On-Line Estimation with the Multivariate Gaussian Distribution
We consider on-line density estimation with the multivariate Gaussian distribution. In each of a sequence of trials, the learner must posit a mean µ and covariance Σ; the learner...

Unified eigen analysis on multivariate Gaussian based estimation of distribution algorithms
Multivariate Gaussian models are widely adopted in continuous Estimation of Distribution Algorithms (EDAs), and covariance matrix plays the essential role in guiding the evolution...

Distributed Covariance Estimation in Gaussian Graphical Models
—We consider distributed estimation of the inverse covariance matrix in Gaussian graphical models. These models factorize the multivariate distribution and allow for efficient d...

Dirac mixture approximation of multivariate Gaussian densities
— For the optimal approximation of multivariate Gaussian densities by means of Dirac mixtures, i.e., by means of a sum of weighted Dirac distributions on a continuous domain, a n...

A Novel Parameter Estimation Algorithm for the Multivariate t-Distribution and Its Application to Computer
Abstract. We present a novel algorithm for approximating the parameters of a multivariate t-distribution. At the expense of a slightly decreased accuracy in the estimates, the prop...
