Some Limit Theorems on Simulated Annealing
Many combinatorial optimization problems can be described as finding the global minimum of a certain function U(•) over a finite state space S, say, {l, 2,…, N}. A commonly used approach is the gradient method...

Model Critique and Conclusions
The experiment has shown that the global shape model has enough descriptive power for the analysis of the real pictures we studied. For picture ensembles of the type studied the model will not need any essential ...

Dealing with Highly Variable Patterns
Is it possible to mechanize human intuitive understanding of biological pictures that typically exhibit a lot of variability but also possess characteristic structure?

Chapter
Pattern Analysis
The task of restoring a noisy image is facilitated by having models and algorithms already available for synthesis. When we developed the code it was both possible and convenient to use the same code for both ...

Chapter
Pattern Analysis — Experiments
The synthesis experiments have given us some insight in how the global shape models function and how they are influenced by their parameters. Synthesis experiments should not, of course, be considered as suffi...

Chapter
Pattern Synthesis: Experiments
We shall now apply the random shape model to hand pictures and start with simulation experiments. This will help us to get an intuitive understanding of the model and the prior measure it represents, what is t...

Chapter
Pattern Synthesis
The prior induced by the Gibbs density (1.6) cannot be simulated directly for a general acceptor function and for n-values of practical interest. We shall therefore apply stochastic relaxation that has earlier be...

Acoustic-Phonetic Decoding of Speech
Several methods for acoustic-phonetic decoding are reviewed. Emphasis is placed on the need for mathematical methods for speech recognition. Several examples of statistical methods are described. The author pr...
