Abstract | Maximum a posteriori (MAP) inference in Markov random field (MRF) lays the foundation for many computer vision tasks, which can be formulated by a binary quadratic programming (BQP) problem. Compared with the discrete methods, the continuous relaxation scheme becomes popular due to its generality and efficiency. However, existing continuous relaxation based MAP algorithms are still limited by two problems, i.e., the highly nonconvex original objective function and the gap between the original BQP problem and the relaxed continuous optimization problem. Targeting the two problems, this paper presents a doubly graduated continuous relaxation algorithm for MAP inference in MRF, which are, respectively, the Gaussian smoothing based graduated nonconvexity process and conditional gradient ascent based graduated projection. Experiments on both synthetic data and real-world images illustrate the algorithm's state-of-the-art performance in objective function optimization and typical computer vision tasks. |
