Statistical physics of inference: Thresholds and algorithms
Many questions of fundamental interest in today’s science can be formulated as inference problems: Some partial, or noisy, observations are performed over a set of variables and the goal is to recover, or infer, the values of the variables based on the indirect information contained in the measurements. For such problems, the central scientific questions are: Under what conditions is the inform...

متن کاملStatistical Physics of Clustering Algorithms
Acknowledgments It is my pleasure to thank Prof. Klaus Obermayer for an excellent supervision with numerous discussions and fruitful suggestions. I would also like to thank Matthias Burger, who was my collaborator in the work on which Chapter 4 and Chapter 5 are based. Both Matthias Burger and Ralf Herbrich proofread the manuscript and provided moral support. Also, I am indebted to Prof. Eckeha...
متن کاملFree Energy in Statistical Physics and Inference
Random notes on the useage of the free energy in statistical physics and inference. Taken from David's book Chapter 31 on Ising models, Radford Neal's review of MCMC methods, and Yedidia, Freeman and Weiss's introduction to understanding belief propogation and its generalisations. First of all we briefly summarise statistical physics: micro-state = exact microscopic description of a physical sy...
متن کاملProcrustean statistical inference of deformations
A two step method has been devised for the statistical inference of deformation changes. In the first step of this method and based on Procrustes analysis of deformation tensors, the significance of the change in a time or space series of deformation tensors is statistically analyzed. In the second step significant change(s) in deformations are localized. In other words, they are assigned to ce...
