In this paper we prove that the well-known correspondence between the forward-backward algorithm for hidden Markov models (HMMs) and belief propagation (BP) applied to HMMs can be...
We provide provably privacy-preserving versions of belief propagation, Gibbs sampling, and other local algorithms — distributed multiparty protocols in which each party or verte...
Rather than the difficulties of highly non-linear and non-Gaussian observation process and the state distribution in single target tracking, the presence of a large, varying number...
— We consider the problem of tracking multiple moving robots using noisy sensing of inter-robot and interbeacon distances. Sensing is local: there are three fixed beacons at kno...
