N2 - Bayesian models provide a framework for probabilistic modelling of complex datasets. However, many of such models are computationally demanding especially in the presence of large datasets. On the other hand, in sensor network applications, statistical (Bayesian) parameter estimation usually needs distributed algorithms, in which both data and computation are distributed across the nodes of the net- work. In this paper we propose a general framework for distributed Bayesian learning using Bregman Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (B-ADMM). We demonstrate the utility of our framework, with Mean Field Variational Bayes (MFVB) as the primitive for distributed a fine structure from motion (SfM).
