Title: Statistical Models for Natural Scenes

Keywords: generative models ; Markov random fields ; sparse coding ; primal sketch
Abstract:

Generative models of visual patterns can be considered mathematical representations of our knowledge of the visual world, and can be used to guide visual perception.These models can also be used for graphics applications, since they capture visually meaningful dimensions. I review some statistical models that can generate realistic visual patterns, and discuss their connections.
