Monte Carlo Hidden Markov Models: Learning Non-Parametric Models of Partially Observable Stochastic Processes
We present a learning algorithm for non-parametric hidden Markov models with continuous state and observation spaces. All necessary probability densities are approximated using sa...

Estimation of mixtures of probabilistic pca with stochastic em for the 3d biplanar reconstruction of scoliotic rib cage
In this paper, we present a robust method for estimating the model parameters in a mixture of probabilistic principal component analyzers. This method is based on the Stochastic v...
