Unifying Divergence Minimization and Statistical Inference Via Convex Duality
Abstract. In this paper we unify divergence minimization and statistical inference by means of convex duality. In the process of doing so, we prove that the dual of approximate max...

MRI Tissue Classification with Neighborhood Statistics: A Nonparametric, Entropy-Minimizing Approach
We introduce a novel approach for magnetic resonance image (MRI) brain tissue classification by learning image neighborhood statistics from noisy input data using nonparametric den...

Joint MRI Bias Removal Using Entropy Minimization Across Images
The correction of bias in magnetic resonance images is an important problem in medical image processing. Most previous approaches have used a maximum likelihood method to increase...

A Minimum Relative Entropy Principle for Learning and Acting
This paper proposes a method to construct an adaptive agent that is universal with respect to a given class of experts, where each expert is designed specifically for a particular...

Online kernel PCA with entropic matrix updates
A number of updates for density matrices have been developed recently that are motivated by relative entropy minimization problems. The updates involve a softmin calculation based...
