A permutation-augmented sampler for DP mixture models
We introduce a new inference algorithm for Dirichlet process mixture models. While Gibbs sampling and variational methods focus on local moves, the new algorithm makes more global...

Multi-agent Model of Biological Swarming
An agent-based approach is used to explain the formation of vortex swarms in biological systems. The dynamics of the multiagent system is described by 3N coupled equations, modeli...
