| Abstract | Markov random fields (MRFs) have been used in image restoration, texture classification and segmentation as a prior model of pattern distributions. An important issue in MRF modeling is MRF parameter estimation. In this paper, an MRF parameter estimation method is proposed for effective and efficient estimation of MRF parameters. The method is based on Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) in which a Markov chain is constructed to sample the MRF parameters using Monte Carlo method. Experiments show that the proposed method is more accurate than the least squares fit method, and can be used for effective estimation of multi-graylevel texture parameters. This method can be extended for the use in multiresolution analysis of texture modeling and segmentation of textured images.
