Communication-Efficient Distributed Statistical Inference
We present a Communication-efficient Surrogate Likelihood (CSL) framework for solving distributed statistical inference problems. CSL provides a communication-efficient surrogate to the global likelihood that can be used for low-dimensional estimation, high-dimensional regularized estimation and Bayesian inference. For low-dimensional estimation, CSL provably improves upon naive averaging schem...
متن کاملCommunication-efficient Distributed Estimation and Inference for Transelliptical Graphical Models∗
We propose communication-efficient distributed estimation and inference methods for the transelliptical graphical model, a semiparametric extension of the elliptical distribution in the high dimensional regime. In detail, the proposed method distributes the d-dimensional data of size N generated from a transelliptical graphical model into m worker machines, and estimates the latent precision ma...
متن کاملScalable Algorithms for Distributed Statistical Inference
The classical framework on distributed inference considers a set of nodes taking measurements and a fusion center making the final decision on the underlying phenomenon, without dealing with the issue of transporting the measurements to the fusion center. Such an approach introduces significant overhead in communication. Communicating all the raw data for inference is not scalable: in this case...
متن کاملMessage Passing and Distributed Statistical Inference
In this paper, we summarize several research directions involving message-passing algorithms and distributed fusion. The starting point is inference for graphical models, but the different constraints and objectives found in sensor networks suggest new questions. In addition to providing pointers to a variety of other parts of our research in this area, we spend most of our time on two research...
متن کاملEfficient Statistical Methods for 3D Shape Inference
Visual inference is a complex and ambiguous problem, and these properties have presented a significant obstacle to developing effective algorithms for many visual tasks. In this thesis, I begin by developing a methodology for statistical inference that is particularly suited for the complex tasks of visual perception. The approach is based on Belief Propagation, a highly successful inference te...
