Presentation of the exponential families, of the mixtures of such distributions and how to learn it. We then present algorithms to simplify mixture model, using Kullback-Leibler di...
Abstract. This paper studies a Bayesian framework for density modeling with mixture of exponential family distributions. Variational Bayesian Dirichlet-Multinomial allocation (VBDM...

Markov decision processes (MDPs) with discrete and continuous state and action components can be solved efficiently by hybrid approximate linear programming (HALP). The main idea ...
Bayesian principal component analysis (BPCA), a probabilistic reformulation of PCA with Bayesian model selection, is a systematic approach to determining the number of essential p...
Jensen's inequality is a powerful mathematical tool and one of the workhorses in statistical learning. Its applications therein include the EM algorithm, Bayesian estimation ...
