In the domain of physics and probability, a Markov random field (MRF), Markov network or undirected graphical model is a set of random variables having a Markov property described by an undirected graph. In other words, a random field is said to be a Markov random field if it satisfies Markov properties. The concept originates from the Sherrington–Kirkpatrick model.[1]
A Markov network or MRF is similar to a Bayesian network in its representation of dependencies; the differences being that Bayesian networks are directed and acyclic, whereas Markov networks are undirected and may be cyclic. Thus, a Markov network can represent certain dependencies that a Bayesian network cannot (such as cyclic dependencies [further explanation needed]); on the other hand, it can't represent certain dependencies that a Bayesian network can (such as induced dependencies [further explanation needed]). The underlying graph of a Markov random field may be finite or infinite.
When the joint probability density of the random variables is strictly positive, it is also referred to as a Gibbs random field, because, according to the Hammersley–Clifford theorem, it can then be represented by a Gibbs measure for an appropriate (locally defined) energy function. The prototypical Markov random field is the Ising model; indeed, the Markov random field was introduced as the general setting for the Ising model.[2] In the domain of artificial intelligence, a Markov random field is used to model various low- to mid-level tasks in image processing and computer vision.[3]
Definition
Given an undirected graph , a set of random variables indexed by form a Markov random field with respect to if they satisfy the local Markov properties:
- Pairwise Markov property: Any two non-adjacent variables are conditionally independent given all other variables:
- Local Markov property: A variable is conditionally independent of all other variables given its neighbors:
- where is the set of neighbors of , and is the closed neighbourhood of .
- Global Markov property: Any two subsets of variables are conditionally independent given a separating subset:
- where every path from a node in to a node in passes through .
The Global Markov property is stronger than the Local Markov property, which in turn is stronger than the Pairwise one.[4] However, the above three Markov properties are equivalent for positive distributions[5] (those that assign only nonzero probabilities to the associated variables).
The relation between the three Markov properties is particularly clear in the following formulation:
- Pairwise: For any not equal or adjacent, .
- Local: For any and not containing or adjacent to , .
- Global: For any not intersecting or adjacent, .
Clique factorization
As the Markov property of an arbitrary probability distribution can be difficult to establish, a commonly used class of Markov random fields are those that can be factorized according to the cliques of the graph.
Given a set of random variables , let be the probability of a particular field configuration in —that is, is the probability of finding that the random variables take on the particular value . Because is a set, the probability of should be understood to be taken with respect to a joint distribution of the .
If this joint density can be factorized over the cliques of as
then forms a Markov random field with respect to . Here, is the set of cliques of . The definition is equivalent if only maximal cliques are used. The functions are sometimes referred to as factor potentials or clique potentials. Note, however, conflicting terminology is in use: the word potential is often applied to the logarithm of . This is because, in statistical mechanics, has a direct interpretation as the potential energy of a configuration .
Some MRF's do not factorize: a simple example can be constructed on a cycle of 4 nodes with some infinite energies, i.e. configurations of zero probabilities,[6] even if one, more appropriately, allows the infinite energies to act on the complete graph on .[7]
MRF's factorize if at least one of the following conditions is fulfilled:
