Learning how to create, test, and revise models is a central skill in scientific reasoning. We argue that qualitative modeling provides an appropriate level of representation for ...

Sensitivity analysis of Markovian models amounts to computing the constants in polynomial functions of a parameter under study. To handle the computational complexity involved, we...
We present a new model for self-organizing networks such as the web graph, and analyze its limit behaviour. In the model, new vertices are introduced over time that copy the neighb...
We present a skeletal linked model of the human hand that has natural motion. We show how this can be achieved by introducing a new biology-based joint axis that simulates natural ...

Abstract. Graphical models with higher order factors are an important tool for pattern recognition that has recently attracted considerable attention. Inference based on such model...
