Factor graphs and the sum-product algorithm

Algorithms that must deal with complicated global functions of many variables often exploit the manner in which the given functions factor as a product of "local" functions, eac...

Clustering by Passing Messages Between Data Points

Clustering data by identifying a subset of representative examples is important for processing sensory signals and detecting patterns in data. Such “exemplars” can be found by r...

Deep surveying of alternative splicing complexity in the human transcriptome by high-throughput sequencing

Iterative decoding of compound codes by probability propagation in graphical models

We present a unified graphical model framework for describing compound codes and deriving iterative decoding algorithms. After reviewing a variety of graphical models (Markov ra...

Graphical Models for Machine Learning and Digital Communication

A variety of problems in machine learning and digital communication deal with complex but structured natural or artificial systems. In this book, Brendan Frey uses graphical mod...

Genome-wide analysis of mouse transcripts using exon microarrays and factor graphs
