                                  | 1. Robust Message-Passing for Distributed Inference (DISTIN) |  
                                  | Develop robust, efficient message-passing algorithms for effective  inference, learning and control in wireless sensor networks and other  distributed systems. These algorithms must perform the global inference  and optimization tasks required by sensor network applications, while  being robust to network losses and failures, and limiting communication  and power requirements. Our efficient method is leveraged by powerful  representation and inference approaches from probabilistic graphical  models, and by novel networking and message passing algorithms  (cross-layer optimizations) in a comprehensive study on the tradeoffs among delay, energy efficiency, accuracy (approximation rate), and computational complexity...
