A generalized Swendsen-Wang algorithm for Bayesian nonparametric joint segmentation of multiple images

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…
