Approximate inference in probabilistic graphical models (PGMs) can be grouped
into deterministic methods and Monte-Carlo-based methods. The former can often
provide accurate and rapid inferences, but are typically associated with biases
that are hard to quantify. The latter enjoy asymptotic consistency, but can suffer
from high computational costs. In this paper we present a way of bridging the
gap between deterministic and stochastic inference. Specifically, we suggest an
efficient sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) algorithm for PGMs which can leverage
the output from deterministic inference methods. While generally applicable, we
show explicitly how this can be done with loopy belief propagation, expectation
propagation, and Laplace approximations. The resulting algorithm can be viewed as
a post-correction of the biases associated with these methods and, indeed, numerical
results show clear improvements over the baseline deterministic methods as well
as over “plain” SMC.

Modeling Forest Tree Data Using Sequential Spatial Point Processes
Yazigi, Adil; Penttinen, Antti; Ylitalo, Anna-Kaisa; Maltamo, Matti; Packalen, Petteri; Mehtätalo, Lauri (Springer, 2022)The spatial structure of a forest stand is typically modeled by spatial point process models. Motivated by aerial forest inventories and forest dynamics in general, we propose a sequential spatial approach for modeling ... -
Bayesian Modeling of Sequential Discoveries
Zito, Alessandro; Rigon, Tommaso; Ovaskainen, Otso; Dunson, David B. (Taylor & Francis, 2022)We aim at modelling the appearance of distinct tags in a sequence of labelled objects. Common examples of this type of data include words in a corpus or distinct species in a sample. These sequential discoveries are often ... -
Optimization of Linearized Belief Propagation for Distributed Detection
Abdi, Younes; Ristaniemi, Tapani (IEEE, 2020)In this paper, we investigate distributed inference schemes, over binary-valued Markov random fields, which are realized by the belief propagation (BP) algorithm. We first show that a decision variable obtained by the BP ... -
