Belief propagation (BP) is an increasingly popular method of performing approximate inference on arbitrary graphical models. At times, even further approximations are required, wh...

We present a framework for approximating random-walk based probability distributions over Web pages using graph aggregation. We (1) partition the Web's graph into classes of ...

In many pattern recognition/classification problem the true class conditional model and class probabilities are approximated for reasons of reducing complexity and/or of statistic...
Abstract. This paper introduces a new algorithm for approximate mining of frequent patterns from streams of transactions using a limited amount of memory. The proposed algorithm co...
Abstract. We consider the problem of scheduling jobs on related machines owned by selfish agents and provide the first deterministic mechanisms with constant approximation that a...
