Most probabilistic inference algorithms are specified and processed on a propositional level. In the last decade, many proposals for algorithms accepting first-order specificat...
Dynamic Bayesian networks are structured representations of stochastic processes. Despite their structure, exact inference in DBNs is generally intractable. One approach to approx...
We present a simple, effective generalisation of variable order Markov
models to full online Bayesian estimation. The mechanism used is close
to that employed in context tree wei...
We propose a method to improve approximate inference methods by correcting for the influence of loops in the graphical model. The method is a generalization and alternative implem...
We present a novel dual decomposition approach to MAP inference with highly connected discrete graphical models. Decompositions into cyclic k-fan structured subproblems are shown t...
