Title: An Efficient Method for Extracting Sinusoids From Noisy Data

Abstract: This paper proposes a novel algorithm that combines a global nonlinear optimization routine based on the Bayesian Inference Reversible Jump Markov Chain Monte Carlo (BI-RJMCMC) method with a range of proposal distributions and simulated annealing (SA). This approach enables a global exploration of the parameters and number of parameters, circumventing the issue of local minima and facilitating a convergence to the modes of the full posterior distribution through an efficient process. The estimation of the parameters can be deduced from these probabilities along with the corresponding variances. Additionally, in instances where the variance of the noise is not known, an estimate of the noise variance can be obtained. A comparison of the results with those obtained using alternative methods, including Bretthorst, Dou, and Hodgson's methods, has been undertaken. The approach outlined in this paper demonstrates several advantages.

Bio: Dursun Ustundag was graduated from the Technical university of Istanbul as a mathematical engineering. During his undergraduate studies, he was supported financially by Turkish Scientific research Council (TUBITAK). After he was graduated from the university, he got a grant from Turkish Ministry of Education to do PhD study in mathematics in Great Britain. He had stayed there since he was awarded a Ph.D. degree from the University of Birmingham, where he investigated image reconstruction methods based on maximum entropy principle and applied them to data taken from X-ray telescopes and positron emission camera. He has been in Marmara University as a member of staff since 1994 in the department of Mathematics as a member of the applied mathematics group.

Call for Sessions

Call for Sessions, Workshops, Minisymposia We encourage you to participate in our conference with a Session, Symposium, or Workshop. There are several benefits for the organizers:
1. A Honorarium for the Special Issue organizer (i.e. Guest Editor) provided that his Special Issue will collect a minimum of 5 registered papers He can use this Honorarium to travel to the conference! 2. Successful Special Session organizers will be included in the Steering Committee of the conference of the next year. 3. Successful Special Session organizers will receive a volume in Hard Copy of the Proceedings of our previous conferences. 4. Successful Special Session organizers will receive a Certificate for the organization of their Special Session by the General Chairman. 5. Successful Session organizers will be elevated to Plenary Speakers for our conference of the necxt year. 6. Their sessions and their names will appear on the web. If the authors have already uploaded the same papers independently via the web, then, these papers cannot be considered for your Special Session, Workshop, Minisymposium.
