Probabilistic graphical models are omniscient in the study of complex systems involving latent variables. The sum-product algorithm exploits the graph structure for reducing the algorithmic complexity of an inference. In this thesis, we are interested in exact inference in Bayesian networks (BNs) and hidden Markov models (HMMs) and applications in survival analysis, genetics and segmentation. Two main themes are explored: - Extensions of the sum-product algorithm on the polynomial ring: inspired by versions of the algorithm over polynomial potentials to compute probability and moment generating functions, we develop a method for computing the exact derivatives of the likelihood up to a chosen order in BNs. Furthermore, we propose a method b...
