This work deals with a new technique for the estimation of the parameters and number of components in a finite mixture model. The learning procedure is performed by means of a expe...
The Expectation Maximization (EM) algorithm is widely used for learning finite mixture models despite its greedy nature. Most popular model-based clustering techniques might yield...

In simulation modeling and analysis, there are two situations where there is uncertainty about the number of parameters needed to specify a model. The first is in input modeling w...
We propose a new method of classifying documents into categories. We define for each category a finite mixture model based on soft clustering of words. We treat the problem of cla...
