| Abstract: | Several techniques that help in treating Markovian models with inherently.large state-space am presented. The basic idea is expressed by a Representation Theorem that states the equivalence of results obtained either through a detailed solution or a properly estimated reduced transition matrix. The techniques either use "combinatorial placement models" that are very successful in spite of their arbitrary nature, or rely on the Maximum-Entropy Principle. A symmetric message passing system is used to illustrate the techniques and. some numerical examples are presented. These often display surprising indifference to the quality or type of the approximation used. |
