Making Trust Explicit in Distributed Commerce Transactions
In a distributed environment where nodes are independently motivated, many transactions or commercial exchanges may be stymied due to a lack of trust between the participants. The...

Fully distributed EM for very large datasets
In EM and related algorithms, E-step computations distribute easily, because data items are independent given parameters. For very large data sets, however, even storing all of th...

Modeling word burstiness using the Dirichlet distribution
Multinomial distributions are often used to model text documents. However, they do not capture well the phenomenon that words in a document tend to appear in bursts: if a word app...

A maximum entropy approach to species distribution modeling
We study the problem of modeling species geographic distributions, a critical problem in conservation biology. We propose the use of maximum-entropy techniques for this problem, s...
