Optimal Nonlinear Estimation in Statistical Manifolds with Application to Sensor Network Localization
Information geometry enables a deeper understanding of the methods of statistical inference. In this paper, the problem of nonlinear parameter estimation is considered from a geometric viewpoint using a natural gradient descent on statistical manifolds. It is demonstrated that the nonlinear estimati...
