Adaptive density estimation using an orthogonal series for global illumination
In Monte-Carlo photon-tracing methods energy-carrying particles are traced in an environment to generate hit points on object surfaces for simulating global illumination. The surf...

Maximum-Entropy Expectation-Maximization Algorithm for Image Reconstruction and Sensor Field Estimation
Abstract--In this paper, we propose a maximum-entropy expectation-maximization (MEEM) algorithm. We use the proposed algorithm for density estimation. The maximum-entropy constrain...

Bivariate density estimation using BV regularisation
In this paper we study the problem of bivariate density estimation. The aim is to find a density function with the smallest number of local extreme values which is adequate with ...

A Bayesian approach to bandwidth selection for multivariate kernel density estimation
: Kernel density estimation for multivariate data is an important technique that has a wide range of applications. However, it has received significantly less attention than its un...

Classification Based on Multiple-Resolution Data View
Abstract. We examine efficacy of a classifier based on average of kernel density estimators; each estimator corresponds to a different data "resolution". Parameters of th...

Utilities as Random Variables: Density Estimation and Structure Discovery
Decision theory does not traditionally include uncertainty over utility functions. We argue that the a person's utility value for a given outcome can be treated as we treat o...

Quantizing Density Estimators
We suggest a nonparametric framework for unsupervised learning of projection models in terms of density estimation on quantized sample spaces. The objective is not to optimally re...

Direct Importance Estimation with Model Selection and Its Application to Covariate Shift Adaptation
A situation where training and test samples follow different input distributions is called covariate shift. Under covariate shift, standard learning methods such as maximum likeli...
