Logic sampling, likelihood weighting and AIS-BN : an exploration of importance sampling

Creator:

Wang, Haiou

Abstract:

Logic Sampling, Likelihood Weighting and AIS-BN are three variants of stochastic sampling, one class of approximate inference for Bayesian networks. We summarize the ideas underlying each algorithm and the relationship among them. The results from a set of empirical experiments comparing Logic Sampling, Likelihood Weighting and AIS-BN are presented. We...

AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Haiou Wang for the degree of
The role of copper and its chelation by tetrathiomolybdate in inflammation and atherosclerosis

Creator:

Wei, Hao

Abstract:

Endothelial activation with increased expression of cellular adhesion molecules, chemokines and pro-inflammatory cytokines critically contributes to vascular inflammation and the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis. By affecting redox-sensitive cell signaling pathways and transcription factors, redox-active transition metal ions, such as copper and iron, may play an important role in these...
