In this communication, we derive a new intrinsic Cramér-Rao bound for both parameters and observations lying on Lie groups. The expression is obtained by using the intrinsic properties of Lie groups. An exact expression is obtained for the case where parameters and observations are in SE(2), the sem…
We consider the optimal performance of blind separation of Gaussian sources. In practice, this estimation problem is solved by a two-step procedure: estimation of a set of covariance matrices from the observed data and approximate joint diagonalization of this set to find the unmixing matrix. Rather…
A growing problem in the remote sensing community concerns the estimation of change-points in a time series of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images. Although the methodologies of change-point estimation have already been investigated in the literature, there are, to the best of our knowledge, no st…
This paper derives lower bounds for the mean square errors of parameter estimators in the case of Poisson distributed data subjected to multiple abrupt changes. Since both change locations (discrete parameters) and parameters of the Poisson distribution (continuous parameters) are unknown, it is app…
In many deterministic estimation problems, the probability density function (p.d.f.) parameterized by unknown deterministic parameters results from the marginalization of a joint p.d.f. depending on additional random variables. Unfortunately, this marginalization is often mathematically intractable,…
In statistical signal processing, hybrid parameter estimation refers to the case where the parameters vector to estimate contains both non-random and random parameters. Numerous works have shown the versatility of deterministic constrained Cramér-Rao bound for estimation performance analysis and des…
