We introduce a general method to count and randomly sample unlabeled combinatorial structures. The approach is based on pointing unlabeled structures in an “unbiased” way, i.e...
We introduce a logical formalism of irreflexivc causal production relations that possesses both a standard monotonic semantics, and a natural nonmonotonic semantics. The formalism...
We introduce an information theoretic method for nonparametric, nonlinear dimensionality reduction, based on the infinite cluster limit of rate distortion theory. By constraining...
Explicit preferences on assumptions as used in prioritized circumscription [McCarthy, 1986; Lifschitz, 1985; Grosof, 1991] and preferred subtheories [Brewka, 1989] provide a clear...
This paper presents a framework for generating smoothlooking transformations between pairs of surfaces that may differ in topology. The user controls the transformation by specify...
