Markov Random Topic Fields
نویسنده
چکیده
Most approaches to topic modeling assume an independence between documents that is frequently violated. We present an topic model that makes use of one or more user-specified graphs describing relationships between documents. These graph are encoded in the form of a Markov random field over topics and serve to encourage related documents to have similar topic structures. Experiments on show upwards of a 10% improvement in modeling performance.

Markov connected component fields
A new class of Gibbsian models with potentials associated to the connected components or homogeneous parts of images is introduced. For these models the neighbourhood of a pixel is not fixed as for Markov random fields, but given by the components which are adjacent to the pixel. The relationship to Markov random fields and marked point processes is explored and spatial Markov properties are es...
متن کاملMarkov Topic Models
We develop Markov topic models (MTMs), a novel family of generative probabilistic models that can learn topics simultaneously from multiple corpora, such as papers from different conferences. We apply Gaussian (Markov) random fields to model the correlations of different corpora. MTMs capture both the internal topic structure within each corpus and the relationships between topics across the co...
متن کاملAnalytic Word Recognition without Segmentation Based on Markov Random Fields
In this paper, a method for analytic handwritten word recognition based on causal Markov random fields is described. The words models are HMMs where each state corresponds to a letter; each letter is modelled by a NSHP-HMM (Markov field). Global models are build dynamically, and used for recognition and learning with the Baum-Welch algorithm. Learning of letter and word models is made using the...

متن کاملLossless Coding of Markov Random Fields With Complex Cliques
The topic of Markov Random Fields (MRFs) has been well studied in the past, and has found practical use in various image processing, and machine learning applications. Where coding is concerned, MRF specific schemes have been largely unexplored. In this thesis, an overview is given of recent developments and challenges in the lossless coding of MRFs. Specifically, we concentrate on difficulties...
