The mean-shift algorithm, based on ideas proposed by Fukunaga and Hostetler (1975), is a hill-climbing algorithm on the density defined by a finite mixture or a kernel density e...
The Gaussian mixture model is a powerful statistical tool in data modeling and analysis. Generally, the EM algorithm is utilized to learn the parameters of the Gaussian mixture. Ho...
The class of finite mixtures of multivariate Bernoulli distributions is known to be nonidentifiable, i.e., different values of the mixture parameters can correspond to exactly the...
Abstract. It has been recently demonstrated that the classical EM algorithm for learning Gaussian mixture models can be successfully implemented in a decentralized manner by resort...
