Book Poisson Point Processes

Download or read book Poisson Point Processes written by Roy L. Streit and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-09-15 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Poisson Point Processes provides an overview of non-homogeneous and multidimensional Poisson point processes and their numerous applications. Readers will find constructive mathematical tools and applications ranging from emission and transmission computed tomography to multiple target tracking and distributed sensor detection, written from an engineering perspective. A valuable discussion of the basic properties of finite random sets is included. Maximum likelihood estimation techniques are discussed for several parametric forms of the intensity function, including Gaussian sums, together with their Cramer-Rao bounds. These methods are then used to investigate: -Several medical imaging techniques, including positron emission tomography (PET), single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), and transmission tomography (CT scans) -Various multi-target and multi-sensor tracking applications, -Practical applications in areas like distributed sensing and detection, -Related finite point processes such as marked processes, hard core processes, cluster processes, and doubly stochastic processes, Perfect for researchers, engineers and graduate students working in electrical engineering and computer science, Poisson Point Processes will prove to be an extremely valuable volume for those seeking insight into the nature of these processes and their diverse applications.

Book Adaptive Estimation of Doubly Stochastic Poisson Processes with Application to Adaptive Optics

Download or read book Adaptive Estimation of Doubly Stochastic Poisson Processes with Application to Adaptive Optics written by Robert B. Asher and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The optimal adaptive estimator structures for a class of doubly stochastic Poisson processes (DSPP) are presented. The structure is used along with a moment assumption to obtain implementable estimators. The class of DSPP considered is that of a linear Markov diffusion process modulating a linear intensity rate. The uncertainty for which the adaptation process is developed includes both structure uncertainty in the Markov diffusion process, and parameter uncertainty in the Markov diffusion process and the intensity rate process. Results are given on the problem of adaptation of which of a finite number of Markov realizations is modulating the intensity process. The nonlinear adaptive estimator structures are obtained by use of a particular theorem that yields an optimal structure for the adaptive estimator. The structure is used to obtain a quasi-optimal adaptive estimator for the problem by use of a zero third central moment assumption. The estimator structure consists of a nonlinear, nonadaptive part, and a nonlinear, adaptive part which contains the parameter structure adaptations.

Book Nonparametric Studies of Doubly Stochastic Poisson Processes  Binomial Data  and High Dimension  Low Sample Size Data

Download or read book Nonparametric Studies of Doubly Stochastic Poisson Processes Binomial Data and High Dimension Low Sample Size Data written by Tingting Zhang and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We illustrate through examples that those nonparametric Bayes estimates based on the Bernstein-Dirichlet process are more robust to sample variation and tend to have smaller estimation errors than those based on the Dirichlet process. In certain settings, the new estimators can even outperform Stein's estimator and Efron and Morris's limited translation estimator. Chapter 3 examines the asymptotic behavior of the correlation pursuit stepwise variable selection procedure that has been proposed recently by (Zhong et al ., 2008). More specifically, we analyze the asymptotic distribution of the test statistics under the null hypothesis of no effect for selected predictors and the power of the test under the alternative hypothesis. We also compare the new procedure with the classical linear regression algorithm for linear models, and discuss the possibility of generalizing the method to multiple index models.

Book Estimation of the Rate of a Doubly Stochastic Time Space Poisson Process

Download or read book Estimation of the Rate of a Doubly Stochastic Time Space Poisson Process written by and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors consider the problem of estimating the rate of a doubly-stochastic, time-space Poisson process when the observations are restricted to a region D reflex subset contained in R(exp 2). In the general case, they obtain a representation of the minimum mean-square-error (MMSE) estimate in terms of the conditional characteristic function of an underlying state process. In the case D = R(exp 2), they extend a known result to compute the MMSE estimate explicitly. For a special form of the rate process, a well-defined integral equation is presented which defines the linear MMSE estimate of the rate.

Book An Introduction to Stochastic Modeling

Download or read book An Introduction to Stochastic Modeling written by Howard M. Taylor and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2014-05-10 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Introduction to Stochastic Modeling provides information pertinent to the standard concepts and methods of stochastic modeling. This book presents the rich diversity of applications of stochastic processes in the sciences. Organized into nine chapters, this book begins with an overview of diverse types of stochastic models, which predicts a set of possible outcomes weighed by their likelihoods or probabilities. This text then provides exercises in the applications of simple stochastic analysis to appropriate problems. Other chapters consider the study of general functions of independent, identically distributed, nonnegative random variables representing the successive intervals between renewals. This book discusses as well the numerous examples of Markov branching processes that arise naturally in various scientific disciplines. The final chapter deals with queueing models, which aid the design process by predicting system performance. This book is a valuable resource for students of engineering and management science. Engineers will also find this book useful.

Book Statistical Parametric Mapping  The Analysis of Functional Brain Images

Download or read book Statistical Parametric Mapping The Analysis of Functional Brain Images written by William D. Penny and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2011-04-28 with total page 689 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an age where the amount of data collected from brain imaging is increasing constantly, it is of critical importance to analyse those data within an accepted framework to ensure proper integration and comparison of the information collected. This book describes the ideas and procedures that underlie the analysis of signals produced by the brain. The aim is to understand how the brain works, in terms of its functional architecture and dynamics. This book provides the background and methodology for the analysis of all types of brain imaging data, from functional magnetic resonance imaging to magnetoencephalography. Critically, Statistical Parametric Mapping provides a widely accepted conceptual framework which allows treatment of all these different modalities. This rests on an understanding of the brain's functional anatomy and the way that measured signals are caused experimentally. The book takes the reader from the basic concepts underlying the analysis of neuroimaging data to cutting edge approaches that would be difficult to find in any other source. Critically, the material is presented in an incremental way so that the reader can understand the precedents for each new development. This book will be particularly useful to neuroscientists engaged in any form of brain mapping; who have to contend with the real-world problems of data analysis and understanding the techniques they are using. It is primarily a scientific treatment and a didactic introduction to the analysis of brain imaging data. It can be used as both a textbook for students and scientists starting to use the techniques, as well as a reference for practicing neuroscientists. The book also serves as a companion to the software packages that have been developed for brain imaging data analysis. - An essential reference and companion for users of the SPM software - Provides a complete description of the concepts and procedures entailed by the analysis of brain images - Offers full didactic treatment of the basic mathematics behind the analysis of brain imaging data - Stands as a compendium of all the advances in neuroimaging data analysis over the past decade - Adopts an easy to understand and incremental approach that takes the reader from basic statistics to state of the art approaches such as Variational Bayes - Structured treatment of data analysis issues that links different modalities and models - Includes a series of appendices and tutorial-style chapters that makes even the most sophisticated approaches accessible
