Deep Belief Networks (DBN's) are generative models that contain many layers of hidden variables. Efficient greedy algorithms for learning and approximate inference have allow...
Graphical models are powerful tools for processing images. However, the large dimensionality of even local image data poses a difficulty: representing the range of possible graphi...

We present a new framework based on walks in a graph for analysis and inference in Gaussian graphical models. The key idea is to decompose the correlation between each pair of var...

In time series analysis, inference about causeeffect relationships among multiple times series is commonly based on the concept of Granger causality, which exploits temporal struc...
Recent research has made significant progress on the problem of bounding log partition functions for exponential family graphical models. Such bounds have associated dual paramete...
