As we devise more complicated prior distributions, will inference algorithms keep up? We highlight a negative result in computable probability theory by Ackerman, Freer, and Roy (...
The Bentley-Ottmann sweep-line method can be used to compute the arrangement of planar curves provided a number of geometric primitives operating on the curves are available. We d...
The multidimensional analysis based on data cube has been growing interest. However existing data cube model usually does not have the semantics of attributes and hence the analysi...
We present a directed Markov random field (MRF) model that combines n-gram models, probabilistic context free grammars (PCFGs) and probabilistic latent semantic analysis (PLSA) fo...

In this paper we study a fundamental open problem in the area of probabilistic checkable proofs: What is the smallest s such that NP naPCP1,s[O(log n), 3]? In the language of har...
