Abstract:
The use of Markov random field (MRF) models has proven to be a fruitful approach in a wide range of image processing applications. It allows local texture information to be incorporated in a systematic and unified way and allows statistical inference theory to be applied giving rise to novel output summaries and enhanced image interpretation. A great advantage of such low-level approaches is that they lead to flexible models, which can be applied to a wide range of imaging problems without the need for significant modification. This paper proposes and explores the use of conditional MRF models for situations where multiple images are to be processed simultaneously, or where only a single image is to be reconstructed and a sequential approach is taken. Although the coupling of image intensity values is a special case of our approach, the main extension over previous proposals is to allow the direct coupling of other properties, such as smoothness or texture. This is achieved using a local modulating function which adjusts the influence of global smoothing without the need for a fully inhomogeneous prior model. Several modulating functions are considered and a detailed simulation study, motivated by remote sensing applications in archaeological geophysics, of conditional reconstruction is presented. The results demonstrate that a substantial improvement in the quality of the image reconstruction, in terms of errors and residuals, can be achieved using this approach, especially at locations with rapid changes in the underlying intensity.

Abstract:
Strong orthogonal arrays were recently introduced as a class of space-filling designs for computer experiments. The most attractive are those of strength three for their economical run sizes. Although the existence of strong orthogonal arrays of strength three has been completely characterized, the construction of these arrays has not been explored. In this paper, we provide a systematic and comprehensive study on the construction of these arrays, with the aim at better space-filling properties. Besides various characterizing results, three families of strength-three strong orthogonal arrays are presented. One of these families deserves special mention, as the arrays in this family enjoy almost all of the space-filling properties of strength-four strong orthogonal arrays, and do so with much more economical run sizes than the latter. The theory of maximal designs and their doubling constructions plays a crucial role in many of theoretical developments.
