    Copula PC Algorithm for Causal Discovery from Mixed Data

    We propose the ‘Copula PC’ algorithm for causal discovery from a combination of continuous and discrete data, assumed to be drawn from a Gaussian copula model. It is based on a two-step approach. The first ste...

    Causal Discovery from Medical Data: Dealing with Missing Values and a Mixture of Discrete and Continuous Data

    Causal discovery is an increasingly popular method for data analysis in the field of medical research. In this paper we consider two challenges in causal discovery that occur very often when working with medic...

    Causal Discovery from Databases with Discrete and Continuous Variables

    Bayesian Constraint-based Causal Discovery (BCCD) is a state-of-the-art method for robust causal discovery in the presence of latent variables. It combines probabilistic estimation of Bayesian networks over su...

    Adaptive Control Strategies for Productive Toner Printers

    This chapter discusses design considerations for industrial systems and processes when embedded systems allow to intelligently influence the system in real-time. It is shown that in such embedded systems the c...

    Learning from Multiple Annotators with Gaussian Processes

    In many supervised learning tasks it can be costly or infeasible to obtain objective, reliable labels. We may, however, be able to obtain a large number of subjective, possibly noisy, labels from multiple anno...

    Combining Task Execution and Background Knowledge for the Verification of Medical Guidelines

    The use of a medical guideline can be seen as the execution of computational tasks, sequentially or in parallel, in the face of patient data. It has been shown that many of such guidelines can be represented a...

    The Role of Model Checking in Critiquing Based on Clinical Guidelines

    Medical critiquing systems criticise clinical actions performed by a physician. In order to provide useful feedback, an important task is to find differences between the actual actions and a set of ‘ideal’ act...

    Scalable Instance Retrieval for the Semantic Web by Approximation

    Approximation has been identified as a potential way of reducing the complexity of logical reasoning. Here we explore approximation for speeding up instance retrieval in a Semantic Web context. For OWL ontolog...

    Approximating Description Logic Classification for Semantic Web Reasoning

    In many application scenarios, the use of the Web ontology language OWL is hampered by the complexity of the underlying logic that makes reasoning in OWL intractable in the worst case. In this paper, we addres...

    Formally Verifying Dynamic Properties of Knowledge Based Systems

    In this paper we study dynamic properties of knowledge-based systems. We argue the importance of such dynamic properties for the construction and analysis of knowledge-based systems. We present a case-study of...
