A series of corrections is developed for the fixed points of Expectation Propagation (EP), which is one of the most popular methods for approximate probabilistic inference. These ...
Abstract. Rating players in sports competitions based on game results is one example of paired comparison data analysis. Since an exact Bayesian treatment is intractable, several t...
In many real-world classification problems the input contains a large number of potentially irrelevant features. This paper proposes a new Bayesian framework for determining the r...

We consider the problem of correcting the posterior marginal approximations computed by expectation propagation and Laplace approximation in latent Gaussian models and propose cor...
