چکیده

We describe a method for learning statistical models of images using a second-order hidden Markov mesh model. First, an image can be segmented in a way that best matches its statistical model by an approach related to the dynamic programming used for segmenting Markov chains. Second, given an image segmentation, a statistical model (3D state transition matrix and observation distributions within states) can be estimated. These two steps are repeated until convergence to provide both a segmentation and a statistical model of the image. We propose a statistical distance measure between images based on the similarity of their statistical models, for classification and retrieval tasks.

IMAGE SEGMENTATION USING GAUSSIAN MIXTURE MODEL

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 have learned Gaussian mixture model to the pixels of an image. The parameters of the model have estimated by EM-algorithm. In addition pixel labeling corresponded to each pixel of true image is made by Bayes rule. In fact, ...

Introducing Busy Customer Portfolio Using Hidden Markov Model

Due to the effective role of Markov models in customer relationship management (CRM), there is a lack of comprehensive literature review which contains all related literatures. In this paper the focus is on academic databases to find all the articles that had been published in 2011 and earlier. One hundred articles were identified and reviewed to find direct relevance for applying Markov models...
