Kindermann, Ross; Snell, J. Laurie Markov random fields and their applications. (English) Zbl 1229.60003 Contemporary Mathematics 1. Providence, RI: American Mathematical Society (AMS) (ISBN 0-8218-5001-6). ix, 142 p. (1980). From the preface: Markov random fields is a new branch of probability theory that promises to be important both in the theory and application of probability. The existing literature on the subject is quite technical and often only understandable to the expert. This paper is an attempt to present the basic ideas of the subject and its application to a wider audience.
