Probabilistic topic models have become popular as methods for dimensionality reduction in collections of text documents or images. These models are usually treated as generative m...
Abstract. In this paper we consider latent variable models and introduce a new U-likelihood concept for estimating the distribution over hidden variables. One can derive an estimat...

The expectation maximization (EM) algorithm is a widely used maximum likelihood estimation procedure for statistical models when the values of some of the variables in the model a...
This paper presents an adaptive structure self-organizing finite mixture network for quantification of magnetic resonance (MR) brain image sequences. We present justification fo...
