The asymptotic distribution of estimates that are based on a sub-optimal search for the maximum of the log-likelihood function is considered. In particular, estimation schemes that...
The mixmod (mixture modeling) program fits mixture models to a given data set for the purposes of density estimation, clustering or discriminant analysis. A large variety of algor...
: Kriging-based exploration strategies often rely on a single Ordinary Kriging model which parametric covariance kernel is selected a priori or on the basis of an initial data set....
The Hierarchical Mixture of Experts (HME) is a well-known tree-structured model for regression and classification, based on soft probabilistic splits of the input space. In its o...
The desirable asymptotic optimality properties of the maximum likelihood (ML) estimator make it an attractive solution for performing independent component analysis (ICA) as well....
