We address the problem of pulse shape discrimination (PSD) for radiation sources characterization by leveraging a Gaussian mixture variational autoencoder (GMVAE). When using PSD to characterize radiation sources, the number of emission sources and types of pulses to be classified is usually known.…
Single-photon light detection and ranging (Lidar) data can be used to capture depth and intensity profiles of a 3D scene. In a general setting, the scenes can have an unknown number of surfaces per pixel (semi-transparent surfaces or outdoor measurements), high background noise (strong ambient illum…
This paper discusses Expectation-Propagation (EP) methods for approximate Bayesian inference in the context of linear regression with Poisson noise. We review two main factor graphs used for generalized linear models and discuss how different EP algorithms can be derived. The estimation performance…
Texture analysis is an image processing task that can be conducted using the mathematical framework of multifractal analysis to study the regularity fluctuations of image intensity and the practical tools for their assessment, such as (wavelet) leaders. A recently introduced statistical model for le…
This paper presents a new Bayesian model and associated algorithm for depth and intensity profiling using full waveforms from time-correlated single-photon counting (TCSPC) measurements when the photon count in very low. The model represents each Lidar waveform as an unknown constant background leve…
This paper presents a Bayesian algorithm for linear spectral unmixing that accounts for outliers present in the data. The proposed model assumes that the pixel reflectances are linear mixtures of unknown endmembers, corrupted by an additional term modelling outliers and additive Gaussian noise. A Ma…
