On the Cost of Network Inference Mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems, 2011
A number of network path delay, loss, or bandwidth inference mechanisms have been proposed over the past decade. Concurrently, several network measurement services have been deployed over the Internet and intranets. We consider inference mechanisms that use O(n) end-to-end measurements to predict the O(n2) end-to-end pairwise measurements among n nodes,

Causal inference, mechanisms, and the Semmelweis case [PDF]

open access: yesStudies in History and Philosophy of Science Part A, 2013
Semmelweis's discovery of the cause of puerperal fever around the middle of the 19th century counts among the paradigm cases of scientific discovery. For several decades, philosophers of science have used the episode to illustrate, appraise and compare ...

On the Utility of Inference Mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes2009 29th IEEE International Conference on Distributed Computing Systems, 2009
A number of network path delay, loss, or bandwidth inference mechanisms have been proposed over the past decade. Concurrently, several network measurement services have been deployed over the Internet and intranets. We consider inference mechanisms that use O(n) end-to-end measurements to predict the O(n^2) end-to-end pairwise measurements among n ...

Cognitive mechanisms of transitive inference

Experimental Brain Research, 2002
We examined how the brain organizes interrelated facts during learning and how the facts are subsequently manipulated in a transitive inference (TI) paradigm (e.g., if ...

Inference to the best explanation and mechanisms in medicine

Theoretical Medicine and Bioethics, 2016
This article considers the prospects of inference to the best explanation (IBE) as a method of confirming causal claims vis-à-vis the medical evidence of mechanisms. I show that IBE is actually descriptive of how scientists reason when choosing among hypotheses, that it is amenable to the balance/weight distinction, a pivotal pair of concepts in the ...

A graphical inference mechanism

Expert Systems, 1987
Abstract: This paper describes an inference system which lends itself to graphical representation. An implementation of the system is described, and its application in a legislation based domain is illustrated. The methodology for knowledge elicitation which the system is intended to support is briefly indicated.
