Tractable probabilistic models (TPMs) have attracted substantial research interest in recent years, particularly because of their ability to answer various reasoning queries in polynomial time. In this study, we focus on the distributionally robust learning of continuous TPMs and address the challen…
Temporal models such as Dynamic Bayesian Networks (DBNs) and Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) have been widely used to model time-dependent sequential data. Typically, these approaches limit focus to discrete domains, employ first-order Markov and stationary assumptions, and limit representational power…
Tractable models such as cutset networks and sum-product networks (SPNs) have become increasingly popular because they have superior predictive performance. Among them, cutset networks, which model the mechanics of Pearl’s cutset conditioning algorithm, demonstrate great scalability and prediction a…
Tractable probabilistic models (TPMs) are appealing because they admit polynomial-time inference for a wide variety of queries. In this work, we extend the cutset network (CN) framework, a powerful sub-class of TPMs that often outperforms probabilistic graphical models in terms of prediction accurac…
