Distributed systems can often be modeled as a collection of distributed (system) variables whose values are constrained by a set of constraints. In distributed multi-agent systems...

Previous work on ordering events in text has typically focused on local pairwise decisions, ignoring globally inconsistent labels. However, temporal ordering is the type of domain...
Markov random field (MRF, CRF) models are popular in
computer vision. However, in order to be computationally
tractable they are limited to incorporate only local interactions

Pseudo-likelihood and contrastive divergence are two well-known examples of contrastive methods. These algorithms trade off the probability of the correct label with the probabili...
