Distribution shift poses a significant challenge in machine learning, particularly in biomedical applications using data collected across different subjects, institutions, and recording devices, such as sleep data. While existing normalization layers, BatchNorm, LayerNorm and InstanceNorm, h…
Generating realistic brain connectivity matrices is key to analyzing population heterogeneity in brain organization, understanding disease, and augmenting data in challenging classification problems. Functional connectivity matrices lie in constrained spaces—such as the set of symmetric positive def…
Electroencephalography (EEG) data is often collected from diverse contexts involving different populations and EEG devices. This variability can induce distribution shifts in the data $X$ and in the biomedical variables of interest $y$, thus limiting the application of supervised machine learning (M…
This paper presents a new classification framework for both first and second order statistics, i.e. mean/location and covariance matrix. In the last decade, several covariance matrix classification algorithms have been proposed. They often leverage the Riemannian geometry of symmetric positive defin…
We consider the problem of jointly estimating the location and scatter matrix of a Compound Gaussian distribution with unknown deterministic texture parameters. When the location is known, the Maximum Likelihood Estimator (MLE) of the scatter matrix corresponds to Tyler’s M-estimator, which can be c…
