Stacked Graphical Models

Summary

This paper is an extension of Stacked Sequential Learning and shows how stacking can be used in non-sequential tasks, such as text region detection.

The key points of the paper are:

  • very fast inference time, 40 to 80 times faster than Gibbs sampling.
  • relational information is captured by augmenting data with the predictions of related instances.
  • Authors look at an image processing problem where the relation of instances is not sequential.
