This software implements two algorithms for minimizing energy functions of the form 

   E(x)   =   \sum_i D_i(x_i)   +   \sum_ij V_ij(x_i,x_j)
   where x_i are discrete variables.

The two algorithms are max-product belief propagation (BP, Pearl'88) and
sequential tree-reweighted max-product message passing (TRW-S, Kolmogorov'05).

For example usage look at one of the type*.h files
(typeBinary.h, typeBinaryFast.h, typePotts.h, typeGeneral.h,
typeTruncatedLinear.h, typeTruncatedQuadratic.h, typeTruncatedLinear2D.h, typeTruncatedQuadratic2D.h).
If your energy function does not belong to the classes defined
in these files but terms V_ij allow fast distance transforms, then
it should be possible to extend the algorithms to your functions
using files type*.h as examples.
