—A Bayesian-based methodology is presented which automatically penalizes overcomplex models being fitted to unknown data. We show that, with a Gaussian mixture model, the approac...

The problem of determining the appropriate number of components is important in finite mixture modeling for pattern classification. This paper considers the application of an unsu...
, Yunde Jia Model structure selection is currently an open problem in modeling data via Gaussian Mixture Models (GMM). This paper proposes a discriminative method to select GMM st...
Variational methods for model comparison have become popular in the neural computing/machine learning literature. In this paper we explore their application to the Bayesian analys...
This paper 1 proposes a technique for simplifying a given Gaussian mixture model, i.e. reformulating the density in a more parcimonious manner, if possible (less Gaussian componen...
