We consider the frame problem, that is, char acterizing the assumption that properties tend to persist over time. We show that there are at least three distinct assumptions that...
Measuring the causal effects of online advertising (adfx) on user behavior is important to the health of the WWW publishing industry. In this paper, using three controlled experi...
Bayesian inference methods are commonly applied to the classification of brain Magnetic Resonance images (MRI). We use the Maximum Evidence (ME) approach to estimate the most prob...
A critical step in all quartet methods for constructing evolutionary trees is the inference of the topology for each set of four sequences (i.e. quartet). It is a well–known fact...

We describe a novel inference algorithm for sparse Bayesian PCA with a zero-norm prior on the model parameters. Bayesian inference is very challenging in probabilistic models of t...
