Active Mean Fields: Solving the Mean Field Approximation in the Level Set Framework
Abstract. We describe a new approach for estimating the posterior probability of tissue labels. Conventional likelihood models are combined with a curve length prior on boundaries,...

Second Order Approximations for Probability Models
In this paper, we derive a second order mean field theory for directed graphical probability models. By using an information theoretic argument it is shown how this can be done in...

Information Theory - The Bridge Connecting Bounded Rational Game Theory and Statistical Physics
A long-running difficulty with conventional game theory has been how to modify it to accommodate the bounded rationality of all real-world players. A recurring issue in statistica...
