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 ..."

the convergence the more exact the approximation. • If the hidden nodes are binary, then thresholding the loopy beliefs is guaranteed to give the most probable assignment, even though the numerical value of the beliefs may be incorrect. This result only holds for nodes in the loop. In the max-product (or "
Shoestring: Probabilistic Soft Error Reliability on the Cheap
"... Aggressive technology scaling provides designers with an ever increasing budget of cheaper and faster transistors. Unfortunately, this trend is accompanied by a decline in individual device reliability as transistors become increasingly susceptible to soft errors. We are quickly approaching a new er ..."

, are likely to result in user-visible faults without first exhibiting symptomatic behavior. Shoestring is able to recover from an additional 33.9 % of soft errors that are undetected by a symptom-only approach, achieving an overall user-visible failure rate of 1.6%. This reliability improvement comes at a
The irritable bowel syndrome; a review and a graduated multicomponent treatment approach
- Annals of Internal Medicine
, 1992
"... • The irritable bowel syndrome is a common chronic disorder having a broad clinical spectrum of severity. Although only a small proportion of those afflicted seek medical help for their symptoms, a subset have severe and intractable symptoms. A positive diagnosis should be established from the histo ..."

Exception Handling in Agent Systems
- PROC. OF THE 3RD INT. CONFERENCE ON AUTONOMOUS AGENTS
, 1999
"... A critical challenge to creating effective agent-based systems is allowing them to operate effectively when the operating environment is complex, dynamic, and error-prone. In this paper we will review the limitations of current "agent-local" approaches to exception handling in agent system ..."

Approach to Third Cranial
, 1986
"... Sixty-three patients with third cranial nerve palsies (CNPs), either isolated (31) or in association with other neurologic deficits (32), underwent neuroophthalmologic and neuroradiologic evaluation. Discrepancies between the clinical and radiologic evalua-tions were analyzed and useful clinical pre ..."
New Invasive Approaches to Atrial Fibrillation
"... any patients with atrial fibril-lation (AF) remain sympto-matic despite attempts to control sinus rhythm with antiarrhythmic agents such as propafenone, sotalol, or amiodarone. The limit-ed efficacy of such pharmacologic agents as well as their high potential for adverse effects have high-lighted th ..."

Current endoscopic ultrasound-guided approach to incidental subepithelial lesions: optimal or optional?
"... Subepithelial lesions (SEL) are regularly encountered as incidental findings during endoscopic procedures with an estimated incidence of approximately 1 in 300 patients [1]. Only a minority of SEL presents with clinical symptoms and complications ..."

AN APPROACH TO CHRONIC FATIGUE SYNDROME IN ADULTS
"... BACKGROUND – The neurologist is often asked to evaluate patients with a chief complaint of fatigue. Many neurologists do not believe in the pathologically based disease known as chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), yet as a group, neurologists are well suited to guide the diagnostic work up of such patie ..."

work in virology, immunology, and imaging holds promise but still does not provide any diagnostic test or a mechanism for the production of these symptoms. Only a few treatments meet with even modest success in CFS. The goal of this paper is to provide the clinical neurologist with a framework
Anonymization of Set-Valued Data via Top-Down, Local Generalization
, 2009

Set-valued data, in which a set of values are associated with an individual, is common in databases ranging from market basket data, to medical databases of patients ’ symptoms and behaviors, to query engine search logs. Anonymizing this data is important if we are to reconcile the conflicting deman ..."

A Memory Symptom-based Virus Detection Approach
, 2005
"... The widespread use of the Internet has caused computer security to become an important issue. Currently, antivirus software is the primary mechanism that prevents computers from the damage of viruses. Such a mechanism relies on the update of virus patterns (or signatures) to detect new viruses. Howe ..."
