naturally occurred soil deposits inherit heterogeneity and anisotropy in their strength properties. the main purpose of this paper is to model the soil stratum with anisotropy consideration and spatially varying undrained shear strength by using random field theory coupled with finite difference numerical analysis to evaluate their effect on the bearing capacity of the shallow foundations. in t...

We combine random forest (RF) and conditional random field (CRF) into a new computational framework, called random forest random field (RF). Inference of (RF) uses the Swendsen-Wang cut algorithm, characterized by MetropolisHastings jumps. A jump from one state to another depends on the ratio of the proposal distributions, and on the ratio of the posterior distributions of the two states. Prior...

Image segmentation is an important task in image processing and computer vision which attract many researchers attention. There are a couple of information sets pixels in an image: statistical and structural information which refer to the feature value of pixel data and local correlation of pixel data, respectively. Markov random field (MRF) is a tool for modeling statistical and structural inf...

texture image analysis is one of the most important working realms of imageprocessing in medical sciences and industry. up to present, different approacheshave been proposed for segmentation of texture images. in this paper, we offeredunsupervised texture image segmentation based on markov random field (mrf)model. first, we used gabor filter with different parameters’ (frequency,orientation) va...
