We present a novel message passing algorithm for approximating the MAP problem in graphical models. The algorithm is similar in structure to max-product but unlike max-product it ...
Recently, there has been substantial interest in the design of crosslayer protocols for wireless networks. These protocols optimize certain performance metric(s) of interest (e.g....
