چکیده

The processing of facial images has received considerable attention by computer vision researchers because of the broad range of potential applications for systems that are able to encode and interpret facial images. Especially, reliable facial feature detection and tracking in an image sequence are still challenging problems. In this paper, we propose an extension of the RVM (relevance vector machine) for multivariate Bayesian regression and its application for automatically locating facial features after initial training.

Bayesian sparse reduced rank multivariate regression

Many modern statistical problems can be cast in the framework of multivariate regression, where the main task is to make statistical inference for a possibly sparse and low-rank coefficient matrix. The low-rank structure in the coefficient matrix is of intrinsic multivariate nature, which, when combined with sparsity, can further lift dimension reduction, conduct variable selection, and facilit...

A Soft-Input Soft-Output Target Detection Algorithm for Passive Radar

Abstract: This paper proposes a novel scheme for multi-static passive radar processing, based on soft-input soft-output processing and Bayesian sparse estimation. In this scheme, each receiver estimates the probability of target presence based on its received signal and the prior information received from a central processor. The resulting posterior target probabilities are transmitted to the c...

Efficient Learning and Feature Selection in High-Dimensional Regression

We present a novel algorithm for efficient learning and feature selection in high-dimensional regression problems. We arrive at this model through a modification of the standard regression model, enabling us to derive a probabilistic version of the well-known statistical regression technique of backfitting. Using the expectation-maximization algorithm, along with variational approximation metho...

The Family of Scale-Mixture of Skew-Normal Distributions and Its Application in Bayesian Nonlinear Regression Models

In previous studies on fitting non-linear regression models with the symmetric structure the normality is usually assumed in the analysis of data. This choice may be inappropriate when the distribution of residual terms is asymmetric. Recently, the family of scale-mixture of skew-normal distributions is the main concern of many researchers. This family includes several skewed and heavy-tailed d...
