Recursive Variational Bayesian Inference to Simultaneous Registration and Fusion

open access: yesInternational Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2016
In this paper, we propose a novel simultaneous registration and fusion approach for tracking. This method is based on a recursive Variational Bayesian (RVB) algorithm, which is the online variant of the Variational Bayesian (VB) approach.

Dynamic causal modelling of COVID-19 and its mitigations

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
This technical report describes the dynamic causal modelling of mitigated epidemiological outcomes during the COVID-9 coronavirus outbreak in 2020. Dynamic causal modelling is a form of complex system modelling, which uses ‘real world’ timeseries to ...

Variational Bayesian image modelling

open access: yesProceedings of the 22nd international conference on Machine learning - ICML '05, 2005
We present a variational Bayesian framework for performing inference, density estimation and model selection in a special class of graphical models---Hidden Markov Random Fields (HMRFs). HMRFs are particularly well suited to image modelling and in this paper, we apply them to the problem of image segmentation.

High-Dimensional Variable Selection for Quantile Regression Based on Variational Bayesian Method

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
The quantile regression model is widely used in variable relationship research of moderate sized data, due to its strong robustness and more comprehensive description of response variable characteristics.

Variational Inference for Nonlinear Structural ‎Identification [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied and Computational Mechanics, 2021
Research interest in predictive modeling within the structural engineering community has recently been focused on Bayesian inference methods, with particular emphasis on analytical and sampling approaches. In this study, we explore variational inference,

Sampling the Variational Posterior with Local Refinement

open access: yesEntropy, 2021
Variational inference is an optimization-based method for approximating the posterior distribution of the parameters in Bayesian probabilistic models. A key challenge of variational inference is to approximate the posterior with a distribution that is ...

Objective Bayesian Inference in Probit Models with Intrinsic Priors Using Variational Approximations

open access: yesEntropy, 2020
There is not much literature on objective Bayesian analysis for binary classification problems, especially for intrinsic prior related methods. On the other hand, variational inference methods have been employed to solve classification problems using ...

Old Photos Restoration by Using VAE [PDF]

open access: yesSHS Web of Conferences, 2023
VAE is a generative model that “provides a probabilistic description of observations in potential Spaces”. Put simply, this means that VAE stores potential attributes as probability distributions.

Variationally Inferred Sampling through a Refined Bound

open access: yesEntropy, 2021
In this work, a framework to boost the efficiency of Bayesian inference in probabilistic models is introduced by embedding a Markov chain sampler within a variational posterior approximation.

Bayesian and variational Bayesian approaches for flows in heterogeneous random media [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Computational Physics, 2017
In this paper, we study porous media flows in heterogeneous stochastic media. We propose an efficient forward simulation technique that is tailored for variational Bayesian inversion. As a starting point, the proposed forward simulation technique decomposes the solution into the sum of separable functions (with respect to randomness and the space ...
