Crash Course in Graphical Models, Part II, Theory and Applications

Abstract

The second part of the series will continue where the first part left off. I will introduce Markov networks and their relation to log-linear models, and will provide an overview of inference methods in both directed and undirected graphical models. Time permitting, I will present several applications of such techniques.
