Distributed inference over regression and classification models

Ali H. Sayed

We study the distributed inference task over regression and classification models where the likelihood function is strongly log-concave. We show that diffusion strategies allow the KL divergence between two likelihood functions to converge to zero at the r ...

A Unifying Parametric Framework for 2D Steerable Wavelet Transforms

Michaël Unser

We introduce a complete parameterization of the family of two-dimensional steerable wavelets that are polar-separable in the Fourier domain under the constraint of self-reversibility. These wavelets are constructed by multiorder generalized Riesz transform ...

A Comparative Study of Time Delay Estimation Techniques for Road Vehicle Tracking

Hervé Lissek, Xavier Falourd, Patrick Marmaroli

This paper addresses road traffic monitoring using passive acoustic sensors. Recently, the feasibility of the joint speed and wheelbase length estimation of a road vehicle using particle filtering has been demonstrated. In essence, the direction of arrival ...

Maximum-Likelihood Identification of Sampled Gaussian Processes

Michaël Unser, Hagay Kirshner, Simona Maggio

This work considers sampled data of continuous-domain Gaussian processes. We derive a maximum-likelihood estimator for identifying autoregressive moving average parameters while incorporating the sampling process into the problem formulation. The proposed ...

Optimally Localized Wavelets and Smoothing Kernels

Kunal Narayan Chaudhury

It is well-known that the Gaussian functions and, more generally, their modulations-translations (the Gabor functions) have the unique property of being optimally localized in space and frequency in the sense of Heisenberg's uncertainty principle. In this ...

Tg-aprotinin fusion proteins and matrices thereof

Peter Frey, Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Kristen Lorentz

Fusion proteins containing a first domain and a second domain, where the first domain contains a crosslinkable substrate domain and the second domain contains a fibrinolysis inhibitor, are provided. In a preferred embodiment, the fibrinolysis inhibitor is ...

Wavelet Steerability and the Higher-Order Riesz Transform

Michaël Unser, Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville

Our main goal in this paper is to set the foundations of a general continuous-domain framework for designing steerable, reversible signal transformations (a.k.a. frames) in multiple dimensions (d ≥ 2). To that end, we introduce a self-reversible, Nth-order ...

Modelling human perception of static facial expressions

Michel Bierlaire, Jean-Philippe Thiran, Matteo Sorci, Gianluca Antonini, Javier Cruz Mota, Thomas Robin

A recent internet based survey of over 35'000 samples has shown that when different human observers are asked to assign labels to static human facial expressions, different individuals categorize differently the same image. This fact results in a lack of a ...

Likelihood-Based Inference for Max-Stable Processes

Simone Padoan

The last decade has seen max-stable processes emerge as a common tool for the statistical modeling of spatial extremes However, their application is complicated due to the unavailability of the multivariate density function and so likehhood-based methods r ...

Statistical analysis of clusters of extreme events

Mária Süveges

The thesis is a contribution to extreme-value statistics, more precisely to the estimation of clustering characteristics of extreme values. One summary measure of the tendency to form groups is the inverse average cluster size. In extreme-value context, th ...
