In non-ergodic belief networks the posterior belief of many queries given evidence may become zero. The paper shows that when belief propagation is applied iteratively over arbitr...
The paper investigates parameterized approximate message-passing schemes that are based on bounded inference and are inspired by Pearl’s belief propagation algorithm (BP). We st...

Belief propagation is a popular global optimization technique for many computer vision problems. However, it requires extensive computation due to the iterative message passing op...
—The multiple-access framework of ZigZag decoding [1] is a useful technique for combating interference via multiple repeated transmissions, and is known to be compatible with dis...

We present a dual decomposition approach to the treereweighted belief propagation objective. Each tree in the tree-reweighted bound yields one subproblem, which can be solved with...
