Motivated by the poor performance (linear complexity) of the EM algorithm in clustering large data sets, and inspired by the successful accelerated versions of related algorithms l...
Abstract. We present iCluster, a fast and efficient algorithm that clusters a set of images while co-registering them using a parameterized, nonlinear transformation model. The out...
Model-based clustering exploits finite mixture models for detecting group in a data set. It provides a sound statistical framework which can address some important issues, such as...
In previous work on "transformed mixtures of Gaussians" and "transformed hidden Markov models", we showed how the EM algorithm in a discrete latent variable mo...
In this work, a novel probability distribution is proposed to model sparse directional data. The Directional Laplacian Distribution (DLD) is a hybrid between the linear Laplacian d...
