—In Dirichlet process (DP) mixture models, the number of components is implicitly determined by the sampling parameters of Dirichlet process. However, this kind of models usually...
: The traditional latent class analysis (LCA) uses a mixture model with binary responses on each subject that are independent conditional on cluster membership. However, in many pr...
One essential issue of document clustering is to estimate the appropriate number of clusters for a document collection to which documents should be partitioned. In this paper, we ...
We study the interaction between global and local techniques in data mining. Specifically, we study the collections of frequent sets in clusters produced by a probabilistic clust...
