The Markov basis of

Johannes Rauh, Seth Sullivant

This document explains how to obtain a Markov basis of the graphical model of the complete bipartite graph with binary nodes. The computations illustrate the theory devel…

Expressive Power and Approximation Errors of Restricted Boltzmann Machines

Guido Montufar, Johannes Rauh, Nihat Ay

We present explicit classes of probability distributions that can be learned by Restricted Boltzmann Machines (RBMs) depending on the number of units that they contain, and which a…

Reconsidering unique information: Towards a multivariate information decomposition

Johannes Rauh, Nils Bertschinger, Eckehard Olbrich +1

The information that two random variables , contain about a third random variable can have aspects of shared information (contained in both and ), of complementar…

Lifting Markov Bases and Higher Codimension Toric Fiber Products

Johannes Rauh, Seth Sullivant

We study how to lift Markov bases and Gröbner bases along linear maps of lattices. We give a lifting algorithm that allows to compute such bases iteratively provided a certain asso…

On the Fisher Metric of Conditional Probability Polytopes

Guido Montufar, Johannes Rauh, Nihat Ay

We consider three different approaches to define natural Riemannian metrics on polytopes of stochastic matrices. First, we define a natural class of stochastic maps between these p…

The Blackwell relation defines no lattice

Nils Bertschinger, Johannes Rauh

Blackwell's theorem shows the equivalence of two preorders on the set of information channels. Here, we restate, and slightly generalize, his result in terms of random variables. F…
