Markov Random Fields (MRFs) are a class of probabilistic models that represent the joint distribution of a set of random variables, where the dependencies between these variables are defined through an undirected graph. In MRFs, the value of a variable is conditionally independent of other variables given its neighbors in the graph. This property links MRFs to joint and conditional probabilities, as it allows for efficient computation of marginal probabilities and understanding how one variable relates to another while respecting independence assumptions.
congrats on reading the definition of Markov Random Fields. now let's actually learn it.
