Bayesian smoothing and step functions in the nonparametric estimation of curves and surfaces by Heikkinen, Juha

“…Estimates produced using the dynamic version are not necessarily step functions; for example the pointwise posterior means typically form a smooth continuous curve or surface. Smoothing between nearby function values is applied by means of a locally dependent Markov random field prior in the spirit of Bayesian image analysis. …”
