This paper develops importance resampling into a variance reduction technique for Monte Carlo integration. Importance resampling is a sample generation technique that can be used ...
We describe a technique for comparing distributions without the need for density estimation as an intermediate step. Our approach relies on mapping the distributions into a Reprod...

Multimodal distribution fitting is an important task in pattern recognition. For instance, the predetection which is the preliminary stage that limits image areas to be processed i...
Particle filtering (PF) for dynamic Bayesian networks (DBNs) with discrete-state spaces includes a resampling step which concentrates samples according to their relative weight in ...
ABSTRACT. Estimating a non-uniformly sampled function from a set of learning points is a classical regression problem. Kernel methods have been widely used in this context, but eve...
