Bayesian Networks (CBN’s). We develop an elegant method for maintaining ...
