Optimal query complexity bounds for finding graphs
We consider the problem of finding an unknown graph by using two types of queries with an additive property. Given a graph, an additive query asks the number of edges in a set of ...

Dependency trees in sub-linear time and bounded memory
We focus on the problem of efficient learning of dependency trees. Once grown, they can be used as a special case of a Bayesian network, for PDF approximation, and for many other u...
