Bucket elimination is an algorithmic framework that generalizes dynamic programming to accommodate many problem-solving and reasoning tasks. Algorithms such as directional-resolut...
— Many inference problems that arise in sensor networks require the computation of a global conclusion that is consistent with local information known to each node. A large class...
Bayesian networks (BNs) have been widely used as a model for knowledge representation and probabilistic inferences. However, the single probability representation of conditional d...
As richer models for stereo vision are constructed, there is a growing interest in learning model parameters. To estimate parameters in Markov Random Field (MRF) based stereo formu...
Noisy probabilistic relational rules are a promising world model representation for several reasons. They are compact and generalize over world instantiations. They are usually in...
