Plug&Play (PnP) diffusion models are state-of-the-art methods in computed tomography (CT) reconstruction. Such methods usually consider applications where the sinogram contains a sufficient amount of information for the posterior distribution to be concentrated around a single mode, and consequently…
A generalized Swendsen-Wang (GSW) algorithm is proposed for the joint segmentation of a set of multiple images sharing, in part, an unknown number of common classes. The class labels are a priori modeled by a combination of the hierarchical Dirichlet process (HDP) and the Potts model. The HDP allows…
We propose a generalized Gibbs sampler algorithm for obtaining samples approximately distributed from a high-dimensional Gaussian distribution. Similarly to Hogwild methods, our approach does not target the original Gaussian distribution of interest, but an approximation to it. Contrary to Hogwild m…
The paper deals with Gibbs samplers that include high-dimensional conditional Gaussian distributions. It proposes an efficient algorithm that only requires a scalar Gaussian sampling. The algorithm relies on a random excursion along a random direction. It is proved to converge, i.e. the drawn sample…
The paper presents a method for estimating the parameter of a Potts model jointly with the unknowns of an image segmentation problem. The method addresses piecewise constant images degraded by additive noise. The proposed solution follows a Bayesian approach, that yields the posterior law for all th…
