Island Algorithm

Machine Learning Algorithm

The island algorithm is an algorithm for performing inference on hidden Markov models, or their generalization, dynamic Bayesian networks. It calculates the marginal distribution for each unobserved node, conditional on whichever nodes have been observed.
