— Smoothing and optimization approaches are an effective means for solving the simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) problem. Most of the existing techniques focus mainly ...

We propose a novel bound on single-variable marginal probability distributions in factor graphs with discrete variables. The bound is obtained by propagating local bounds (convex ...
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...
We present a novel method for approximate inference in Bayesian models and regularized risk functionals. It is based on the propagation of mean and variance derived from the Lapla...

In this paper, we study multiple target detection using Bayesian learning. The main aim of the paper is to present a computationally efficient way to compute the belief map update ...
