Abstract Bayesian inference models are specially useful in the description of processes in which, from noise-corrupted measurements, one wishes to estimate the systems current state. In the last decades, tools from the statistical mechanics of disordered systems have been used in the study of such models; in particular, in the last few years, it has been noted a great similarity between the cavity method and computational techniques known as message-passing algorithms. Such similarity allows for a theoretical analysis of the algorithms performance, as well of properties intrinsic to the inference model. We propose here to study this connection deeper, and to apply both the techniques in the study of specific models. (AU) | |
