Inference problems in graphical models can be represented as a constrained optimization of a free energy function. It is known that when the Bethe free energy is used, the fixedpo...
We introduce a new type of graphical model called a `cumulative distribution network' (CDN), which expresses a joint cumulative distribution as a product of local functions. ...
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...
Precision achieved by stochastic sampling algorithms for Bayesian networks typically deteriorates in face of extremely unlikely evidence. To address this problem, we propose the E...
In this paper, we propose a high-quality multi-view depth generation method using multiple color and depth cameras. After we capture low-resolution depth maps by three TOF cameras...
