  1. 16. Machine learning with state-space models, Gaussian processes and Monte Carlo methods

    Author : Andreas Svensson; Thomas B. Schön; Fredrik Lindsten; Carl Edward Rasmussen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Machine learning; State-space models; Gaussian processes; Elektroteknik med inriktning mot reglerteknik; Electrical Engineering with specialization in Automatic Control;

    Abstract : Numbers are present everywhere, and when they are collected and recorded we refer to them as data. Machine learning is the science of learning mathematical models from data. Such models, once learned from data, can be used to draw conclusions, understand behavior, predict future evolution, and make decisions. READ MORE

  2. 17. Spatio-Temporal Estimation for Mixture Models and Gaussian Markov Random Fields - Applications to Video Analysis and Environmental Modelling

    Author : Johan Lindström; Matematisk statistik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; vegetation; time series analysis; video segmentation; spatio-temporal modelling; precipitation; Markov chain Monte Carlo; Gaussian Markov random fields; expectation maximisation; change point detection; Bayesian recursive estimation; African Sahel; adaptive Gaussian mixtures;

    Abstract : In this thesis computationally intensive methods are used to estimate models and to make inference for large, spatio-temporal data sets. The thesis is divided into two parts: the first two papers are concerned with video analysis, while the last three papers model and investigate environmental data from the Sahel area in northern Africa.

  3. 18. Non-Gaussian Statistical Modelsand Their Applications

    Author : Zhanyu Ma; Arne Leijon; Cédric Févotte; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Statistical modeling plays an important role in various research areas. It provides away to connect the data with the statistics. Based on the statistical properties of theobserved data, an appropriate model can be chosen that leads to a promising practicalperformance. READ MORE

  4. 19. Gaussian fluctuations in some determinantal processes

    Author : Jonas Hägg; Kurt Johansson; Alexander Soshnikov; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Random matrices; limit theorems; MATHEMATICS; MATEMATIK;

    Abstract : This thesis consists of two parts, Papers A and B, in which some stochastic processes, originating from random matrix theory (RMT), are studied. In the first paper we study the fluctuations of the kth largest eigenvalue, xk, of the Gaussian unitary ensemble (GUE). READ MORE

  5. 20. Tailoring Gaussian processes for tomographic reconstruction

    Author : Carl Jidling; Thomas B. Schön; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electrical Engineering with specialization in Signal Processing; Elektroteknik med inriktning mot signalbehandling;

    Abstract : A probabilistic model reasons about physical quantities as random variables that can be estimated from measured data. The Gaussian process is a respected member of this family, being a flexible non-parametric method that has proven strong capabilities in modelling a wide range of nonlinear functions. READ MORE
