BART-based inference for Poisson processes
The effectiveness of Bayesian Additive Regression Trees (BART) has been demonstrated in a variety of contexts including non-parametric regression and classification. A BART scheme for estimating the intensity of inhomogeneous Poisson processes is introduced. Poisson intensity estimation is a vital task in various applications including medical imaging, astrophysics and network traffic analysis. The new approach enables full posterior inference of the intensity in a non-parametric regression setting. The performance of the novel scheme is demonstrated through simulation studies on synthetic and real datasets up to five dimensions, and the new scheme is compared with alternative approaches.

Deep Neyman-Scott Processes
A Neyman-Scott process is a special case of a Cox process. The latent and observable stochastic processes are both Poisson processes. We consider a deep Neyman-Scott process in this paper, for which the building componen…
