We describe a probabilistic approach to content selection for meeting summarization. We use skipchain Conditional Random Fields (CRF) to model non-local pragmatic dependencies bet...
We propose a novel way to induce a random field from an energy function on discrete labels. It amounts to locally injecting noise to the energy potentials, followed by finding t...
An important problem in image labeling concerns learning with images labeled at varying levels of specificity. We propose an approach that can incorporate images with labels drawn...
Graphical models are fundamental tools for modeling images and other applications. In this paper, we propose the Logistic Random Field (LRF) model for representing a discrete-valu...

Markov random field (MRF, CRF) models are popular in
computer vision. However, in order to be computationally
tractable they are limited to incorporate only local interactions
