Anomaly Detection via Feature-Aided Tracking and Hidden Markov Models

TL;DR: The capabilities of hidden Markov models (HMMs), combined with feature-aided tracking, for the detection of asymmetric threats are illustrated and a transaction-based probabilistic model is proposed to combine hiddenMarkov models and feature- aided tracking.

Uncovering spatial topology represented by rat hippocampal population neuronal codes

TL;DR: This work attempts to uncover the hidden “spatial topology” represented by the hippocampal population codes by developing a hidden Markov model (HMM) and a variational Bayesian inference algorithm to achieve this computational goal, and applies the analysis to extensive simulation and experimental data.

Estimation of infection and recovery rates for highly polymorphic parasites when detectability is imperfect, using hidden Markov models.

TL;DR: This analysis confirmed that the duration of infections with parasites belonging to the MSP-2 FC27 allelic family increased with age, and was confirmed to be conditionally independent given the hidden process, that is, the underlying true presence of the parasite.

Hidden Markov Model Modeling of SSH Brute-Force Attacks

TL;DR: This paper proposes a flow time series model of SSH brute-force attacks based on Hidden Markov Models and shows that the model successfully emulates an attacker behavior, generating meaningful flow timeseries.

An inequality with applications to statistical estimation for probabilistic functions of Markov processes and to a model for ecology

TL;DR: In this paper, a polynomial with nonnegative coefficients homogeneous of degree d in its variables is shown to be polynomially homogeneous unless 3(3(x))>P(x), where 3(x)=x.

The Gamma Function

TL;DR: The Gamma function as discussed by the authors is a generalized factorial function that can be used to estimate the probability distribution of a probability distribution, and it has been used in many applications, e.g., as part of probability distributions.
