Flexible Prior Models in Bayesian Image Analysis
نویسنده
چکیده
A new class of prior models is proposed for Bayesian image analysis. This class of priors provides an inherent geometrical flexibility, which is achieved through a transformation of the coordinate system of the prior distribution or model into that of the object under analysis. Thus prior morphological information about the object being reconstructed may be adapted to various degrees to match the available measurements. An example of tomographic reconstruction illustrates the potential of this approach.

Introducing of Dirichlet process prior in the Nonparametric Bayesian models frame work
Statistical models are utilized to learn about the mechanism that the data are generating from it. Often it is assumed that the random variables y_i,i=1,…,n ,are samples from the probability distribution F which is belong to a parametric distributions class. However, in practice, a parametric model may be inappropriate to describe the data. In this settings, the parametric assumption could be r...
متن کاملA Bayesian approach for image denoising in MRI
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a notable medical imaging technique that is based on Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR). MRI is a safe imaging method with high contrast between soft tissues, which made it the most popular imaging technique in clinical applications. MR Imagechr('39')s visual quality plays a vital role in medical diagnostics that can be severely corrupted by existing noise duri...

Bayesian evolutionary analysis provide a statistically sound and flexible framework for estimation of evolutionary parameters. In this method, posterior estimates of evolutionary rate (μ) are derived by combining evolutionary information in the data with researcher’s prior knowledge about the true value of μ. Nucleotide sequence samples of fast evolving pathogens that are taken at d...

This paper develops default priors for Bayesian analysis that reproduce familiar frequentist and Bayesian analyses for models that are exponential or location. For the vector parameter case there is an information adjustment that avoids the Bayesian marginalization paradoxes and properly targets the prior on the parameter of interest thus adjusting for any complicating nonlinearity the details ...

A new flexible prior for Bayesian image analysis and reservoir modelling is defined in terms of interacting coloured Voronoi cells described by a certain nearest-neighbour Markov point process. This prior can be defined in both two and three (as well as higher) dimensions, and simple MCMC algorithms can be used for drawing inference from the posterior distribution. Various 2D and 3D application...
