چکیده

For applications in texture synthesis, we derive two approximate Bayes criteria for selecting a model from a collection of Markov random fields. The first criterion is based on a penalized maximum likelihood. The second criterion, a Markov chain Monte Carlo approximation to the first, has distinct computational advantages. Some simulation results are also presented.

Empirical Bayes Estimation in Nonstationary Markov chains

Estimation procedures for nonstationary Markov chains appear to be relatively sparse. This work introduces empirical  Bayes estimators  for the transition probability  matrix of a finite nonstationary  Markov chain. The data are assumed to be of  a panel study type in which each data set consists of a sequence of observations on N>=2 independent and identically dis...

Latent Dirichlet Markov Random Fields for Semi-supervised Image Segmentation and Object Recognition

Topic models such as Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) and probabilistic Latent Semantic Analysis have shown great success in segmenting and recognizing the component objects of images. However, such models frequently ignore the spatial relationships among image regions and hence fail to capture important local correlations. In this paper, we introduce the Latent Dirichlet Markov Random Field (...

­­Image Segmentation using Gaussian Mixture Model

Abstract: Stochastic models such as mixture models, graphical models, Markov random fields and hidden Markov models have key role in probabilistic data analysis. In this paper, we used Gaussian mixture model to the pixels of an image. The parameters of the model were estimated by EM-algorithm.   In addition pixel labeling corresponded to each pixel of true image was made by Bayes rule. In fact,...

Approximate Bayes Factors for Image Segmentation: The Pseudolikelihood Information Criterion (PLIC)

We propose a method for choosing the number of colors or true gray levels in an image; this allows fully automatic segmentation of images. Our underlying probability model is a hidden Markov random field. Each number of colors considered is viewed as corresponding to a statistical model for the image, and the resulting models are compared via approximate Bayes factors. The Bayes factors are app...
