Abstract. Two approaches have been used to perform approximate inference in Bayesian networks for which exact inference is infeasible: employing an approximation algorithm, or appr...
Multiple description coding (MDC) is an error resilient source coding scheme that creates multiple descriptions of the source with the aim of providing an acceptable reconstructio...
Abstract— Motivated by applications to sensor, peer-topeer and ad hoc networks, we study distributed asynchronous algorithms, also known as gossip algorithms, for computation and...

We consider probabilistic inference in general hybrid networks, which include continuous and discrete variables in an arbitrary topology. We reexamine the question of variable dis...
We introduce a new geometric, rank-based model for the link structure of on-line social networks (OSNs). In the geo-protean (GEO-P) model for OSNs nodes are identified with points ...
