Approximate Decomposition: A Method for Bounding and Estimating Probabilistic and Deterministic Queries
In this paper, we introduce a method for approximating the solution to inference and optimization tasks in uncertain and deterministic reasoning. Such tasks are in general intract...

Approximating the Best Linear Unbiased Estimator of Non-Gaussian Signals with Gaussian Noise
Obtaining the best linear unbiased estimator (BLUE) of noisy signals is a traditional but powerful approach to noise reduction. Explicitly computing the BLUE usually requires the ...

A New Algorithm for Training SVMs Using Approximate Minimal Enclosing Balls
Abstract. It has been shown that many kernel methods can be equivalently formulated as minimal-enclosing-ball (MEB) problems in certain feature space. Exploiting this reduction eff...
