A non-parametric method of distribution estimation for univariate data is presented. The idea is to adapt the smoothing spline procedure used in regression to the estimation of distributions via a scatterplot smoothing of theempirical distribution function ...
We define texture mapping as an optimization problem for which the goal of preserving the maximum amount of information in the mapped texture. We derive a solution that is optimal in the least-squares sense and that corresponds to the pseudo-inverse of a r ...
We show that we can effectively fit arbitrarily complex animation models to noisy data extracted from ordinary face images. Our approach is based on least-squares adjustment, using of a set of progressively finer control triangulations and takes advantage ...
The use of standard numerical schemes to solve nonlinear advective-dispersive equations for the estimation of parameters is CPU-time consuming and hence not desirable for routine use. An efficient scheme using a novel mixing cell approach has been used to ...
We extend the discrete-time Chandrasekhar recursions for least-squares estimation in constant parameter state-space models to a class of structured time-variant state-space models, special cases of which often arise in adaptive filtering. It can be shown t ...
This article proposes an improvement of existing methods of origin-destination matrix estimation by an explicit use of data describing the structure of the matrix. These data can be obtained from parking surveys. The new model is applied on both illustrati ...
We define texture mapping as an optimization problem for which the goal of preserving the maximum amount of information in the mapped texture. We derive a solution that is optimal in the least-squares sense and that corresponds to the pseudo-inverse of a ...
We present a numerical two-step reconstruction procedure for digital off-axis Fresnel holograms. First, we retrieve the amplitude and phase of the object wave in the CCD plane. For each point we solve a weighted linear set of equations in the least-squares ...
The geometry of a modern imaging diffractometer is discussed in detail. A method to find all relevant instrument parameters from the control single-crystal measurement data is proposed and the limitations of such a procedure are indicated. Optimization of ...
Deals with the problem of worst-case parameter estimation in the presence of bounded uncertainties in a linear regression model. The problem has been formulated and solved in Chandrasekaran et al. (1997). It distinguishes itself from other estimation schem ...
