Abstract
In this work-in-progress, we consider a lifted inference algorithm and analyze its scaling properties. We compare two versions of this algorithm–the original implementation and a newer implementation built on a database. Our preliminary results show that constructing the factor graph from the relational model rather than the construction of the compressed model is the key bottleneck for the application of lifted inference in large domains.
