We consider adding k shortcut edges (i.e. edges of small fixed length δ ≥ 0) to a graph so as to minimize the weighted average shortest path distance over all pairs of vertices...
Abstract – In this paper, a variational message passing framework is proposed for Markov random fields. Analogous to the traditional belief propagation algorithm, variational mes...
Fact collections are mostly built using semi-supervised relation extraction techniques and wisdom of the crowds methods, rendering them inherently noisy. In this paper, we propose...
In this paper, we address the issue for learning better translation consensus in machine translation (MT) research, and explore the search of translation consensus from similar, r...
In this paper, we propose a new way to automatically model and predict human behavior of receiving and disseminating information by analyzing the contact and content of personal c...
