Bayesian inference in estimation of distribution algorithms
— Metaheuristics such as Estimation of Distribution Algorithms and the Cross-Entropy method use probabilistic modelling and inference to generate candidate solutions in optimizat...

Fast total variation image restoration with parameter estimation using bayesian inference
In this paper we propose two fast Total Variation (TV) based algorithms for image restoration by utilizing variational posterior distribution approximation. The unknown image and ...

U-Likelihood and U-Updating Algorithms: Statistical Inference in Latent Variable Models
Abstract. In this paper we consider latent variable models and introduce a new U-likelihood concept for estimating the distribution over hidden variables. One can derive an estimat...

A Bayesian approach to inferring vascular tree structure from 2D imagery
We describe a method for inferring tree-like vascular structures from 2D imagery. A Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm is employed to produce approximate samples from the p...

Bayesian Inference for Spiking Neuron Models with a Sparsity Prior
Generalized linear models are the most commonly used tools to describe the stimulus selectivity of sensory neurons. Here we present a Bayesian treatment of such models. Using the ...
