Whether common ancestors of eukaryotes and prokaryotes had introns is one of the oldest unanswered questions in molecular evolution. Recently completed genome sequences have been u...
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...
We propose a simulation-based method for calculating maximum likelihood estimators in latent variable models. The proposed method integrates a recently developed sampling strategy...
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 ...
In a reverberant scenario, phase transformed weighted algorithms are more robust than Maximum Likelihood (ML) because of the insufficiency of the data model to incorporate reverb...
