Message-passing for Maximum Weight Independent Set
Abstract--In this paper, we investigate the use of messagepassing algorithms for the problem of finding the max-weight independent set (MWIS) in a graph. First, we study the perfor...

Max-Product for Maximum Weight Matching: Convergence, Correctness, and LP Duality
Abstract--Max-product "belief propagation" (BP) is an iterative, message-passing algorithm for finding the maximum a posteriori (MAP) assignment of a discrete probability...

New Look-Ahead Schemes for Constraint Satisfaction
This paper presents new look-ahead schemes for backtracking search when solving constraint satisfaction problems. The look-ahead schemes compute a heuristic for value ordering and...

Modelling Uncertainty in the Game of Go
Go is an ancient oriental game whose complexity has defeated attempts to automate it. We suggest using probability in a Bayesian sense to model the uncertainty arising from the va...

Alphabet SOUP: A Framework for Approximate Energy Minimization
Many problems in computer vision can be modeled using conditional Markov random fields (CRF). Since finding the maximum a posteriori (MAP) solution in such models is NP-hard, mu...
