abstract = {This work addresses the problem of determining whether two multivariate random time series have the same power spectral density (PSD), which has applications, for instance, in physical-layer security and cognitive radio. Remarkably, existing detectors for this problem do not usually provide any kind of optimality. Thus, we study here the existence under the Gaussian assumption of optimal invariant detectors for this problem, proving that the uniformly most powerful invariant test (UMPIT) does not exist. Thus, focusing on close hypotheses, we show that the locally most powerful invariant test (LMPIT) only exists for univariate time series. In the multivariate case, we prove that the LMPIT does not exist. However, this proof suggests two LMPIT-inspired detectors, one of which outperforms previously proposed approaches, as computer simulations show.},

A Point Distribution Model (PDM) is a popular landmark-based statistical shape model for segmentation. It requires choosing a model order, which determines how much of the variation seen in the training data is accounted for by the PDM. A good choice of the model order depends on the number of training samples and the noise level in the training data set. Yet the most common approach for choosing the model order simply keeps a predetermined percentage of the total shape variation. In this paper, we present a technique for choosing the model order based on information-theoretic criteria, and we show empirical evidence that the model order chosen by this technique provides a good trade-off between over- and underfitting.},

The key idea is to exploit shift invariance as a way of extracting many subspaces, which may then be approximated by a single extrinsic average. An automatic order determination rule for this extrinsic average is then the rule for determining the number of sources. Experimental results are presented for cases where the number of array snapshots is roughly half the number of array elements, and sources are well separated with respect to the Rayleigh limit.},

Commonly, ACS (and also CS) detectors require a priori knowledge of the cycle period, which in the ACS case is not an integer. To tackle the case of unknown cycle period, we propose an approach that combines a resampling technique, which handles the fractional part of the cycle period and allows the use of the generalized likelihood ratio test (GLRT), with a multiple hypothesis test, which handles the integer part of the cycle period. We control the probability of false alarm based on the known distribution of the individual GLRT statistic, results from order statistics, and the Holm multiple test procedure. To evaluate the performance of the proposed detector we consider a communications example, where simulation results show that the proposed technique outperforms state-of-the-art competitors.},

Assuming that the support of the sparse input signal is unknown, and that the diffused signal is observed only at a subset of nodes, we address the related problems of: 1) identifying the input and 2) interpolating the values of the diffused signal at the non-sampled nodes. We first consider the more tractable case where the coefficients of the diffusing graph filter are known and then address the problem of joint input and filter identification. The corresponding blind identification problems are formulated, novel convex relaxations are discussed, and modifications to incorporate a priori information on the sparse inputs are provided.},

Objetive: To assess the presence and distribution of rotors, and their relationship with areas of LA scar in patients with persistent AF. Conclusion: Rotational conduction is observed, to some degree, in the majority of sites evaluated in patients with persistent AF. Gyre complexity was greater in areas of higher voltage, and does not seem to be associated with any particular LA location.},

abstract = {Multi-channel intracardiac electrocardiograms (electrograms) are sequentially acquired, at the electrophysiology laboratory, in order to guide radio frequency catheter ablation during heart surgery performed on patients with sustained atrial fibrillation (AF). These electrograms are used by cardiologists to determine candidate areas for ablation (e.g., areas corresponding to high dominant frequencies or complex fractionated electrograms). In this paper, we introduce a novel hierarchical algorithm for causality discovery among these multi-output sequentially acquired electrograms. The causal model obtained provides important information about the propagation of the electrical signals inside the heart, uncovering wavefronts and activation patterns that will serve to increase our knowledge about AF and guide cardiologists towards candidate areas for catheter ablation. Numerical results on synthetic signals, generated using the FitzHugh-Nagumo model, show the good performance of the proposed approach.},

Our model builds on the Markov Indian buffet process to consider a potentially unbounded number of hidden Markov chains (sources) that evolve independently according to some dynamics, in which the state space can be either discrete or continuous. For posterior inference, we develop an algorithm based on particle Gibbs with ancestor sampling that can be efficiently applied to a wide range of source separation problems. We evaluate the performance of our iFDM on four well-known applications: multitarget tracking, cocktail party, power disaggregation, and multiuser detection. Our experimental results show that our approach for source separation does not only outperform previous approaches, but it can also handle problems that were computationally intractable for existing approaches.},

abstract = {Dealing with the whole dataset in big data estimation problems is usually unfeasible. A common solution then consists of dividing the data into several smaller sets, performing distributed Bayesian estimation and combining these partial estimates to obtain a global estimate. A major problem of this approach is the presence of a non-negligible bias in the partial estimators, due to the mismatch between the unknown true prior and the prior assumed in the estimation. A simple method to mitigate the effect of this bias is proposed in this paper. Essentially, the approach is based on using a reference data set to obtain a rough estimation of the parameter of interest, i.e., a reference parameter. This information is then communicated to the partial filters that handle the smaller data sets, which can thus use a refined prior centered around this parameter. Simulation results confirm the good performance of this scheme.},

abstract = {We present the design, implementation and evaluation of an enabling platform for locating and querying physical objects using existing WiFi network. We propose the use of WiFi management probes as a data transport mechanism for physical objects that are tagged with WiFi-enabled accelerometers and are capable of determining their state-of-use based on motion signatures. A local WiFi gateway captures these probes emitted from the connected objects and stores them locally after annotating them with a coarse grained location estimate using a proximity ranging algorithm. External applications can query the aggregated views of state-of-use and location traces of connected objects through a cloud-based query server. We present the technical architecture and algorithms of the proposed platform together with a prototype personal object analytics application and assess the feasibility of our different design decisions. This work makes important contributions by demonstrating that it is possible to build a pure network-based IoT analytics platform with only location and motion signatures of connected objects, and that the WiFi network is the key enabler for the future IoT applications.},

