Introduction to Likelihood Statistics
noise. The noise is described by the width of the Gaussians, a di↵erent width for each measurement. The joint probability distribution for the data points is f(⇠~,~,a)= Yn i=1 1 p 2⇡ i exp 1 2 (⇠ i a)2 2, The joint likelihood function for all the measurements is L(~x,~,a)= Yn i=1 1 p 2⇡ i exp 1 2 (x i a)2 2.

Observing the World Around Us
hea-www.harvard.eduobservations and questions which we can use to explore the world around us. We look for answers that are consistent with our experience and with the accumulated knowledge of humankind. At all times we try to keep ourselves rooted in our own observations. We strive to maintain a connection between what we are exploring

Canonical Correlation a Tutorial
www.cs.cmu.eduCorrelation is strongly related to signal to noise ratio (SNR), which is a more com-monly used measure in signal processing. Consider a signal x and two noise signals 1 and 2 all having zero mean1 and all being uncorrelated with each other. Let S = E [x 2] and N i i be the energy of the signal and the noise signals respectively. Then the ...

The probability density estimates of the object appearance can either be parametric, such as Gaussian [Zhu and Yuille 1996] and a mixture of Gaussians [Paragios and Deriche 2002], or nonparametric, such as Parzen windows [Elgammal et al. 2002] and histograms [Comaniciu et al. 2003].
