置信度传播

置信度传播(英语:belief propagation),又称为乘积和信息传递sum-product message passing),是在贝叶斯网络马尔可夫随机场概率图模型中用于推断的一种信息传递算法。在给定已观测节点时,可以用该算法高效地计算未观测节点的边缘分布。置信度传播在人工智能信息论中十分常见,已成功应用于低密度奇偶检查码Turbo码自由能估计、可满足性英语Satisfiability等不同领域。[1]

置信度传播由美国计算机科学家朱迪亚·珀尔于1982年提出。[2]最初该算法的运用范围仅限于,不久则扩展到多树英语Polytree[3]此后,研究者发现在一般的图中该算法是一种十分有用的近似算法。[4]
