Computational methods for complex stochastic systems: a review of some alternatives to MCMC
We consider analysis of complex stochastic models based upon partial information. MCMC and reversible jump MCMC are often the methods of choice for such problems, but in some situ...

What Cannot be Learned with Bethe Approximations
We address the problem of learning the parameters in graphical models when inference is intractable. A common strategy in this case is to replace the partition function with its B...

PUMA: Planning Under Uncertainty with Macro-Actions
Planning in large, partially observable domains is challenging, especially when a long-horizon lookahead is necessary to obtain a good policy. Traditional POMDP planners that plan...

Multi-Target Tracking of Time-varying Spatial Patterns
Time-varying spatial patterns are common, but few computational tools exist for discovering and tracking multiple, sometimes overlapping, spatial structures of targets. We propose...

Photometric stereo with coherent outlier handling and confidence estimation
In photometric stereo a robust method is required to deal with outliers, such as shadows and non-Lambertian reflections. In this paper we rely on a probabilistic imaging model tha...
