New algorithm learns Gaussian graphical models from single trajectory

Researchers have developed a new polynomial-time algorithm capable of recovering the conditional-independence graph of a Gaussian graphical model from a single trajectory of Glauber dynamics. This method does not require the trajectory to reach its mixing time, addressing a gap in current capabilities for temporally correlated observations. The algorithm involves estimating conditional variances, rescaling the trajectory, and employing a local edge test with a robust median-based estimator to ensure accuracy despite temporal dependencies. AI
