A spatially varying two-sample recombinant coalescent, with applications to HIV escape response
Statistical evolutionary models provide an important mechanism for describing and understanding the escape response of a viral population under a particular therapy. We present a ...

Nonparametric Bayesian Learning of Switching Linear Dynamical Systems
Many nonlinear dynamical phenomena can be effectively modeled by a system that switches among a set of conditionally linear dynamical modes. We consider two such models: the switc...

Bayesian Experimental Design of Magnetic Resonance Imaging Sequences
We show how improved sequences for magnetic resonance imaging can be found through optimization of Bayesian design scores. Combining approximate Bayesian inference and natural ima...

Near-minimax recursive density estimation on the binary hypercube
This paper describes a recursive estimation procedure for multivariate binary densities using orthogonal expansions. For d covariates, there are 2d basis coefficients to estimate,...

Self-organization using synaptic plasticity
Large networks of spiking neurons show abrupt changes in their collective dynamics resembling phase transitions studied in statistical physics. An example of this phenomenon is th...
