We present novel wavelet-based inpainting algorithms. Applying ideas from anisotropic regularization and diffusion, our models can better handle degraded pixels at edges. We interpret our algorithms within the framework of forward-backward splitting methods in convex analysis and prove that the conditions for ensuring their convergence are fulfilled. Numerical examples illustrate the good performance of our algorithms.

Realistic prognostic tools are essential for effective condition-based maintenance systems. In this paper, a Duration-Dependent Hidden Semi-Markov Model (DD-HSMM) is proposed, which overcomes the shortcomings of traditional Hidden Markov Models (HMM), including the Hidden Semi-Markov Model (HSMM): (1) it allows explicit modeling of state transition probabilities between the states;(2) it relaxes observations' independence assumption by accommodating a connection between consecutive observations;and (3) it does not follow the unrealistic Markov chain's memoryless assumption and therefore it provides a more powerful modeling and analysis capability for real world problems. To facilitate the computation of the proposed DD-HSMM methodology, new forward-backward algorithm is developed. The demonstration and evaluation of the proposed methodology is carried out through a case study. The experimental results show that the DD-HSMM methodology is effective for equipment health monitoring and management.

Bayesian modeling requires the specification of prior and likelihood models. In reservoir characterization, it is common practice to estimate the prior from a training image. This paper considers a multi-grid approach for the construction of prior models for binary variables. On each grid level we adopt a Markov random field (MRF) conditioned on values in previous levels. Parameter estimation in MRFs is complicated by a computationally intractable normalizing constant. To cope with this problem, we generate a partially ordered Markov model (POMM) approximation to the MRF and use this in the model fitting procedure. Approximate unconditional simulation from the fitted model can easily be done by again adopting the POMM approximation to the fitted MRF. Approximate conditional simulation, for a given and easy to compute likelihood function, can also be performed either by the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm based on an approximation to the fitted MRF or by constructing a new POMM approximation to this approximate conditional distribution. The proposed methods are illustrated using three frequently used binary training images.

Proximal splitting algorithms for monotone inclusions (and convex optimization problems) in Hilbert spaces share the common feature to guarantee for the generated sequences in general weak convergence to a solution. In order to achieve strong convergence, one usually needs to impose more restrictive properties for the involved operators, like strong monotonicity (respectively, strong convexity for optimization problems). In this paper, we propose a modified Krasnosel'skii-Mann algorithm in connection with the determination of a fixed point of a nonexpansive mapping and show strong convergence of the iteratively generated sequence to the minimal norm solution of the problem. Relying on this, we derive a forward-backward and a Douglas-Rachford algorithm, both endowed with Tikhonov regularization terms, which generate iterates that strongly converge to the minimal norm solution of the set of zeros of the sum of two maximally monotone operators. Furthermore, we formulate strong convergent primal-dual algorithms of forward-backward and Douglas-Rachford-type for highly structured monotone inclusion problems involving parallel-sums and compositions with linear operators. The resulting iterative schemes are particularized to the solving of convex minimization problems. The theoretical results are illustrated by numerical experiments on the split feasibility problem in infinite dimensional spaces.

In this work, we propose a modified inertial and forward-backward splitting method for solving the fixed point problem of a quasi-nonexpansive multivalued mapping and the inclusion problem. Then, we establish the weak convergence theorem of the proposed method. The strongly convergent theorem is also established under suitable assumptions in Hilbert spaces using the shrinking projection method. Some preliminary numerical experiments are tested to illustrate the advantage performance of our methods.

We predict facies from wireline well log data for a fluvial deposit system offshore Norway. The wireline well logs used are sonic, gamma ray, neutron porosity, bulk density and resistivity. We solve this inverse problem in a predictive Bayesian setting, and perform the associated model parameter estimation. Spatial vertical structure of the facies is included in the model by a Markov chain assumption, making geological model interpretation possible. We also take convolution effect into account, assuming that the observed logs might be measured as a weighted sum of properties over a facies interval. We apply the methods On real well data, with thick facies layers inferred from core samples. The proposed facies classification model is compared to a naive Bayesian classifier, which does not take into account neither vertical spatial dependency, dependencies between the wireline well logs nor convolution effect. Results from a blind well indicate that facies predictions from our model are more reliable than predictions from the naive model in terms of correct facies classification and predicted layer thickness.

This paper presents several techniques for the very large-scale integration (VLSI) implementation of the maximum a posteriori (MAP) algorithm. In general, knowledge about the implementation of the Viterbi algorithm can be applied to the MAP algorithm. Bounds are derived for the dynamic range of the state metrics which enable the designer to optimize the word length. The computational kernel of the algorithm is the Add-MAX* operation, which is the Add-Compare-Select operation of the Viterbi algorithm with an added offset. We show that the critical path of the algorithm can be reduced if the Add-MAX* operation is reordered into an Offset-Add-Compare-Select operation by adjusting the location of registers. A general scheduling for the MAP algorithm is presented which gives the tradeoffs between computational complexity, latency, and memory size. Some of these architectures eliminate the need for RAM blocks with unusual form factors or can replace the RAM with registers. These architectures are suited to VLSI implementation of turbo decoders.

The hidden Markov model regression (HMMR) has been popularly used in many fields such as gene expression and activity recognition. However, the traditional HMMR requires the strong linearity assumption for the emission model. In this article, we propose a hidden Markov model with non-parametric regression (HMM-NR), where the mean and variance of emission model are unknown smooth functions. The new semiparametric model might greatly reduce the modeling bias and thus enhance the applicability of the traditional hidden Markov model regression. We propose an estimation procedure for the transition probability matrix and the non-parametric mean and variance functions by combining the ideas of the EM algorithm and the kernel regression. Simulation studies and a real data set application are used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the new estimation procedure.

Nonlinear operator theory is an important area of nonlinear functional analysis. This area encompasses diverse nonlinear problems in many areas of mathematics, the physical sciences and engineering such as monotone operator equations, fixed point problems and more. In this work we are concern with the problem of finding a common solution of a monotone operator equation and fixed point of a nonexpansive mapping in real Hilbert spaces. Derived from dynamical systems, a simple inertial forward-backward splitting method for solving the problem is presented and analyzed under mild and standard assumptions. Some numerical examples in real-world and comparisons with related works, illustrate the theoretical advantages as well the potential applicability of the proposed scheme. (c) 2022 IMACS.

In this paper, a simple version of the tabu search algorithm is employed to train a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) to search out the optimal parameter structure of HMM for automatic speech recognition. The proposed TS-HMM training provides a mechanism that allows the search process to escape from a local optimum and obtain a near global optimum. Experimental results show that the TS-HMM training has a higher probability of finding the optimal model parameters than traditional algorithms do.
