Gaussian Markov Random Field (GMRF) models are most widely used in spatial statistics - a very active area of research in which few up-to-date reference works a

An important treatment of the geometric properties of sets generated by random fields, including a comprehensive treatment of the mathematical basics of random

This monograph is devoted to a completely new approach to geometric problems arising in the study of random fields. The groundbreaking material in Part III, for

State-of-the-art research on MRFs, successful MRF applications, and advanced topics for future study. This volume demonstrates the power of the Markov random fi

In this book we study Markov random functions of several variables. What is traditionally meant by the Markov property for a random process (a random function o
