Soft vector quantization and the EM algorithm
The relation between hard c-means (HCM), fuzzy c-means (FCM), fuzzy learning vector quantization (FLVQ), soft competition scheme (SCS) of Yair et al. (1992) and probabilistic Gaus...

Factorial Learning and the EM Algorithm
Many real world learning problems are best characterized by an interaction of multiple independent causes or factors. Discovering such causal structure from the data is the focus ...

Hyperparameter learning in probabilistic prototype-based models
We present two approaches to extend Robust Soft Learning Vector Quantization (RSLVQ). This algorithm for nearest prototype classification is derived from an explicit cost functio...

Prototype learning with margin-based conditional log-likelihood loss
The classification performance of nearest prototype classifiers largely relies on the prototype learning algorithms, such as the learning vector quantization (LVQ) and the minimum...
