Univariate Polynomial Inference by Monte Carlo Message Length Approximation
We apply the Message from Monte Carlo (MMC) algorithm to inference of univariate polynomials. MMC is an algorithm for point estimation from a Bayesian posterior sample. It partiti...

Parallel Algorithms for Bayesian Indoor Positioning Systems
We present two parallel algorithms and their Unified Parallel C implementations for Bayesian indoor positioning systems. Our approaches are founded on Markov Chain Monte Carlo si...

Learning Sensor Network Topology through Monte Carlo Expectation Maximization
— We consider the problem of inferring sensor positions and a topological (i.e. qualitative) map of an environment given a set of cameras with non-overlapping fields of view. In...

Geometric Variance Reduction in Markov Chains: Application to Value Function and Gradient Estimation
We study a sequential variance reduction technique for Monte Carlo estimation of functionals in Markov Chains. The method is based on designing sequential control variates using s...
