mbi.marginal_oracles.variable_elimination(potentials: CliqueVector, clique: tuple[str, ...], total: float = 1, mesh: Mesh | None = None, evidence: dict[str, int] | None = None) → Factor

Compute an out-of-model/unsupported marginal from the potentials.

Parameters:

• potentials – The (log-space) potentials of a Graphical Model.

• clique – The subset of attributes whose marginal you want.

• total – The normalization factor.

• mesh – The mesh over which the computation should be sharded.

• evidence – A dictionary mapping attribute names to observed values.

Returns:

The marginal defined over the domain of the input clique, where each entry is non-negative and sums to the input total.
