We describe a set of probability distributions, dubbed compressible priors, whose independent and identically distributed (iid) realizations result in p-compressible signals. A signal x in R^N is called p-compressible with magnitude R if its sorted coeffic ...
In this paper, we propose a face reconstruction technique that produces models that not only look good when texture mapped, but are also metrically accurate. Our method is designed to work with short uncalibrated video or movie sequences, even when the lig ...
The saddlepoint approximation was introduced into statistics in 1954 by Henry E. Daniels. This basic result on approximating the density function of the sample mean has been generalized to many situations. The accuracy of this approximation is very good, p ...
In this paper we present a new approach towards high performance speech/music segmentation on realistic tasks related to the automatic transcription of broadcast news. In the approach presented here, the local probability density function (PDF) estimators ...
Olfactometer experiments are used to determine the effect of odours on the behaviour of organisms such as insects or nematodes, and typically result in data comprising many groups of small counts, overdispersed relative to the multinomial distribution. Ove ...
In this paper, we present a new approach towards high performance speech/music discrimination on realistic tasks related to the automatic transcription of broadcast news. In the approach presented here, the (local) Probability Density Function (PDF) estima ...
The Preisach approach was used to describe the widely observed quadratic field dependence of the direct longitudinal piezoelectric coefficient and its associated hysteresis loop. In this perspective, a four parameters distribution function was put forward ...
This paper presents a calibration framework based on the generalized likelihood uncertainty estimation (GLUE) that can be used to condition hydrological model parameter distributions in scarcely gauged river basins, where data is uncertain, intermittent or ...
A model for the yield stress of particulate suspensions is presented that incorporates microstructural parameters taking into account volume fraction of solids, particle size, particle size distribution, maximum packing, percolation threshold, and interpar ...
