On Monte Carlo methods for Bayesian multivariate regression models with heavy-tailed errors
We consider Bayesian analysis of data from multivariate linear regression models whose errors have a distribution that is a scale mixture of normals. Such models are used to analy...

Particle methods for maximum likelihood estimation in latent variable models
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 ...

A Unified Framework for Event Summarization and Rare Event Detection
A novel approach for event summarization and rare event detection is proposed. Unlike conventional methods that deal with event summarization and rare event detection independently...

Coronary tree extraction from X-ray angiograms using marked point processes
In this paper, we use marked point processes to perform an unsupervised extraction of the coronary tree from 2D X-ray angiography. These processes provide a rigorous framework bas...

Importance tempering
Simulated tempering (ST) is an established Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methodology for sampling from a multimodal density π(θ). The technique involves introducing an auxilia...
