Belief propagation

ID: belief-propagation

Belief propagation (BP) is an algorithm used for performing inference on graphical models, particularly in the context of probabilistic graphical models such as Bayesian networks and Markov random fields. Its primary purpose is to compute marginal distributions of a subset of variables given some observed data. ### Key Concepts: 1. **Graphical Models**: These represent relationships among variables using graphs where nodes represent random variables and edges represent probabilistic dependencies.
