We consider the problem of maximizing the reliability of a series-parallel system given cost and weight constraints on the system. The number of components in each subsystem and th...
The Expectation Maximization EM algorithm is an iterative procedure for maximum likelihood parameter estimation from data sets with missing or hidden variables 2 . It has been app...
Domestic ubicomp applications often assume individual users will program and configure their technology in isolation, decoupled from complex domestic environments in which they ar...

In this paper we examine the ability to perform causal reasoning with equilibrium models. We explicate a postulate, which we term the Manipulation Postulate, that is required in o...
This paper proposes a novel maximum entropy based rule selection (MERS) model for syntax-based statistical machine translation (SMT). The MERS model combines local contextual info...
