In this paper, we propose an affine parameter estimation algorithm from block motion vectors for extracting accurate motion information with the assumption that the undergoing motion can be characterized by an affine model. The motion may be caused either by a moving camera or a moving object. The proposed method first extracts motion vectors from a sequence of images by using size-variable blo...

An estimation problem of the mean µ of an inverse Gaussian distribution IG(µ, C µ) with known coefficient of variation c is treated as a decision problem with entropy loss function. A class of Bayes estimators is constructed, and shown to include MRSE estimator as its closure. Two important members of this class can easily be computed using continued fractions

Much past work on solving Markov decision processes (MDPs) using reinforcement learning (RL) has relied on combining parameter estimation methods with hand-designed function approximation architectures for representing value functions. Recently, there has been growing interest in a broader framework that combines representation discovery and control learning, where value functions are approxima...

‎Consider an estimation problem in a one-parameter non-regular distribution when both endpoints of the support depend on a single parameter‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎we give sufficient conditions for a generalized Bayes estimator of a parametric function to be admissible‎. ‎Some examples are given‎. ‎

Here, we propose a method of estimation of the derivatives of probability density based wavelets methods for a sequence of m−dependent random variables with a common one-dimensional probability density function and obtain an upper bound on Lp-losses for the such estimators.

Background: Optimal allocation of resources commensurate with performance improvement is the concerns of all countries including Iran. Estimation hospitals production function is important in the economic management of hospitals. Objective: The aim of this study was to estimate the production function of Iranian selected public hospitals as well as analyz...

State estimation is essential to access observable network models for online monitoring and analyzing of power systems. Due to the integration of distributed energy resources and new technologies, state estimation in distribution systems would be necessary. However, accurate input data are essential for an accurate estimation along with knowledge on the possible correlation between the real and...
