Theoretical analysis and practical insights on importance sampling in Bayesian networks
The AIS-BN algorithm [2] is a successful importance sampling-based algorithm for Bayesian networks that relies on two heuristic methods to obtain an initial importance function: -...

A Probabilistic Upper Bound on Differential Entropy
A novel, non-trivial, probabilistic upper bound on the entropy of an unknown one-dimensional distribution, given the support of the distribution and a sample from that distribution...

False Rate Analysis of Bloom Filter Replicas in Distributed Systems
Recently, Bloom filters have been widely used in distributed systems where they are replicated to process distributed queries. Bloom filter replicas become stale in a dynamic en...

On the Orthogonal Projection of a Belief Function
In this paper we study a new probability associated with any given belief function b, i.e. the orthogonal projection π[b] of b onto the probability simplex P. We provide an interp...
