Formal languages for probabilistic modeling enable re-use, modularity, and descriptive clarity, and can foster generic inference techniques. We introduce Church, a universal langu...

There has been a recent surge in work in probabilistic databases, propelled in large part by the huge increase in noisy data sources -from sensor data, experimental data, data fro...
In this paper, we present a novel algorithm for partial
intrinsic symmetry detection in 3D geometry. Unlike previous
work, our algorithm is based on a conceptually simple
and st...

Recent advances in statistical machine translation have used approximate beam search for NP-complete inference within probabilistic translation models. We present an alternative ap...

In this paper, we elucidate the equivalence between inference in game theory and machine learning. Our aim in so doing is to establish an equivalent vocabulary between the two dom...
