Learning stick-figure models using nonparametric Bayesian priors over trees
We present a fully probabilistic stick-figure model that uses a nonparametric Bayesian distribution over trees for its structure prior. Sticks are represented by nodes in a tree i...

Convolutional Factor Graphs as Probabilistic Models
Based on a recent development in the area of error control coding, we introduce the notion of convolutional factor graphs (CFGs) as a new class of probabilistic graphical models. ...

Selectivity Estimation using Probabilistic Models
Estimating the result size of complex queries that involve selection on multiple attributes and the join of several relations is a difficult but fundamental task in database query...

Scalable Probabilistic Databases with Factor Graphs and MCMC
Incorporating probabilities into the semantics of incomplete databases has posed many challenges, forcing systems to sacrifice modeling power, scalability, or treatment of relatio...

Probabilistic latent maximal marginal relevance
Diversity has been heavily motivated in the information retrieval literature as an objective criterion for result sets in search and recommender systems. Perhaps one of the most w...
