The Dirichlet process can be used as a nonparametric prior for an infinite-dimensional probability mass function on the parameter space of a mixture model. The set of parameters o...
We describe computationally efficient methods for learning mixtures in which each component is a directed acyclic graphical model (mixtures of DAGs or MDAGs). We argue that simple...

The problem of determining the appropriate number of components is important in finite mixture modeling for pattern classification. This paper considers the application of an unsu...
— Within-subject analysis in event-related functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) first relies on (i) a detection step to localize which parts of the brain are activated b...
To track objects in video sequences, many studies have been done to characterize the target with respect to its color distribution. Most often, the Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) is ...
