Loop Series and Bethe Variational Bounds in Attractive Graphical Models
Variational methods are frequently used to approximate or bound the partition or likelihood function of a Markov random field. Methods based on mean field theory are guaranteed ...

Linear Approximation of Planar Spatial Databases Using Transitive-Closure Logic
We consider spatial databases in the plane that can be defined by polynomial constraint formulas. Motivated by applications in geographic information systems, we investigate line...

Towards a Theory of Time-Bounded Verification
Abstract. We propose a theory of time-bounded verification for realtime systems, in which verification queries are phrased over time intervals of fixed, bounded duration. We argue ...

Approximate Discovery of Random Graphs
In the layered-graph query model of network discovery, a query at a node v of an undirected graph G discovers all edges and non-edges whose endpoints have different distance from ...

Learning Languages from Positive Data and a Finite Number of Queries
A computational model for learning languages in the limit from full positive data and a bounded number of queries to the teacher (oracle) is introduced and explored. Equivalence, ...
