We address the problem of learning the parameters in graphical models when inference is intractable. A common strategy in this case is to replace the partition function with its B...
Abstract. Techniques such as verification condition generation, preditraction, and expressive type systems reduce software verification to proving formulas in expressive logics. Pr...

Coordinated data structures are sets of (perhaps unbounded) data structures where the nodes of each structure may share types with the corresponding nodes of the other structures....
We present a unified framework for reasoning about worst-case regret bounds for learning algorithms. This framework is based on the theory of duality of convex functions. It brin...
: In an extensible database system, evaluation of a query plan is done in cooperation between a collection of operator implementation functions and a component of the DBMS that we ...
