Probabilistically Stable Numerical Sparse Polynomial Interpolation
We consider the problem of sparse interpolation of a multivariate black-box polynomial in floating-point arithmetic. That is, both the inputs and outputs of the black-box polynomia...

Spoken Dialogue Management Using Probabilistic Reasoning
Spoken dialogue managers have benefited from using stochastic planners such as Markov Decision Processes (MDPs). However, so far, MDPs do not handle well noisy and ambiguous speec...

Approximate Decomposition: A Method for Bounding and Estimating Probabilistic and Deterministic Queries
In this paper, we introduce a method for approximating the solution to inference and optimization tasks in uncertain and deterministic reasoning. Such tasks are in general intract...

Adaptive Importance Sampling to Accelerate Training of a Neural Probabilistic Language Model
Previous work on statistical language modeling has shown that it is possible to train a feed-forward neural network to approximate probabilities over sequences of words, resulting...

A Probabilistic Model for Canonicalizing Named Entity Mentions
We present a statistical model for canonicalizing named entity mentions into a table whose rows represent entities and whose columns are attributes (or parts of attributes). The m...
