Detection-basedBayesianmonitoring:P(world|f(signal))∝ Pφ(f(signal)|world)Pθ(world)where f(signal)=setofalldetections
Signal-basedBayesianmonitoring:P(world|signal)∝ Pφ(signal|world)Pθ(world)

SIG-VISA uses the framework of Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) tosample from the posterior distribution over event hypotheses conditionedon observed signals. Move types include:
• Templateparametermovesmodifytheshapeparametersdescribingaenvelopetemplate.
