Abstract:
This document presents two deterministic algorithms for the maximum a posteriori estimation of a one dimensional, binary Markov random field from noisy observations. Extensions to other related problems, such as one dimensional signal matching, and estimation of continuous valued Markov random fields are also discussed. Finally, the author presents an experimental comparison of the performance of optimal algorithms with a stochastic approximation scheme simulated annealing.