These EGMs are used by cardiologists to determine candidate areas for ablation (e.g., areas corresponding to high dominant frequencies or complex fractionated electrograms). In this paper, we introduce two hierarchical algorithms to retrieve the causal interactions among these multiple EGMs. Both algorithms are based on Granger causality, but other causality measures can be easily incorporated. In both cases, they start by selecting a root node, but they differ on the way in which they explore the set of signals to determine their causeeffect relationships: either testing the full set of unexplored signals (GS-CaRe) or performing a local search only among the set of neighbor EGMs (LS-CaRe). The ensuing causal model provides important information about the propagation of the electrical signals inside the atria, uncovering wavefronts and activation patterns that can guide cardiologists towards candidate areas for catheter ablation. Numerical experiments, on both synthetic signals and annotated real-world signals, show the good performance of the two proposed approaches.},

Thus, the number of active users is an unknown and time-varying parameter, and the performance of the system depends on how accurately this parameter is estimated over time. We address the problem of blind joint channel parameter and data estimation in a multiuser communication channel in which the number of transmitters is not known. For that purpose, we develop a Bayesian nonparametric model based on the Markov Indian buffet process and an inference algorithm that makes use of slice sampling and particle Gibbs with ancestor sampling. Our experimental results show that the proposed approach can effectively recover the data-generating process for a wide range of scenarios.},

In this paper, we propose a novel low-complexity hard and soft output equalizer based on the Expectation Propagation (EP) algorithm that provides high-accuracy posterior probability estimations at the input of the channel decoder with similar computational complexity than the linear MMSE. We experimentally show that this quasi-optimal solution outperforms classical solutions reducing the bit error probability with low complexity when LDPC channel decoding is used, avoiding the curse of dimensionality with channel memory and constellation size.},

We then show that the finite-length performance of a GLDPC code can be estimated by means of a simple scaling law, where a single scaling parameter represents the finite-length properties of the code. We also show that, as we consider stronger component codes, both the asymptotic threshold and the finite-length scaling parameter are improved.},

abstract = {The finite-length performance of multi-edge spatially coupled low-density parity-check (SC-LDPC) codes over the binary erasure channel (BEC) is analyzed. Existing scaling laws are extended to arbitrary protograph base matrices that include puncturing patterns and multiple edges between nodes. A regular protograph-based SC-LDPC construction based on the (4; 8)-regular LDPC block code works well in the waterfall region compared to more involved rate-1/2 structures proposed to improve the threshold to minimum distance trade-off. Scaling laws are also used for code design and to estimate the block length of a given SC-LDPC code ensemble to match the performance of some other code. Estimates on the performance degradation are developed if the chain length varies.},

abstract = {We introduce a probabilistic approach to the LMS filter. By means of an efficient approximation, this approach provides an adaptable step-size LMS algorithm together with a measure of uncertainty about the estimation. In addition, the proposed approximation preserves the linear complexity of the standard LMS. Numerical results show the improved performance of the algorithm with respect to standard LMS and state-of-the-art algorithms with similar complexity. The goal of this work, therefore, is to open the door to bring somemore Bayesian machine learning techniques to adaptive filtering.},

abstract = {Monte Carlo (MC) methods are widely used in signal processing and machine learning. A well-known class of MC methods is composed of importance sampling and its adaptive extensions (e.g., population Monte Carlo). In this paper, we introduce an adaptive importance sampler using a population of proposal densities. The novel algorithm dynamically optimizes the cloud of proposals, adapting them using information about the gradient and Hessian matrix of the target distribution. Moreover, a new kind of interaction in the adaptation of the proposal densities is introduced, establishing a trade-off between attaining a good performance in terms of mean square error and robustness to initialization.},

abstract = {Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) are one of the most important techniques to model and classify sequential data. Maximum Likelihood (ML) and (parametric and non-parametric) Bayesian estimation of the HMM parameters suffers from local maxima and in massive datasets they can be specially time consuming. In this paper, we extend the spectral learning of HMMs, a moment matching learning technique free from local maxima, to discriminative HMMs. The resulting method provides the posterior probabilities of the classes without explicitly determining the HMM parameters, and is able to deal with missing labels. We apply the method to Human Activity Recognition (HAR) using two different types of sensors: portable inertial sensors, and fixed, wireless binary sensor networks. Our algorithm outperforms the standard discriminative HMM learning in both complexity and accuracy.},
