摘要
We describe a family of approximations, denoted by ''cluster approximations,'' for the computation of the mean of a Markov random field (MRF). This is a key computation in image processing when applied to the a posteriori MRF. The approximation is to, account exactly for only spatially local interactions. Application of the approximation requires the solution of a nonlinear multivariable fixed-point equation for which we prove several existence, uniqueness, and convergence-of-algorithm results. Four numerical examples are presented, including comparison with Monte Carlo calculations.
