Improved Image Segmentation Algorithm Based on High-order Conditional Random Field Model [PDF]
In image segmentation,Conditional Random Field(CRF) model and its higher-order model are widely used as energy function.The latter is based on second-order model by introducing higher-order potential function to reflect consistency of pixel labels of ...

A stochastic space-time model for intermittent precipitation occurrences [PDF]
Modeling a precipitation field is challenging due to its intermittent and highly scale-dependent nature. Motivated by the features of high-frequency precipitation data from a network of rain gauges, we propose a threshold space-time $t$ random field (tRF)

Variational Infinite Hidden Conditional Random Fields [PDF]
Hidden conditional random fields (HCRFs) are discriminative latent variable models which have been shown to successfully learn the hidden structure of a given classification problem. An Infinite hidden conditional random field is a hidden conditional random field with a countably infinite number of hidden states, which rids us not only of the necessity

Analogues of Non-Gibbsianness in Joint Measures of Disordered Mean Field Models [PDF]
It is known that the joint measures on the product of spin-space and disorder space are very often non-Gibbsian measures, for lattice systems with quenched disorder, at low temperature.

EFFICIENT SEMANTIC SEGMENTATION OF MAN-MADE SCENES USING FULLY-CONNECTED CONDITIONAL RANDOM FIELD [PDF]
In this paper we explore semantic segmentation of man-made scenes using fully connected conditional random field (CRF). Images of man-made scenes display strong contextual dependencies in the spatial structures. Fully connected CRFs can model long-range
