The key to developing a parallel inference algorithm is to exploit or introduce independencies. In the sequential Monte Carlo samplers, this independence can lead to high variance in the resulting estimate. In [other algorithms], the independence is only achieved by introducing approximations. 2, record 3, English, - parallel%20inference%20algorithm

The progression of troubleshooting algorithms is based upon a qualitative approach... The method... is based upon the fundamental idea of a circuit, and is similar to that of the zero-order models... In a series circuit, one source of faults is the occurrence of opens within either of these paths, which will prevent current from flowing... Another source of faults is the presence of shorts to ground, which introduces non-resistive parallel paths into the circuit.... Opens and shorts to ground are types of faults that the troubleshooting algorithm is designed to diagnose. 2, record 7, English, - troubleshooting%20algorithm
