Bayesian classification and regression with high order interactions is largely infeasible because Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) would need to be applied with a great many parameters, whose number increases rapidly with the order. In this…

Formulating a statistical inverse problem as one of inference in a Bayesian model has great appeal, notably for what this brings in terms of coherence, the interpretability of regularisation penalties, the integration of all uncertainties,…

Purpose: Tracer-kinetic models can be used for the quantitative assessment of contrast-enhanced MRI data. However, the model-fitting can produce unreliable results due to the limited data acquired and the high noise levels. Such problems…
