—The online detection of anomalies is a vital element of operations in data centers and in utility clouds like Amazon EC2. Given ever-increasing data center sizes coupled with th...
—This paper addresses the problem of self-validated labeling of Markov random fields (MRFs), namely to optimize an MRF with unknown number of labels. We present graduated graph c...
We introduce Bayesian Expansion (BE), an approximate numerical technique for passage time distribution analysis in queueing networks. BE uses a class of Bayesian networks to appro...
In this paper we propose a Bayesian model for multi-task feature selection. This model is based on a generalized spike and slab sparse prior distribution that enforces the selectio...
Polygon spaces like Mℓ = {(u1, · · · , un) ∈ S1 × · · · S1 ; n i=1 liui = 0}/SO(2) or they three dimensional analogues Nℓ play an important rle in geometry and topolo...
