A Comparative Study of Variable Elimination and Arc Reversal in Bayesian Network Inference
We compare two approaches to Bayesian network inference, called variable elimination (VE) and arc reversal (AR). It is established that VE never requires more space than AR, and n...

A Comparison of Time-Space Schemes for Graphical Models
We investigate three parameterized algorithmic schemes for graphical models that can accommodate trade-offs between time and space: 1) AND/OR Adaptive Caching (AOC(i)); 2) Variabl...

A Memetic Algorithm with Bucket Elimination for the Still Life Problem
Abstract. Bucket elimination (BE) is an exact technique based on variable elimination, commonly used for solving constraint satisfaction problems. We consider the hybridization of ...

Boosting Search with Variable Elimination
Abstract. Variable elimination is the basic step of Adaptive Consistency 4 . It transforms the problem into an equivalent one, having one less variable. Unfortunately, there are ma...

Using Constraints with Memory to Implement Variable Elimination
Abstract. Adaptive consistency is a solving algorithm for constraint networks. Its basic step is variable elimination: it takes a network as input, and producesan equivalent networ...

Using the Max-Plus Algorithm for Multiagent Decision Making in Coordination Graphs
Abstract. Coordination graphs offer a tractable framework for cooperative multiagent decision making by decomposing the global payoff function into a sum of local terms. Each age...
