A convex relaxation for approximate maximum-likelihood 2D source localization from range measurements
This paper addresses the problem of locating a single source from noisy range measurements in wireless sensor networks. An approximate solution to the maximum likelihood location ...

Probabilistic Image Sensor Fusion
We present a probabilistic method for fusion of images produced by multiple sensors. The approach is based on an image formation model in which the sensor images are noisy, locall...

Divisive Normalization, Line Attractor Networks and Ideal Observers
Gain control by divisive inhibition, a.k.a. divisive normalization, has been proposed to be a general mechanism throughout the visual cortex. We explore in this study the statisti...

Bayesian Hierarchical Mixtures of Experts
The Hierarchical Mixture of Experts (HME) is a well-known tree-structured model for regression and classification, based on soft probabilistic splits of the input space. In its o...

On Modeling Profiles Instead of Values
We consider the problem of estimating the distribution underlying an observed sample of data. Instead of maximum likelihood, which maximizes the probability of the observed values...

Boosting and Maximum Likelihood for Exponential Models
We derive an equivalence between AdaBoost and the dual of a convex optimization problem, showing that the only difference between minimizing the exponential loss used by AdaBoost ...

Learning first-order Markov models for control
First-order Markov models have been successfully applied to many problems, for example in modeling sequential data using Markov chains, and modeling control problems using the Mar...

A Novel Parameter Estimation Algorithm for the Multivariate t-Distribution and Its Application to Computer
Abstract. We present a novel algorithm for approximating the parameters of a multivariate t-distribution. At the expense of a slightly decreased accuracy in the estimates, the prop...

MLSE Receiver for the Dispersive Rayleigh Fading Channel
: A maximum likelihood sequence estimator for the dispersive Rayleigh fading channel is developed. Following [1, 2], the MLSE uses a Kalman based channel estimator to acquire the c...
