We consider the estimation of an n-dimensional vector s from the noisy element-wise measurements of $\mathbf{s}\mathbf{s}^T$, a generic problem that arises in statistics and machine learning. We study a mismatched Bayesian inference…
Mean squared error (MSE) is one of the most widely used metrics to expression differences between multi-dimensional entities, including images. However, MSE is not locally sensitive as it does not take into account the spatial arrangement…

Compressed sensing is a signal processing technique in which data is acquired directly in a compressed form. There are two modeling approaches that can be considered: the worst-case (Hamming) approach and a statistical mechanism, in which…
The matched filter (MF) represents one of the main tools to detect signals from known sources embedded in the noise. In the Gaussian case the noise is assumed to be the realization of a Gaussian random field (GRF). The most important…
Many datasets are obtained as a resolution trade-off between two adversarial dimensions; for example between the frequency and the temporal resolutions for the spectrogram of an audio signal, and between the number of wavelengths and the…
We consider two areas of research that have been developing in parallel over the last decade: blind source separation (BSS) and electromagnetic source estimation (ESE). BSS deals with the recovery of source signals when only mixtures of…
