  1. 21. Bayesian inference in probabilistic graphical models

    Författare :Felix Leopoldo Rios; Tatjana Pavlenko; Alun Thomas; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Graphical models; Bayesian inference; predictive classification; decomposable graphs; Tillämpad matematik och beräkningsmatematik; Applied and Computational Mathematics;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of four papers studying structure learning and Bayesian inference in probabilistic graphical models for both undirected and directed acyclic graphs (DAGs).Paper A presents a novel algorithm, called the Christmas tree algorithm (CTA), that incrementally construct junction trees for decomposable graphs by adding one node at a time to the underlying graph.

  2. 22. Bayesian Models for Multilingual Word Alignment

    Författare :Robert Östling; Mats Wirén; Ola Knutsson; Jörg Tiedemann; Sharon Goldwater; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; word alignment; parallel text; Bayesian models; MCMC; linguistic typology; sign language; annotation transfer; transfer learning; Linguistics; lingvistik;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis I explore Bayesian models for word alignment, how they can be improved through joint annotation transfer, and how they can be extended to parallel texts in more than two languages. In addition to these general methodological developments, I apply the algorithms to problems from sign language research and linguistic typology. LÄS MER

  3. 23. Conjugate priors for Bayesian object tracking

    Författare :Yuxuan Xia; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bayesian estimation; object tracking; multi-object smoothing; backward simulation; automotive radar; extended object; conjugate prior; random finite sets; multi-object tracking; sets of trajectories.;

    Sammanfattning : Object tracking refers to the problem of using noisy sensor measurements to determine the location and characteristics of objects of interest in clutter. Nowadays, object tracking has found applications in numerous research venues as well as application areas, including air traffic control, maritime navigation, remote sensing, intelligent video surveillance, and more recently environmental perception, which is a key enabling technology in autonomous vehicles.

  4. 24. Bayesian learning of structured dynamical systems

    Författare :Riccardo Sven Risuleo; Håkan Hjalmarsson; Johan Schoukens; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; system identification; bayesian learning; machine learning; Gaussian processes; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, we propose some Bayesian approaches to the identificationof structured dynamical systems. In particular, we consider block-orientedmodels in which a complex system is built starting from simple linear andnonlinear building blocks. LÄS MER

  5. 25. Learning local predictive accuracy for expert evaluation and forecast combination

    Författare :Oscar Oelrich; Mattias Villani; Francesco Ravazzolo; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bayesian; forecast combination; predictive density; Gaussian process; bootstrap; Bayes factors; model selection; Bayesian predictive synthesis; nonparametric methods; power transformation; expected log predictive density; variable selection; statistik; Statistics;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of four papers that study several topics related to expert evaluation and aggregation. Paper I explores the properties of Bayes factors. Bayes factors, which are used for Bayesian hypothesis testing as well as to aggregate models using Bayesian model averaging, are sometimes observed to behave erratically. LÄS MER
