Computing Marginals with Hierarchical Acyclic Hypergraphs
How to compute marginals efficiently is one of major concerned problems in probabilistic reasoning systems. Traditional graphical models do not preserve all conditional independen...

Best-First AND/OR Search for Graphical Models
The paper presents and evaluates the power of best-first search over AND/OR search spaces in graphical models. The main virtue of the AND/OR representation is its sensitivity to ...

Principal component analysis in decomposable Gaussian graphical models
We consider principal component analysis (PCA) in decomposable Gaussian graphical models. We exploit the prior information in these models in order to distribute its computation. ...

Tracking Complex Objects Using Graphical Object Models
We present a probabilistic framework for component-based automatic detection and tracking of objects in video. We represent objects as spatio-temporal two-layer graphical models, w...

A Hybrid Framework for Image Segmentation Using Probabilistic Integration of Heterogeneous Constraints
In this paper we present a new framework for image segmentation using probabilistic multinets. We apply this framework to integration of regionbased and contour-based segmentation ...
