Cross Entropy: A New Solver for Markov Random Field Modeling and Applications to Medical Image Segmentation
This paper introduces a novel solver, namely cross entropy (CE), into the MRF theory for medical image segmentation. The solver, which is based on the theory of rare event simulati...

Markov Random Field Modelling of fMRI Data Using a Mean Field EM-algorithm
This paper considers the use of the EM-algorithm, combined with mean field theory, for parameter estimation in Markov random field models from unlabelled data. Special attention ...

A segmentation method using compound Markov random fields based on a general boundary model
Markov random field (MRF) theory has widely been applied to segmentation in noisy images. This paper proposes a new MRF method. First, it couples the original labeling MRF with a ...
