Probabilistic Cascade Random Fields for Man-Made Structure Detection
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper develops the probabilistic version of cascade algorithm, specifically, Probabilistic AdaBoost Cascade (PABC). The proposed PABC algorithm is further employed to learn the association potential in the Discriminative Random Fields (DRF) model, resulting the Probabilistic Cascade Random Fields (PCRF) model. PCRF model enjoys the advantage of incorporating far more informative features than the conventional DRF model. Moreover, compared to the original DRF model, PCRF is less sensitive to the class imbalance problem. The proposed PABC and PCRF were applied to the task of man-made structure detection. We compared the performance of PABC with different settings, the performance of the original DRF model and that of PCRF. Detailed numerical analysis demonstrated that PABC improves the performance with more AdaBoost nodes, and the interaction potential in PCRF further improves the performance significantly.

Discriminative Random Fields: A Discriminative Framework for Contextual Interaction in Classification
In this work we present Discriminative Random Fields (DRFs), a discriminative framework for the classification of image regions by incorporating neighborhood interactions in the labels as well as the observed data. The discriminative random fields offer several advantages over the conventional Markov Random Field (MRF) framework. First, the DRFs allow to relax the strong assumption of condition...
متن کاملDetection of Man-made Structures in Natural Images
Object detection in images is a very active research topic in many disciplines. Probabilistic methods have been applied to the problem with varying degrees of success. A logistic classifier, Markov random field (MRF), and discriminative Random Field (DRF) were used for the detection of man-made structures in natural images. It was found that the MRF and DRF models were often improvements over t...

Because of random nature of many dependent variables in coastal engineering, treatment of effective parameters is generally associated with uncertainty. Numerical models are often used for dynamic analysis of complex structures, including mechanical systems. Furthermore, deterministic models are not sufficient for exact anticipation of structure’s dynamic response, but probabilistic models...
