We present a new implementation of the Cluster Variational Method (CVM) as a message passing algorithm. The kind of message passing algorithms used for CVM, usually named Generalized Belief Propagation, are a generalization of the Belief…
Generalized belief propagation (GBP) has proven to be a promising technique for approximate inference tasks in AI and machine learning. However, the choice of a good set of clusters to be used in GBP has remained more of an art then a…
The cluster variation method has been developed into a general theoretical framework for treating short-range correlations in many-body systems after it was first proposed by Kikuchi in 1951. On the numerical side, a message-passing…
The cluster variation - Pade` approximant method is a recently proposed tool, based on the extrapolation of low/high temperature results obtained with the cluster variation method, for the determination of critical parameters in Ising-like…
We give explicit formulas of the Bethe approximation with multipoint correlations for systems with magnetic field. The obtained formulas include the closed form of the magnetization and the correlations between adjacent degrees of freedom.…
Belief propagation is a fundamental message-passing algorithm for numerous applications in machine learning. It is known that belief propagation algorithm is exact on tree graphs. However, belief propagation is run on loopy graphs in most…
Gaussian belief propagation (GBP) is a recursive computation method that is widely used in inference for computing marginal distributions efficiently. Depending on how the factorization of the underlying joint Gaussian distribution is…
The paper presents an iterative version of join-tree clustering that applies the message passing of join-tree clustering algorithm to join-graphs rather than to join-trees, iteratively. It is inspired by the success of Pearl's belief…
Belief propagation is a fundamental message-passing algorithm for probabilistic reasoning and inference in graphical models. While it is known to be exact on trees, in most applications belief propagation is run on graphs with cycles.…
Belief propagation is a widely used message passing method for the solution of probabilistic models on networks such as epidemic models, spin models, and Bayesian graphical models, but it suffers from the serious shortcoming that it works…
Variational inference algorithms such as belief propagation have had tremendous impact on our ability to learn and use graphical models, and give many insights for developing or understanding exact and approximate inference. However,…
Recent years have seen a growing interest in the use of belief propagation - an algorithm originally introduced for performing statistical inference on graphical models - for approximate, but highly efficient, tensor network contraction.…
We consider the problem of reconstructing sparse symmetric block models with two blocks and connection probabilities $a/n$ and $b/n$ for inter- and intra-block edge probabilities, respectively. It was recently shown that one can do better…
We consider the estimation of an i.i.d.\ random vector observed through a linear transform followed by a componentwise, probabilistic (possibly nonlinear) measurement channel. A novel algorithm, called generalized approximate message…
A susceptibility propagation that is constructed by combining a belief propagation and a linear response method is used for approximate computation for Markov random fields. Herein, we formulate a new, improved susceptibility propagation by…
We present highly accurate Monte Carlo results for simple cubic Ising lattices containing up to $256^3$ spins. These results were obtained by means of the Cluster Processor, a newly built special-purpose computer for the Wolff cluster…
The random field Ising model with Gaussian disorder is studied using a new Monte Carlo algorithm. The algorithm combines the advantanges of the replica exchange method and the two-replica cluster method and is much more efficient than the…
