ESTIMATING HETEROGENEOUS GRAPHICAL MODELS FOR DISCRETE DATA WITH AN APPLICATION TO ROLL CALL VOTING

We consider the problem of jointly estimating a collection of graphical models for discrete data, corresponding to several categories that share some common structure. An example for such a setting is ...
