Inference in Multilayer Networks via Large Deviation Bounds
We study probabilistic inference in large, layered Bayesian networks represented as directed acyclic graphs. We show that the intractability of exact inference in such networks do...

There exists no Steiner system S(4, 5, 17)
If a Steiner system S(4, 5, 17) exists, it would contain derived S(3, 4, 16) designs. By relying on a recent classification of the S(3, 4, 16), an exhaustive computer search for S...
