Depth ordering is instrumental for understanding the 3D geometry of an image. We as humans are surprisingly good ordering even with abstract 2D line drawings. In this paper we pro...

A standard method for approximating averages in probabilistic models is to construct a Markov chain in the product space of the random variables with the desired equilibrium distr...
Many computer vision problems can be formulated in
a Bayesian framework with Markov Random Field (MRF)
or Conditional Random Field (CRF) priors. Usually, the
model assumes that ...
Abstract. Estimation of parameters of random field models from labeled training data is crucial for their good performance in many image analysis applications. In this paper, we p...
We apply Stochastic Meta-Descent (SMD), a stochastic gradient optimization method with gain vector adaptation, to the training of Conditional Random Fields (CRFs). On several larg...
