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

MPI (Message Passing Interface) is a specification for a standard library for message passing that was defined by the MPI Forum, a broadly based group of parallel computer vendors, library writers, and applications specialists. Multiple implementations of MPI have been developed. In this paper, we

provide a means for the user or library writer effectively to extend a message-passing notation. In addition, a unified mechanism or object is needed for conveniently denoting communication context, the group of communicating processes, to house abstract process naming, and to store adornments. 1 2 3 4 5

In this paper, we present a general method for determining the capacity of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes under message-passing decoding when used over any binary-input memoryless channel with discrete or continuous output alphabets. Transmitting at rates below this capacity, a randomly

This paper presents Variational Message Passing (VMP), a general purpose algorithm for applying variational inference to a Bayesian Network. Like belief propagation, Variational Message Passing proceeds by passing messages between nodes in the graph and updating posterior beliefs using local

this paper, we use the terms event logging and message logging interchangeably

designed to be a standard for distributed memory message passing, parallel computing

Abstract. Theoretical models are difficult to apply for the analysis of practical message passing systems used today. We propose a model which can be used for such an analysis. Our framework for message passing is in many ways similar to the framework for transactional database systems

Abstract — Based on prior work by Eckford, it is shown how expectation maximization (EM) may be viewed, and used, as a message passing algorithm in factor graphs. I.

A majority of the MPP systems designed to date have been MIMD distributed memory systems. For almost all of these systems, message passing environments have provided the primary mechanism for programming multiprocessor applications. In this paper we provide an introduction to MPP systems in general
