Loopy and generalized belief propagation are popular algorithms for approximate inference in Markov random fields and Bayesian networks. Fixed points of these algorithms correspo...
We present a novel technique for approximating the boundary of a swept volume. The generator given by an input triangle mesh is rendered under all rigid transformations of a discr...

Basic data flow patterns which we call idioms, such as stream, transpose, reduction, random access and stencil, are common in scientific numerical applications. We hypothesize tha...

Let Rd be a compact convex set of positive measure. In a recent paper, we established a definiteness theory for cubature formulae of order two on . Here we study extremal propert...
Local computation in join trees or acyclic hypertrees has been shown to be linked to a particular algebraic structure, called valuation algebra. There are many models of this alge...
