New Bayesian approach helps you solve tough problems in signal processing with ease. Signal processing is based on this fundamental conceptthe extraction of critical information from noisy, uncertain data. Most techniques rely on underlying Gaussian assumptions for a solution, but what happens when these assumptions are erroneous? Bayesian techniques circumvent this limitation by offering a completely different approach that can easily incorporate...
