Bayesian autoregressive spectral estimation
Autoregressive (AR) time series models are widely used in parametric spectral estimation (SE), where the power spectral density (PSD) of the time series is approximated by that of the \emph{best-fit} AR model, which is available in closed form. Since AR parameters are usually found via maximum-likelihood, least squares or the method of moments, AR-based SE fails to account for the uncertainty of the approximate PSD, and thus only yields point estimates. We propose to handle the uncertainty related to the AR approximation by finding the full posterior distribution of the AR parameters to then propagate this uncertainty to the PSD approximation by \emph{integrating out the AR parameters}; we implement this concept by assuming two different priors over the model noise. Through practical experiments, we show that the proposed Bayesian autoregressive spectral estimation (BASE) provides point estimates that follow closely those of standard autoregressive spectral estimation (ASE), while also providing error bars. BASE is validated against ASE and the Periodogram on both synthetic and real-world signals.

Separated-Spectral-Distribution Estimation Based on Bayesian Inference with Single RGB Camera
In this paper, we propose a novel method for separately estimating spectral distributions from images captured by a typical RGB camera. The proposed method allows us to separately estimate a spectral distribution of illu…

We address the problem to estimate a Kronecker graphical model corresponding to an autoregressive Gaussian stochastic process. The latter is completely described by the power spectral density function whose inverse has s…
Online Bayesian system identification in multivariate autoregressive models via message passing
We propose a recursive Bayesian estimation procedure for multivariate autoregressive models with exogenous inputs based on message passing in a factor graph. Unlike recursive least-squares, our method produces full poste…
Quasi-Bayesian Nonparametric Density Estimation via Autoregressive Predictive Updates
Bayesian methods are a popular choice for statistical inference in small-data regimes due to the regularization effect induced by the prior. In the context of density estimation, the standard nonparametric Bayesian appro…

Spectral deconvolution is essential for extracting peak structures that encode material properties and chemical structures, but conventional automated methods often fail when spectra contain high-intensity noise or unkno…
