Convexity Arguments for Efficient Minimization of the Bethe and Kikuchi Free Energies
Loopy and generalized belief propagation are popular algorithms for approximate inference in Markov random fields and Bayesian networks. Fixed points of these algorithms have been...

A Double-Loop Algorithm to Minimize the Bethe Free Energy
Recent work (Yedidia, Freeman, Weiss [22]) has shown that stable points of belief propagation (BP) algorithms [12] for graphs with loops correspond to extrema of the Bethe free ene...
