This paper reports on a study involving the automatic extraction of Chinese legal terms. We used a word segmented corpus of Chinese court judgments to extract salient legal expres...
We propose a novel method for approximate inference in Bayesian networks (BNs). The idea is to sample data from a BN, learn a latent tree model (LTM) from the data offline, and wh...
Classification algorithms typically induce population-wide models that are trained to perform well on average on expected future instances. We introduce a Bayesian framework for l...
This paper describes a technique for learning both the number of states and the topologyof Hidden Markov Models from examples. The inductionprocess starts with the most specific m...
—This paper presents a method to find salient image points in images with regular patterns based on deviations from the overall manifold structure. The two main contributions ar...
