چکیده

The paper proposes a new message passing algorithm for cycle-free factor graphs. The proposed ”entropy message passing” (EMP) algorithm may be viewed as sumproduct message passing over the entropy semiring, which has previously appeared in automata theory. The primary use of EMP is to compute the entropy of a model. However, EMP can also be used to compute expressions that appear in expectation maximization and in gradient descent algorithms.

Entropy Message Passing Algorithm

Message passing over factor graph can be considered as generalization of many well known algorithms for efficient marginalization of multivariate function. A specific instance of the algorithm is obtained by choosing an appropriate commutative semiring for the range of the function to be marginalized. Some examples are Viterbi algorithm, obtained on max-product semiring and forward-backward alg...

Unsupervised feature learning from finite data by message passing: discontinuous versus continuous phase transition

Unsupervised neural network learning extracts hidden features from unlabeled training data. This is used as a pretraining step for further supervised learning in deep networks. Hence, understanding unsupervised learning is of fundamental importance. Here, we study the unsupervised learning from a finite number of data, based on the restricted Boltzmann machine where only one hidden neuron is co...

Gradient computation in linear-chain conditional random fields using the entropy message passing algorithm

The paper proposes a new recursive algorithm for the exact computation of the linear chain conditional random fields gradient. The algorithm is an instance of the Entropy Message Passing (EMP), introduced in our previous work, and has the purpose to enhance memory efficiency when applied to long observation sequences. Unlike the traditional algorithm based on the forward and the backward recurs...
