Maximum a Posteriori Estimation of Dynamically Changing Distributions
This paper presents a sequential state estimation method with arbitrary probabilistic models expressing the system’s belief. Probabilistic models can be estimated by Maximum a posteriori estimators (MAP), which fail, if the state is dynamic or the model contains hidden variables. The last typically requires iterative methods like expectation maximization (EM). The proposed approximative techniq...
متن کاملOcean acoustic inversion with estimation of a posteriori probability distributions
Inversion methods are applied in ocean acoustics to infer parameters which characterize the environment. The objective of this paper is to provide such estimates, and means of evaluating the inherent uncertainty of the parameter estimates. In a Bayesian approach, the result of inversion is the a posteriori probability density for the estimated parameters, from which all information such as mean...
متن کاملA unifying theory of a posteriori finite element error control
Residual-based a posteriori error estimates are derived within a unified setting for lowest-order conforming, nonconforming, and mixed finite element schemes. The various residuals are identified for all techniques and problems as the operator norm ‖`‖ of a linear functional of the form
متن کاملStructural speaker adaptation using maximum a posteriori approach and a Gaussian distributions merging technique
The aim of speaker adaptation techniques is to enhance the speaker-independent acoustic models to bring their recognition accuracy as close as possible to the one obtained with speaker-dependent models. Recently, a technique based on hierarchical structure and the maximum a posteriori criterion was proposed (SMAP). In this paper, like in SMAP, we assume that the acoustic models parameters are o...
متن کاملCoding Theory and Uniform Distributions
In the present paper we introduce and study finite point subsets of a special kind, called optimum distributions, in the n-dimensional unit cube. Such distributions are closely related with known (δ, s, n)-nets of low discrepancy. It turns out that optimum distributions have a rich combinatorial structure. Namely, we show that optimum distributions can be characterized completely as maximum dis...
