Relational Graph Labelling Using Learning Techniques and Markov Random Fields

چکیده
This paper introduces an approach for handling complex labelling problems driven by local constraints. The purpose is illustrated by two applications: detection of the road network on radar satellite images, and recognition of the cortical sulci on MRI images. Features must be initially extracted from the data to build a “feature graph” with structural relations. The goal is to endow each feature with a label representing either a specific object (recognition), or a class of objects (detection). Some contextual constraints have to be respected during this labelling. They are modelled by Markovian potentials assigned to the labellings of “feature clusters”. The solution of the labelling problem is the minimum of the energy defined by the sum of the local potentials. This paper develops a method for learning these local potentials using a “congregation” of neural networks and supervised learning.

Cluster-Based Image Segmentation Using Fuzzy Markov Random Field
Image segmentation is an important task in image processing and computer vision which attract many researchers attention. There are a couple of information sets pixels in an image: statistical and structural information which refer to the feature value of pixel data and local correlation of pixel data, respectively. Markov random field (MRF) is a tool for modeling statistical and structural inf...
متن کاملRelational Sequence Learning
Sequential behavior and sequence learning is essential to intelligence. Often the elements of sequences exhibit an internal structure that can elegantly be represented using relational atoms. Applying traditional sequential learning techniques to such relational sequences requires either to ignore the internal structure or to put up with a combinatorial explosion in the model complexity. This c...
متن کاملComputing Marginal Distributions over Continuous Markov Networks for Statistical Relational Learning
Continuous Markov random fields are a general formalism to model joint probability distributions over events with continuous outcomes. We prove that marginal computation for constrained continuous MRFs is #P-hard in general and present a polynomial-time approximation scheme under mild assumptions on the structure of the random field. Moreover, we introduce a sampling algorithm to compute margin...
متن کاملCollective Information Extraction with Relational Markov Networks
Most information extraction (IE) systems treat separate potential extractions as independent. However, in many cases, considering influences between different potential extractions could improve overall accuracy. Statistical methods based on undirected graphical models, such as conditional random fields (CRFs), have been shown to be an effective approach to learning accurate IE systems. We pres...
متن کاملLearning Bayesian Network Structure using Markov Blanket in K2 Algorithm
A Bayesian network is a graphical model that represents a set of random variables and their causal relationship via a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG). There are basically two methods used for learning Bayesian network: parameter-learning and structure-learning. One of the most effective structure-learning methods is K2 algorithm. Because the performance of the K2 algorithm depends on node...
