Convergent Tree-reweighted Message Passing for Energy Minimization
- ACCEPTED TO IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON PATTERN ANALYSIS AND MACHINE INTELLIGENCE (PAMI), 2006. ABSTRACTACCEPTED TO IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON PATTERN ANALYSIS AND MACHINE INTELLIGENCE (PAMI)
, 2006
"... Algorithms for discrete energy minimization are of fundamental importance in computer vision. In this paper we focus on the recent technique proposed by Wainwright et al. [33]- tree-reweighted max-product message passing (TRW). It was inspired by the problem of maximizing a lower bound on the energy ..."

on the energy. However, the algorithm is not guaranteed to increase this bound- it may actually go down. In addition, TRW does not always converge. We develop a modification of this algorithm which we call sequential tree-reweighted message passing. Its main property is that the bound is guaranteed
Convergent Decomposition Solvers for Tree-reweighted Free Energies
"... We investigate minimization of treereweighted free energies for the purpose of obtaining approximate marginal probabilities and upper bounds on the partition function of cyclic graphical models. The solvers we present for this problem work by directly tightening tree-reweighted upper bounds. As a re ..."

Multitarget-Multisensor Data Association Using the Tree-Reweighted Max-Product Algorithm
- In SPIE Aerosense Conference
, 2003
"... Data association is a fundamental problem in multitarget-multisensor tracking. It entails selecting the most probable association between sensor measurements and target tracks from a very large set of possibilities. With N sensors and n targets in the detection range of each sensor, even with perfec ..."

-product/min-sum algorithm) can be applied. We use a tree-reweighted version of the usual max-product algorithm that either outputs the MAP data association, or acknowledges failure. For acyclic graphs, this message-passing algorithm can solve the data association problem directly and recursively with complexity
On the optimality of tree-reweighted max-product message passing
- In UAI
, 2005
"... Tree-reweighted max-product (TRW) message passing [9] is a modified form of the ordinary max-product algorithm for attempting to find minimal energy configurations in Markov random field with cycles. For a TRW fixed point satisfying the strong tree agreement condition, the algorithm outputs a config ..."

Design of capacity-approaching irregular low-density parity-check codes
- IEEE TRANS. INFORM. THEORY
, 2001
"... We design low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes that perform at rates extremely close to the Shannon capacity. The codes are built from highly irregular bipartite graphs with carefully chosen degree patterns on both sides. Our theoretical analysis of the codes is based on [1]. Assuming that the unde ..."

that the underlying communication channel is symmetric, we prove that the probability densities at the message nodes of the graph possess a certain symmetry. Using this symmetry property we then show that, under the assumption of no cycles, the message densities always converge as the number of iterations tends
Loopy belief propagation for approximate inference: An empirical study. In:
- Proceedings of Uncertainty in AI,
, 1999
"... Abstract Recently, researchers have demonstrated that "loopy belief propagation" -the use of Pearl's polytree algorithm in a Bayesian network with loops -can perform well in the context of error-correcting codes. The most dramatic instance of this is the near Shannon-limit performanc ..."

Delayed internet routing convergence
- ACM SIGCOMM Computer Communication Review
, 2000
"... Abstract—This paper examines the latency in Internet path failure, failover, and repair due to the convergence properties of interdomain routing. Unlike circuit-switched paths which exhibit failover on the order of milliseconds, our experimental mea-surements show that interdomain routers in the pac ..."

bound on Internet interdomain routing convergence delay is an order of magnitude slower than previously thought. Our analysis also shows that the upper theoretic computational bound on the number of router states and control messages exchanged during the process of BGP convergence is factorial
A comparative study of energy minimization methods for Markov random fields
- IN ECCV
, 2006
"... One of the most exciting advances in early vision has been the development of efficient energy minimization algorithms. Many early vision tasks require labeling each pixel with some quantity such as depth or texture. While many such problems can be elegantly expressed in the language of Markov Ran ..."

We investigate three promising recent methods—graph cuts, LBP, and tree-reweighted message passing—as well as the well-known older iterated conditional modes (ICM) algorithm. Our benchmark problems are drawn from published
