The Necessity of Bounded Treewidth for Efficient Inference in Bayesian Networks
Abstract. Algorithms for probabilistic inference in Bayesian networks are known to have running times that are worst-case exponential in the size of the network. For networks with ...

Combining discriminative features to infer complex trajectories
We propose a new model for the probabilistic estimation of continuous state variables from a sequence of observations, such as tracking the position of an object in video. This ma...

Bayesian Inference for PCFGs via Markov Chain Monte Carlo
This paper presents two Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms for Bayesian inference of probabilistic context free grammars (PCFGs) from terminal strings, providing an altern...

Variational inference for Student-t MLP models
This paper presents a novel methodology to infer parameters of probabilistic models whose output noise is a Student-t distribution. The method is an extension of earlier work for ...

Variable module graphs: a framework for inference and learning in modular vision systems
We present a novel and intuitive framework for building modular vision systems for complex tasks such as surveillance applications. Inspired by graphical models, especially factor...
