Temporal Logics and Model Checking for Fairly Correct Systems
We motivate and study a generic relaxation of correctness of reactive and concurrent systems with respect to a temporal specification. We define a system to be fairly correct if...

Learning to Read Between the Lines: The Aspect Bernoulli Model
We present a novel probabilistic multiple cause model for binary observations. In contrast to other approaches, the model is linear and it infers reasons behind both observed and ...
