On Parameter Estimation Using Level Sets
Consider the problem of selecting the member of a parametrized family of curves that best matches a given curve. This is a key step in determining proper values for adjustable parameters in low-order plasma etching and deposition models. Level set methods o er several attractive features for treating such problems. This paper presents a parameter estimation scheme that exploits the level set fo...
متن کاملVariational Bayes Estimation of Mixing Coefficients
We investigate theoretically some properties of variational Bayes approximations based on estimating the mixing coefficients of known densities. We show that, with probability 1 as the sample size n grows large, the iterative algorithm for the variational Bayes approximation converges locally to the maximum likelihood estimator at the rate of O(1/n). Moreover, the variational posterior distribu...
متن کاملParameter Estimation in Gaussian Mixture Models with Malicious Noise, without Balanced Mixing Coefficients
We consider the problem of estimating the means of two Gaussians in a 2-Gaussian mixture, which is not balanced and is corrupted by noise of an arbitrary distribution. We present a robust algorithm to estimate the parameters, together with upper bounds on the numbers of samples required for the estimate to be correct, where the bounds are parametrised by the dimension, ratio of the mixing coeff...
متن کاملOptimal estimation of diffusion coefficients from single-particle trajectories.
How does one optimally determine the diffusion coefficient of a diffusing particle from a single-time-lapse recorded trajectory of the particle? We answer this question with an explicit, unbiased, and practically optimal covariance-based estimator (CVE). This estimator is regression-free and is far superior to commonly used methods based on measured mean squared displacements. In experimentally...
متن کاملAsymptotically efficient parameter estimation using quantized output observations
This paper studies identification of systems in which only quantized output observations are available. An identification algorithm for system gains is introduced that employs empirical measures from multiple sensor thresholds and optimizes their convex combinations. Strong convergence of the algorithm is first derived. The algorithm is then extended to a scenario of system identification with ...
