  • Abstract
    This article summarizes work in progress on theoretical analysis of the sum-product algorithm. Two families of graphs with quite different characteristics are studied: graphs in which all checks have degree two and graphs with a single cycle. Each family has a relatively simple structure that allows for precise mathematical results about the convergence of the sum-product algorithm.
