      Mini-Bucket Elimination (MBE) is a well-known approximation algorithm deriving lower and upper bounds on quantities of interest over graphical models. It relies on a procedure that partitions a set of functions, called ...

      We introduce the concept of local bucket error for the mini-bucket heuristics and show how it can be used to improve the power of AND/OR search for combinatorial optimization tasks in graphical models (e.g. MAP/MPE or ...

      Graphical models are one of the most prominent frameworks to model complex systems and efficiently query them. Their underlying algebraic properties are captured by a valuation structure that, most usually, is a semiring. ...
    • Subproblem ordering heuristics for AND/OR best-first search

      Accés obert
      Best-first search can be regarded as anytime scheme for producing lower bounds on the optimal solution, a characteristic that is mostly overlooked. We explore this topic in the context of AND/OR best-first search, guided ...
