Preemptive Detection of Fake Accounts on Social Networks via Multi-Class Preferential Attachment Classifiers
Adam Breuer, Nazanin Khosravani, Michael Tingley +1
In this paper, we describe a new algorithm called Preferential Attachment k-class Classifier (PreAttacK) for detecting fake accounts in a social network. Recently, several algorith…
Accelerating Metropolis-Hastings with Lightweight Inference Compilation
Feynman Liang, Nimar Arora, Nazanin Tehrani +3
In order to construct accurate proposers for Metropolis-Hastings Markov Chain Monte Carlo, we integrate ideas from probabilistic graphical models and neural networks in an open-sou…
PPL Bench: Evaluation Framework For Probabilistic Programming Languages
Sourabh Kulkarni, Kinjal Divesh Shah, Nimar Arora +9
We introduce PPL Bench, a new benchmark for evaluating Probabilistic Programming Languages (PPLs) on a variety of statistical models. The benchmark includes data generation and eva…
Uncertainty Estimation For Community Standards Violation In Online Social Networks
Narjes Torabi, Nimar S. Arora, Emma Yu +3
Online Social Networks (OSNs) provide a platform for users to share their thoughts and opinions with their community of friends or to the general public. In order to keep the platf…
Newtonian Monte Carlo: single-site MCMC meets second-order gradient methods
Nimar S. Arora, Nazanin Khosravani Tehrani, Kinjal Divesh Shah +7
Single-site Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) is a variant of MCMC in which a single coordinate in the state space is modified in each step. Structured relational models are a good c…
Searching for Planetary Transits in the Lupus Galactic Plane
David T. F Weldrake, Daniel D. R. Bayliss, Penny D Sackett +2
A 52'X52' field in the Lupus Galactic plane was observed with the ANU 1m telescope for 53 nights during 2005 and 2006 in a search for transiting Hot Jupiter planets. A total of 220…
