Normal Factor Graphs: A Diagrammatic Approach to Linear Algebra

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

Inspired by some new advances on normal factor graphs (NFGs), we introduce NFGs as a simple and intuitive diagrammatic approach towards encoding some concepts from linear algebra. We illustrate with examples the workings of such an approach and settle a conjecture of Peterson on the Pfaffian.
