  2. 12. Estimation of Nonlinear Dynamic Systems : Theory and Applications

    Author : Thomas B. Schön; Fredrik Gustafsson; Simon Godsill; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Nonlinear estimation; system identification; Kalman filter; particle filter; marginalized particle filter; expectation maximization; automotive applications; Automatic control; Reglerteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with estimation of states and parameters in nonlinear and non-Gaussian dynamic systems. Sequential Monte Carlo methods are mainly used to this end. These methods rely on models of the underlying system, motivating some developments of the model concept. READ MORE

  3. 13. Variational Inference of Dynamic Factor Models

    Author : Erik Spånberg; Pär Stockhammar; Gebrenegus Ghilagaber; Sune Karlsson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; dynamic factor models; variational inference; missing data; nowcasting; expectation maximization; statistik; Statistics;

    Abstract : When we make difficult and crucial decisions, forecasts are powerful and important tools. For that purpose, statistical models can be our most effective aid. Ideally, these models can incorporate large sets of multifaceted data. READ MORE

  4. 14. Probabilistic Models for Species Tree Inference and Orthology Analysis

    Author : Ikram Ullah; Jens Lagergren; Arndt von Haeseler; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; phylogenetics; phylogenomics; gene tree; species tree; expectation maximization; mixture model; dynamic programming; markov chain monte carlo; PrIME; JPrIME; Datalogi; Computer Science;

    Abstract : A phylogenetic tree is used to model gene evolution and species evolution using molecular sequence data. For artifactual and biological reasons, a gene tree may differ from a species tree, a phenomenon known as gene tree-species tree incongruence. Assuming the presence of one or more evolutionary events, e.g. READ MORE

  5. 15. Learning Representations for Segmentation and Registration

    Author : Felix Järemo Lawin; Per-Erik Forssén; Michael Felsberg; Radu Patrice Horaud; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Computer Vision; point set registration; video object segmentation; time-of-flight; point set segmentation; deep learning; expectation maximization;

    Abstract : In computer vision, the aim is to model and extract high-level information from visual sensor measurements such as images, videos and 3D points. Since visual data is often high-dimensional, noisy and irregular, achieving robust data modeling is challenging. READ MORE
