Jump-Penalized Least Absolute Values Estimation of Scalar or Circle-Valued Signals

We study jump-penalized estimators based on least absolute deviations which are often referred to as Potts estimators. They are estimators for a parsimonious piecewise constant representation of noisy data having a noise distribution which has heavier tail ...

Research online: Robust tightly coupled GNSS/INS estimation for navigation

Jan Skaloud, Omar Garcia Crespillo, Michael Meurer

We designed a tightly-coupled integration between GNSS and inertial navigation systems (INS) where we modify the update step of a classical Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) to consider different robust estimators (such as M-estimators). We consider different f ...

Robust Tightly Coupled GNSS/INS Estimation for Navigation in Challenging Scenarios

Jan Skaloud, Omar Garcia Crespillo, Michael Meurer

The combination of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and Inertial Navigation System (INS) has become the baseline of many transportation applications. In this work, we design a tightly-coupled integration between GNSS and INS where we modify the u ...

Blowing in the Wind

Marta Martinez-Camara

Every day tons of pollutants are emitted into the atmosphere all around the world. These pollutants are altering the equilibrium of our planet, causing profound changes in its climate, increasing global temperatures, and raising the sea level. The need to ...

Robust compressive sensing of sparse signals: A review

Alonso Ramirez Manzanares, Rafael Eduardo Carrillo Rangel

Compressive sensing generally relies on the L2-norm for data fidelity, whereas in many applications robust estimators are needed. Among the scenarios in which robust performance is required, applications where the sampling process is performed in the prese ...

Likelihood estimators for multivariate extremes

Anthony Christopher Davison, Raphaël Huser

The main approach to inference for multivariate extremes consists in approximating the joint upper tail of the observations by a parametric family arising in the limit for extreme events. The latter may be expressed in terms of componentwise maxima, high t ...

Beyond Allan Variance - GMWM Framework For Sensor Calibration

Jan Skaloud, Stéphane Guerrier

Proposed 50 years ago for studying stability of oscillators, Allan Variance (AV) was accepted by IEEE as a standard for characterizing behavior of sensors. However, the inverse mapping, i.e. the estimation of noise-parameters from Allan Variance is less st ...

Reference-Free Automated Magnetic Sensor Calibration for Angle Estimation in Smart Knee Prostheses

Kamiar Aminian, Julien David Rechenmann, Arash Arami

In this work, we present a method for automated calibration of an implanted anisotropic magnetoresistive (AMR) sensor for measuring the internal-external rotation (IE) in a prosthetic knee without using any reference measurement. The measurement system con ...

Direct path integral estimators for isotope fractionation ratios

Michele Ceriotti, Bingqing Cheng

Fractionation of isotopes among distinct molecules or phases is a quantum effect which is often exploited to obtain insights on reaction mechanisms, biochemical, geochemical, and atmospheric phenomena. Accurate evaluation of isotope ratios in atomistic sim ...

Statistical Inference for Partially Observed Stochastic Epidemics

Andrea Kraus

This work is concerned with the estimation of the spreading potential of the disease in the initial stages of an epidemic. A speedy and accurate estimation is important for determining whether or not interventions are necessary to prevent a major outbreak. ...
