Local Conditioning: Exact Message Passing for Cyclic Undirected Distributed Networks
This paper addresses practical implementation of summing out, expanding, and reordering of messages in Local Conditioning (LC) for undirected networks. In particular, incoming messages conditioned on potentially different subsets of the receiving node's relevant set must be expanded to be conditioned on this relevant set, then reordered so that corresponding columns of the conditioned matrices can be fused through element-wise multiplication. An outgoing message is then reduced by summing out loop cutset nodes that are upstream of the outgoing edge. The emphasis on implementation is the primary contribution over the theoretical justification of LC given in Fay et al. Nevertheless, the complexity of Local Conditioning in grid networks is still no better than that of Clustering.

Local Message Passing on Frustrated Systems
Message passing on factor graphs is a powerful framework for probabilistic inference, which finds important applications in various scientific domains. The most wide-spread message passing scheme is the sum-product algor…

We show that the natural-gradient stationary condition of variational inference has an edge-local form on a Forney-style factor graph. We start from the Bethe free energy and constrain a selected edge marginal to an expo…
