A quasi-Newton acceleration for high-dimensional optimization algorithms
Abstract In many statistical problems, maximum likelihood estimation by an EM or MM algorithm suffers from excruciatingly slow convergence. This tendency limits the application of ...

Near optimal iterative channel estimation for KSP-OFDM
In this correspondence, we propose an iterative "turbo" channel estimation algorithm for known symbol padding (KSP) orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM), whe...

New EM derived from Kullback-Leibler divergence
We introduce a new EM framework in which it is possible not only to optimize the model parameters but also the number of model components. A key feature of our approach is that we...

Extended EM for Planar Approximation of 3D Data
– The paper deals with fitting of planar patches to 3D laser range data obtained by a mobile robot. The number and the initial position of the patches are unknown, hence their es...
