Codecs: Encoding/decoding images and sounds

Codecs pose numerous analytical problems for software scholars. They are mathematically deep. Coming to grips with them may entail lengthy immersion in technical details. Although they are responsible for displaying many moving images on screens today, codecs themselves often hide in hardware and lower-level code. They come to light occasionally, usually in the form of an error message saying t...

Bayesian decoding of brain images

This paper introduces a multivariate Bayesian (MVB) scheme to decode or recognise brain states from neuroimages. It resolves the ill-posed many-to-one mapping, from voxel values or data features to a target variable, using a parametric empirical or hierarchical Bayesian model. This model is inverted using standard variational techniques, in this case expectation maximisation, to furnish the mod...
