Consensus Based Distributed Sparse Bayesian Learning By Fast Marginal Likelihood Maximization

For swarm systems, distributed processing is of paramount importance, and Bayesian methods are preferred for their robustness. Existing distributed sparse Bayesian learn- ing (SBL) methods rely on the automatic relevance deter- mination (ARD), which involves a computationally complex reweighted l1-norm optimization, or they use loopy belief...

Distributed Splitting-Over-Features Sparse Bayesian Learning with Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers

In processing spatially distributed data, multi-agent robotic platforms equipped with sensors and computing capabilities are gaining interest for applications in inhospitable environments. In this work an algorithm for a distributed realization of sparse bayesian learning (SBL) is discussed for learning a static spatial process with the...
