Approximate inference by Markov chains on union spaces
A standard method for approximating averages in probabilistic models is to construct a Markov chain in the product space of the random variables with the desired equilibrium distr...

Approximate Learning of Dynamic Models
Inference is a key component in learning probabilistic models from partially observable data. When learning temporal models, each of the many inference phases requires a complete ...

Approximate Inference in Credal Networks by Variational Mean Field Methods
Graph-theoretical representations for sets of probability measures (credal networks) generally display high complexity, and approximate inference seems to be a natural solution fo...

Probabilistic Inference from Arbitrary Uncertainty using Mixtures of Factorized Generalized Gaussians
This paper presents a general and efficient framework for probabilistic inference and learning from arbitrary uncertain information. It exploits the calculation properties of fini...

Probabilistic Inference in Queueing Networks
Although queueing models have long been used to model the performance of computer systems, they are out of favor with practitioners, because they have a reputation for requiring u...
