We consider the problem of detecting small and manoeuvring objects with staring array radars. Coherent processing and long-time integration are key to addressing the undesirably low signal-to-noise/background conditions in this scenario and are complicated by the object manoeuvres. We propose a Bayesian solution that builds upon a Bernoulli state space model equipped with the likelihood of the radar data cubes through the radar ambiguity function. Likelihood evaluation in this model corresponds to coherent long-time integration.

Generalized Approximate Message Passing (GAMP) allows for Bayesian inference in linear models with non-identically independently distributed (n.i.i.d.) priors and n.i.i.d. measurements of the linear mixture outputs. It represents an efficient technique for approximate inference, which becomes accurate when both rows and columns of the measurement matrix can be treated as sets of independent vectors and both dimensions become large.

We summarise previous work showing that the basic sigmoid activation function arises as an instance of Bayes’s theorem, and that recurrence follows from the prior. We derive a layer- wise recurrence without the assumptions of previous work, and show that it leads to a standard recurrence with modest modifications to reflect use of log-probabilities. The resulting architecture closely resembles the Li-GRU which is the current state of the art for ASR. Although the contribution is mainly theoretical, we show that it is able to outperform the state of the art on the TIMIT and AMI datasets.

Automatic radar based classification of automotive targets, such as pedestrians and cyclist, poses several challenges due to low inter-class variations among different classes and large intra-class variations. Further, different targets required to track in typical automotive scenario can have completely varying dynamics which gets challenging for tracker using conventional state vectors. Compared to state-of-the-art using independent classification and tracking, in this paper, we propose an integrated tracker and classifier leading to a novel Bayesian framework.

Orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) as an emerging modulation technique in the 5G and beyond era exploits full time-frequency diversity and is robust against doubly-selective channels in high mobility scenarios. In this work, we consider an OTFS modulation based automotive joint radar-communication system and focus on the design of low-complexity parameter estimation algorithm for radar targets.

This paper is concerned with the estimation of unknown drift functions of stochastic differential equations (SDEs) from observations of their sample paths. We propose to formulate this as a non-parametric Gaussian process regression problem and use an Itô-Taylor expansion for approximating the SDE. To address the computational complexity problem of Gaussian process regression, we cast the model in an equivalent state-space representation, such that (non-linear) Kalman filters and smoothers can be used.
