Rapid Mixing of Several Markov Chains for a Hard-Core Model
The mixing properties of several Markov chains to sample from configurations of a hard-core model have been examined. The model is familiar in the statistical physics of the liqui...

Modeling Complex Motion by Tracking and Editing Hidden Markov Graphs
In this paper, we propose a generative model for representing complex motion, such as wavy river, dancing fire and dangling cloth. Our generative method consists of four component...
