This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Researchers in many disciplines face the formidable task of analyzing massive amounts of high-dimensional and highly-structured data. This is due in part to recent advances in data collection and computing technologies. As a result, fundamental statistical research is being undertaken in a variety of different fields. Driven by the complexity of these new problems, and fueled by the explosion of available computer power, highly adaptive, non-linear procedures are now essential components of modern "data analysis," a term that we liberally interpret to include speech and pattern recognition, classification, data compression and signal processing. The development of new, flexible methods combines advances from many sources, including approximation theory, numerical analysis, machine learning, signal processing and statistics. The proposed workshop intends to bring together eminent experts from these fields in order to exchange ideas and forge directions for the future.

Book Nonlinear Estimation

Download or read book Nonlinear Estimation written by Shovan Bhaumik and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-07-24 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nonlinear Estimation: Methods and Applications with Deterministic Sample Points focusses on a comprehensive treatment of deterministic sample point filters (also called Gaussian filters) and their variants for nonlinear estimation problems, for which no closed-form solution is available in general. Gaussian filters are becoming popular with the designers due to their ease of implementation and real time execution even on inexpensive or legacy hardware. The main purpose of the book is to educate the reader about a variety of available nonlinear estimation methods so that the reader can choose the right method for a real life problem, adapt or modify it where necessary and implement it. The book can also serve as a core graduate text for a course on state estimation. The book starts from the basic conceptual solution of a nonlinear estimation problem and provides an in depth coverage of (i) various Gaussian filters such as the unscented Kalman filter, cubature and quadrature based filters, Gauss-Hermite filter and their variants and (ii) Gaussian sum filter, in both discrete and continuous-discrete domain. Further, a brief description of filters for randomly delayed measurement and two case-studies are also included. Features: The book covers all the important Gaussian filters, including filters with randomly delayed measurements. Numerical simulation examples with detailed matlab code are provided for most algorithms so that beginners can verify their understanding. Two real world case studies are included: (i) underwater passive target tracking, (ii) ballistic target tracking. The style of writing is suitable for engineers and scientists. The material of the book is presented with the emphasis on key ideas, underlying assumptions, algorithms, and properties. The book combines rigorous mathematical treatment with matlab code, algorithm listings, flow charts and detailed case studies to deepen understanding.

  • Publisher : Springer Science & Business Media
  • Release : 2012-12-06
  • ISBN : 1461234123
  • Pages : 198 pages

Download or read book Nonlinear Estimation written by Gavin J.S. Ross and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Non-Linear Estimation is a handbook for the practical statistician or modeller interested in fitting and interpreting non-linear models with the aid of a computer. A major theme of the book is the use of 'stable parameter systems'; these provide rapid convergence of optimization algorithms, more reliable dispersion matrices and confidence regions for parameters, and easier comparison of rival models. The book provides insights into why some models are difficult to fit, how to combine fits over different data sets, how to improve data collection to reduce prediction variance, and how to program particular models to handle a full range of data sets. The book combines an algebraic, a geometric and a computational approach, and is illustrated with practical examples. A final chapter shows how this approach is implemented in the author's Maximum Likelihood Program, MLP.

Book Nonlinear Estimation in Continuous Time Systems

Download or read book Nonlinear Estimation in Continuous Time Systems written by Paul Arthur Frost and published by . This book was released on 1968 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nonlinear estimation of continuous time nonstationary signals contained in additive Gaussian white noise is considered in this study. The theory presented is more general than former studies and most previously known results are easily obtained as special cases, including the Kalman-Bucy theory and the Stratonovich-Kushner equations. A new approach to continuous time estimation is developed which is in the same spirit as the Bode-Shannon approach to Wiener filter theory. It is shown, for the first time, that nonstationary continuous time processes containing additive Gaussian white noise can be transformed causally into an 'innovation process, ' or equivalently, a Gaussian white noise. This innovation process contains all of the information of the original process and consequently nonlinear estimators can be designed to operate on the innovations rather than on the original observations. This approach leads to a number of new descriptions of nonlinear estimators; the two most useful are a stochastic integral representation and an infinite orthogonal series representation. One of the important properties of the series description is that the series can be terminated after any specified number of terms, yielding a suboptimal nonlinear estimator and the remainder of the series can be summed and expressed in closed form. The innovation process approach is developed for nonstationary linear estimation as well as nonlinear estimation and a close correspondence between these two theories is demonstrated. Some new contributions to linear estimation theory are presented, including a proof of the causal invertibility of Kalman filters and a simple derivation of linear smoothing algorithms. (Author).

Book Grid based Nonlinear Estimation and Its Applications

Download or read book Grid based Nonlinear Estimation and Its Applications written by Bin Jia and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-04-25 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grid-based Nonlinear Estimation and its Applications presents new Bayesian nonlinear estimation techniques developed in the last two decades. Grid-based estimation techniques are based on efficient and precise numerical integration rules to improve performance of the traditional Kalman filtering based estimation for nonlinear and uncertainty dynamic systems. The unscented Kalman filter, Gauss-Hermite quadrature filter, cubature Kalman filter, sparse-grid quadrature filter, and many other numerical grid-based filtering techniques have been introduced and compared in this book. Theoretical analysis and numerical simulations are provided to show the relationships and distinct features of different estimation techniques. To assist the exposition of the filtering concept, preliminary mathematical review is provided. In addition, rather than merely considering the single sensor estimation, multiple sensor estimation, including the centralized and decentralized estimation, is included. Different decentralized estimation strategies, including consensus, diffusion, and covariance intersection, are investigated. Diverse engineering applications, such as uncertainty propagation, target tracking, guidance, navigation, and control, are presented to illustrate the performance of different grid-based estimation techniques.

Book A Practical Approach to Microarray Data Analysis

Download or read book A Practical Approach to Microarray Data Analysis written by Daniel P. Berrar and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-05-08 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past several years, DNA microarray technology has attracted tremendous interest in both the scientific community and in industry. With its ability to simultaneously measure the activity and interactions of thousands of genes, this modern technology promises unprecedented new insights into mechanisms of living systems. Currently, the primary applications of microarrays include gene discovery, disease diagnosis and prognosis, drug discovery (pharmacogenomics), and toxicological research (toxicogenomics). Typical scientific tasks addressed by microarray experiments include the identification of coexpressed genes, discovery of sample or gene groups with similar expression patterns, identification of genes whose expression patterns are highly differentiating with respect to a set of discerned biological entities (e.g., tumor types), and the study of gene activity patterns under various stress conditions (e.g., chemical treatment). More recently, the discovery, modeling, and simulation of regulatory gene networks, and the mapping of expression data to metabolic pathways and chromosome locations have been added to the list of scientific tasks that are being tackled by microarray technology. Each scientific task corresponds to one or more so-called data analysis tasks. Different types of scientific questions require different sets of data analytical techniques. Broadly speaking, there are two classes of elementary data analysis tasks, predictive modeling and pattern-detection. Predictive modeling tasks are concerned with learning a classification or estimation function, whereas pattern-detection methods screen the available data for interesting, previously unknown regularities or relationships.
