Exploiting Tractable Substructures in Intractable Networks

Lawrence K. Saul, Michael I. Jordan
1995 Neural Information Processing Systems  
Our mean field theory, unlike most, does not assume that the units behave as independent degrees of freedom; instead, it exploits in a principled way the existence of large substructures that are computationally  ...  We develop a refined mean field approximation for inference and learning in probabilistic neural networks.  ...  We describe a self-consistent approximation in which tractable substructures are handled by exact computations and only the remaining, intractable parts of the network are handled within mean field theory  ...

Tractable Variational Structures for Approximating Graphical Models

David Barber, Wim Wiegerinck
1998 Neural Information Processing Systems  
Within the variational framework for approximating these models, we present two classes of distributions, decimatable Boltzmann Machines and Tractable Belief Networks that go beyond the standard factorized  ...  Graphical models provide a broad probabilistic framework with applications in speech recognition (Hidden Markov Models), medical diagnosis (Belief networks) and artificial intelligence (Boltzmann Machines  ...  one undirected (decimatable BMs in section (3)) and the other, directed (Tractable Belief Networks in section ( 4 )) .  ...

Variational Approximations between Mean Field Theory and the Junction Tree Algorithm [article]

Wim Wiegerinck
2013 arXiv   pre-print
In addition, we address the problem of how to choose the graphical structure of the approximating distribution.  ...  From the generalised mean field equations we derive rules to simplify the structure of the approximating distribution in advance without affecting the quality of the approximation.  ...  It shows and clarifies in which cases the copied potentials of tractable substructures as originally proposed in are optimal.  ...

Approximate Inference by Compilation to Arithmetic Circuits

Daniel Lowd, Pedro M. Domingos
2010 Neural Information Processing Systems  
Arithmetic circuits (ACs) exploit context-specific independence and determinism to allow exact inference even in networks with high treewidth.  ...  In this paper, we introduce the first ever approximate inference methods using ACs, for domains where exact inference remains intractable.  ...  The views and conclusions contained in this document are those of the authors and should not be interpreted as necessarily representing the official policies, either expressed or implied, of ARO, DARPA  ...

Finding the most descriptive substructures in graphs with discrete and numeric labels

Michael Davis, Weiru Liu, Paul Miller
2013 Journal of Intelligent Information Systems  
Our thesis is that the most descriptive substructures are those which are normative both in terms of their structure and in terms of their numeric values.  ...  Most frequent substructure discovery algorithms ignore numeric attributes; in this paper we show how they can be used to improve search performance and discrimination.  ...  thank Erich Schubert at Ludwig-Maximilians Universität München for assistance with verifying our LOF implementation and providing us with the RP + PINN + LOF implementation ahead of its official release in  ...

Offline Model-Based Optimization via Normalized Maximum Likelihood Estimation [article]

Justin Fu, Sergey Levine
2021 arXiv   pre-print
While in the standard formulation NML is intractable, we propose a tractable approximation that allows us to scale our method to high-capacity neural network models.  ...  This problem setting emerges in many domains where function evaluation is a complex and expensive process, such as in the design of materials, vehicles, or neural network architectures.  ...  Bayesian modeling is generally intractable outside of special choices of the prior and model class Θ where conjugacy can be exploited.  ...

Using Combinatorial Optimization within Max-Product Belief Propagation

John C. Duchi, Daniel Tarlow, Gal Elidan, Daphne Koller
2006 Neural Information Processing Systems  
In general, the problem of computing a maximum a posteriori (MAP) assignment in a Markov random field (MRF) is computationally intractable.  ...  In this paper, we present a new method, called COMPOSE, for exploiting combinatorial optimization for sub-networks within the context of a max-product belief propagation algorithm.  ...  Even if MAP inference in the original network is intractable, it may be tractable in each of the sub-networks in the ensemble.  ...
