Background modeling is important for video surveillance. In the paper, we present a novel background modeling algorithm based on probabilistic graphic model and Gibbs Sampling. The background is modeled at different resolution level by image pyramids. We develop a time dependent pyramidal Markov Random Field (MRF) to represent the state of foreground/background at each pixel in the pyramid. Bot...

In this paper, we present an optimised learning algorithm for high-order Markov random fields (MRF) color image priors that capture the statistics of natural scenes and can be used for a variety of computer vision tasks. The proposed optimal learning algorithm is achieved by simplifying the estimation of partition function in the learning model. The parameters in MRF color image priors are lear...

Markov Random Fields (MRFs) [5] are a class of probabalistic models that have been applied for many years to the analysis of visual patterns or textures. In this paper, our objective is to establish MRFs as an interesting approach to modelling genetic algorithms. Our approach bears strong similarities to recent work on the Bayesian Optimisation Algorithm [9], but there are also some signi cant ...

The hydrodynamics of the waterjet-propelled ship is a challenging issue due to sophistication waterjet system geometry as well waterjet–hull interaction. In current study, three different propulsion models, namely, multiple reference frame (MRF) model, sliding mesh model and body-force are utilized simulate self-propulsion model. A based on User-Defined Function (UDF) ANSYS Fluent platform prop...

To investigate the pathogeneic significance of immune complexes in cutaneous vasculitis, 107 patients with various forms of cutaneous vasculitis, including 59 patients with necrotizing (leukocytoclastic) vasculitis (group 1), and 48 patients with lymphocytic vasculitis, or a predominately lymphocytic perivascular infiltrate (group 2), were studied. Immunoglobulins or complement components in cu...

We present a method for creating a spatiotemporal dictionary for magnetic resonance fingerprinting (MRF). Our technique is based on the clustering of multi-parametric spatial kernels from training data and the posterior simulation of a temporal fingerprint for each voxel in every cluster. We show that the parametric maps estimated with a clustered dictionary agree with maps estimated with a ful...

Background MR Fingerprinting (MRF) (Ma et al, Nature, 2013) can potentially achieve shorter scan times than conventional mapping by exploiting flexible sequence parameters. Cardiac MRF has been reported for single-slice mapping of T1 and T2 in sixteen heartbeats (Hamilton et al, Proc ISMRM, 2015). Here the scan duration is reduced to four heartbeats using an iterative multi-scale denoising patt...
