Many problems in computer vision can be modeled using
conditional Markov random fields (CRF). Since finding
the maximum a posteriori (MAP) solution in such models
is NP-hard, mu...

Belief propagation (BP) is an effective algorithm for solving energy minimization problems in computer vision. However, it requires enormous memory, bandwidth, and computation beca...

In this paper, we propose a new stereo matching method using the population-based Markov Chain Monte Carlo (Pop-MCMC), which belongs to the sampling-based methods. Since the previo...

Many vision problems have been formulated as en- ergy minimization problems and there have been signif- icant advances in energy minimization algorithms. The most widely-used energ...

Recent work (Yedidia, Freeman, Weiss [22]) has shown that stable points of belief propagation (BP) algorithms [12] for graphs with loops correspond to extrema of the Bethe free ene...
