Originally devoted to specific applications such as biology, medicine and demography, duration models are now widely used in economy, finance or reliability. Recent works in var...

In this paper, we present a variational Bayesian (VB) approach to computing the interval estimates for nonhomogeneous Poisson process (NHPP) software reliability models. This appr...

Standard methods for maximum likelihood parameter estimation in latent variable models rely on the Expectation-Maximization algorithm and its Monte Carlo variants. Our approach is ...
We propose a new approach to estimate gait kinematics from image sequences taken by a monocular uncalibrated camera. This approach involves two generative models for gait represen...
We study an approximation for the zero-variance change of measure to estimate the probability of a rare event in a continuous-time Markov chain. The rare event occurs when the cha...
