Online Memorization of Random Firing Sequences by a Recurrent Neural Network

Patrick Murer, Hans-Andrea Loeliger

This paper studies the capability of a recurrent neural network model to memorize random dynamical firing patterns by a simple local learning rule. Two modes of learning/memorizati…

Simultaneous Partial Inverses and Decoding Interleaved Reed-Solomon Codes

Jiun-Hung Yu, Hans-Andrea Loeliger

The paper introduces the simultaneous partial-inverse problem (SPI) for polynomials and develops its application to decoding interleaved Reed--Solomon codes beyond half the minimum…

On Sparsity by NUV-EM, Gaussian Message Passing, and Kalman Smoothing

Hans-Andrea Loeliger, Lukas Bruderer, Hampus Malmberg +2

Normal priors with unknown variance (NUV) have long been known to promote sparsity and to blend well with parameter learning by expectation maximization (EM). In this paper, we adv…

Factor Graphs for Quantum Probabilities

Hans-Andrea Loeliger, Pascal O. Vontobel

A factor-graph representation of quantum-mechanical probabilities (involving any number of measurements) is proposed. Unlike standard statistical models, the proposed representatio…

Partition Function of the Ising Model via Factor Graph Duality

Mehdi Molkaraie, Hans-Andrea Loeliger

The partition function of a factor graph and the partition function of the dual factor graph are related to each other by the normal factor graph duality theorem. We apply this res…

LMMSE Estimation and Interpolation of Continuous-Time Signals from Discrete-Time Samples Using Factor Graphs

Lukas Bolliger, Hans-Andrea Loeliger, Christian Vogel

The factor graph approach to discrete-time linear Gaussian state space models is well developed. The paper extends this approach to continuous-time linear systems/filters that are…

Reverse Berlekamp-Massey Decoding

Jiun-Hung Yu, Hans-Andrea Loeliger

We propose a new algorithm for decoding Reed-Solomon codes (up to half the minimum distance) and for computing inverses in . The proposed algorithm is similar in spirit…

On Polynomial Remainder Codes

Jiun-Hung Yu, Hans-Andrea Loeliger

Polynomial remainder codes are a large class of codes derived from the Chinese remainder theorem that includes Reed-Solomon codes as a special case. In this paper, we revisit these…

A Factor-Graph Representation of Probabilities in Quantum Mechanics

Hans-Andrea Loeliger, Pascal O. Vontobel

A factor-graph representation of quantum-mechanical probabilities is proposed. Unlike standard statistical models, the proposed representation uses auxiliary variables (state varia…

Monte Carlo Algorithms for the Partition Function and Information Rates of Two-Dimensional Channels

Mehdi Molkaraie, Hans-Andrea Loeliger

The paper proposes Monte Carlo algorithms for the computation of the information rate of two-dimensional source/channel models. The focus of the paper is on binary-input channels w…

Expectation Maximization as Message Passing - Part I: Principles and Gaussian Messages

Justin Dauwels, Andrew Eckford, Sascha Korl +1

It is shown how expectation maximization (EM) may be viewed as a message passing algorithm in factor graphs. In particular, a general EM message computation rule is identified. As…

A general computation rule for lossy summaries/messages with examples from equalization

Junli Hu, Hans-Andrea Loeliger, Justin Dauwels +1

Elaborating on prior work by Minka, we formulate a general computation rule for lossy messages. An important special case (with many applications in communications) is the conversi…

Expectation maximization as message passing

J. Dauwels, S. Korl, H. -A. Loeliger

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.
