Maximum Entropy Distribution Estimation with Generalized Regularization
Abstract. We present a unified and complete account of maximum entropy distribution estimation subject to constraints represented by convex potential functions or, alternatively, b...

Estimating divergence functionals and the likelihood ratio by penalized convex risk minimization
We develop and analyze an algorithm for nonparametric estimation of divergence functionals and the density ratio of two probability distributions. Our method is based on a variati...

Estimating divergence functionals and the likelihood ratio by convex risk minimization
We develop and analyze M-estimation methods for divergence functionals and the likelihood ratios of two probability distributions. Our method is based on a non-asymptotic variatio...

Message-Passing Algorithms for MAP Estimation Using DC Programming
We address the problem of finding the most likely assignment or MAP estimation in a Markov random field. We analyze the linear programming formulation of MAP through the lens of...
