Maximum a posteriori (MAP) inference in graphical models requires that we maximize the sum of two terms: a data-dependent term, encoding the conditional likelihood of a certain la...
We propose an unsupervised, probabilistic method for learning visual feature hierarchies. Starting from local, low-level features computed at interest point locations, the method c...
This paper interprets image interpolation as a channel decoding problem and proposes a tanner graph based interpolation framework, which regards each pixel in an image as a variab...
We introduce a computationally efficient method to estimate the validity of the BP method as a function of graph topology, the connectivity strength, frustration and network size....
We define an abstract model of belief propagation on a graph based on the methodology of the revision theory of truth together with the Assertion Network Toolkit, a graphical inter...
