Estimating the size of the telephone universe: a Bayesian Mark-recapture approach
Mark-recapture models have for many years been used to estimate the unknown sizes of animal and bird populations. In this article we adapt a finite mixture mark-recapture model i...

A probabilistic approach to inference with limited information in sensor networks
We present a methodology for a sensor network to answer queries with limited and stochastic information using probabilistic techniques. This capability is useful in that it allows...
