Probabilistic inference in graphical models is a prevalent task in statistics and artificial intelligence. The ability to perform this inference task efficiently is critical in l...
Belief propagation on cyclic graphs is an efficient algorithm for computing approximate marginal probability distributions over single nodes and neighboring nodes in the graph. I...
Matrix-vector products (mat-vecs) form the core of iterative methods used for solving dense linear systems. Often, these systems arise in the solution of integral equations used i...
With the increasing popularity of largescale probabilistic graphical models, even "lightweight" approximate inference methods are becoming infeasible. Fortunately, often...
In this contribution, new online EM algorithms are proposed to perform inference in general hidden Markov models. These algorithms update the parameter at some deterministic times ...
