On factor graphs and electrical networks

From MaRDI portal





The authors use factor graphs with origins in coding theory in order to express a one-to-one correspondence between a class of static electrical circuits and multivariable probability distributions. The factor graphs appear as variational representations of electrical networks. It is shown that the sum-product and max-product algorithm coincide, for the classical linear state space models, with Kalman filtering. Circuit theory interpretations are disscussed as well. For the entire collection see [Zbl 1024.00040].
