A Singular Woodbury and Pseudo-Determinant Matrix Identities and Application to Gaussian Process Regression

Siavash Ameli, Shawn C. Shadden

We study a matrix that arises from a singular form of the Woodbury matrix identity. We present generalized inverse and pseudo-determinant identities for this matrix, which have dir…

A transport method for restoring incomplete ocean current measurements

Siavash Ameli, Shawn C. Shadden

Remote sensing of oceanographic data often yields incomplete coverage of the measurement domain. This can limit interpretability of the data and identification of coherent features…
