Alternating Directions Dual Decomposition
Andre F. T. Martins, Mario A. T. Figueiredo, Pedro M. Q. Aguiar +2
We propose AD3, a new algorithm for approximate maximum a posteriori (MAP) inference on factor graphs based on the alternating directions method of multipliers. Like dual decomposi…
Real-valued All-Dimensions search: Low-overhead rapid searching over subsets of attributes
Andrew Moore, Jeff Schneider
This paper is about searching the combinatorial space of contingency tables during the inner loop of a nonlinear statistical optimization. Examples of this operation in various dat…
Distributed Planning in Hierarchical Factored MDPs
Carlos E. Guestrin, Geoffrey Gordon
We present a principled and efficient planning algorithm for collaborative multiagent dynamical systems. All computation, during both the planning and the execution phases, is dist…
Strong Faithfulness and Uniform Consistency in Causal Inference
Jiji Zhang, Peter L. Spirtes
A fundamental question in causal inference is whether it is possible to reliably infer manipulation effects from observational data. There are a variety of senses of asymptotic rel…
Decentralized Sensor Fusion With Distributed Particle Filters
Matthew Rosencrantz, Geoffrey Gordon, Sebastian Thrun
This paper presents a scalable Bayesian technique for decentralized state estimation from multiple platforms in dynamic environments. As has long been recognized, centralized archi…
A Maximum Likelihood Approach For Selecting Sets of Alternatives
Ariel D. Procaccia, Sashank J. Reddi, Nisarg Shah
We consider the problem of selecting a subset of alternatives given noisy evaluations of the relative strength of different alternatives. We wish to select a k-subset (for a given…
