An EM Technique for Multiple Transmitter Localization
— We propose an expectation-maximization (EM) technique for locating multiple transmitters based on power levels observed by a set of arbitrarily-placed receivers. Multiple trans...

Planar Cycle Covering Graphs
We describe a new variational lower-bound on the minimum energy configuration of a planar binary Markov Random Field (MRF). Our method is based on adding auxiliary nodes to every...

Lagrangian Relaxation for MAP Estimation in Graphical Models
Abstract— We develop a general framework for MAP estimation in discrete and Gaussian graphical models using Lagrangian relaxation techniques. The key idea is to reformulate an in...
