Belief propagation is shown to be an instance of a hybrid between two projection algorithms in the convex programming literature: Dykstra's algorithm with cyclic Bregman proje...
Abstract. This paper introduces a framework based on multi-agent system for solving problems of combinatorial optimization. The framework allows running various metaheuristic algor...
