Gaussian and Sparse Processes Are Limits of Generalized Poisson Processes
The theory of sparse stochastic processes offers a broad class of statistical models to study signals. In this framework, signals are represented as realizations of random processes that are solution of linear stochastic differential equations driven by white Lévy noises. Among these processes, generalized Poisson processes based on compoundPoisson noises admit an interpretation as random L-spl...
متن کاملVariational Gaussian approximation for Poisson data
The Poisson model is frequently employed to describe count data, but in a Bayesian context it leads to an analytically intractable posterior probability distribution. In this work, we analyze a variational Gaussian approximation to the posterior distribution arising from the Poisson model with a Gaussian prior. This is achieved by seeking an optimal Gaussian distribution minimizing the Kullback...
متن کاملOptimality of Poisson processes intensity learning with Gaussian processes
In this paper we provide theoretical support for the so-called “Sigmoidal Gaussian Cox Process” approach to learning the intensity of an inhomogeneous Poisson process on a ddimensional domain. This method was proposed by Adams, Murray and MacKay (ICML, 2009), who developed a tractable computational approach and showed in simulation and real data experiments that it can work quite satisfactorily...
متن کاملApproximation of Hunt Processes by Multivariate Poisson Processes
We prove that arbitrary Hunt processes on a general state space can be approximated by multivariate Poisson processes starting from each point of the state space. The key point is that no additional regularity assumption on the state space and on the underlying transition semigroup is used.
متن کاملPoisson limits for empirical point processes
Define the scaled empirical point process on an independent and identically distributed sequence {Yi : i ≤ n} as the random point measure with masses at a n Yi. For suitable an we obtain the weak limit of these point processes through a novel use of a dimension-free method based on the convergence of compensators of multiparameter martingales. The method extends previous results in several dire...
