Loopy belief propagation for approximate inference: An empirical study. In:
- Proceedings of Uncertainty in AI,
, 1999
"... Abstract Recently, researchers have demonstrated that "loopy belief propagation" -the use of Pearl's polytree algorithm in a Bayesian network with loops -can perform well in the context of error-correcting codes. The most dramatic instance of this is the near Shannon-limit performanc ..."

nothing directly to do with coding or decoding will show that in some sense belief propagation "converges with high probability to a near-optimum value" of the desired belief on a class of loopy DAGs Progress in the analysis of loopy belief propagation has been made for the case of networks
How to improve Bayesian reasoning without instruction: Frequency formats
- Psychological Review
, 1995
"... Is the mind, by design, predisposed against performing Bayesian inference? Previous research on base rate neglect suggests that the mind lacks the appropriate cognitive algorithms. However, any claim against the existence of an algorithm, Bayesian or otherwise, is impossible to evaluate unless one s ..."

Ricci Flow with Surgery on Three-Manifolds
"... This is a technical paper, which is a continuation of [I]. Here we verify most of the assertions, made in [I, §13]; the exceptions are (1) the statement that a 3-manifold which collapses with local lower bound for sectional curvature is a graph manifold- this is deferred to a separate paper, as the ..."

, as the proof has nothing to do with the Ricci flow, and (2) the claim about the lower bound for the volumes of the maximal horns and the smoothness of the solution from some time on, which turned out to be unjustified, and, on the other hand, irrelevant for the other conclusions.

Reusing Software: Issues And Research Directions
, 1995
"... Software productivity has been steadily increasing over the last 30 years, but not enough to close the gap between the demands placed on the software industry and what the state of the practice can deliver [22,39]; nothing short of an order of magnitude increase in productivity will extricate the so ..."

Title: A Frog in a Well Knows Nothing of the Ocean: A History of Corporate Ownership in Japan
"... An ancient Japanese proverb speaks of a frog prideful of the beauty at the bottom of his well and ignorant of the world beyond. The history of Japanese corporate governance is especially interesting because the Japan-ese literally searched the world for the best institutions of capitalism, and ..."

Towards a bottom-up perspective on animal and human cognition.
- Trends in Cognitive Sciences,
, 2010
"... Over the last few decades, comparative cognitive research has focused on the pinnacles of mental evolution, asking all-or-nothing questions such as which animals (if any) possess a theory of mind, culture, linguistic abilities, future planning, and so on. Research programs adopting this top-down pe ..."

Sometimes Nothing Succeeds like Success: Reactions to Success and Failure in Sex-linked Occupations

Efficient Computation of the Skyline Cube
