Statistical guarantees for the EM algorithm: From population to sample-based analysis [PDF]
We develop a general framework for proving rigorous guarantees on the performance of the EM algorithm and a variant known as gradient EM. Our analysis is divided into two parts: a treatment of these algorithms at the population level (in the limit of ...

Spatially multi-scale dynamic factor modeling via sparse estimation
In many spatio-temporal data, their spatial variations have inherent global and local structures. The spatially continuous dynamic factor model (SCDFM) decomposes the spatio-temporal data into a small number of spatial and temporal variations, where the ...

SQUAREM: An R Package for Off-the-Shelf Acceleration of EM, MM and Other EM-Like Monotone Algorithms
We discuss the R package SQUAREM for accelerating iterative algorithms which exhibit slow, monotone convergence. These include the well-known expectation-maximization algorithm, majorize-minimize (MM), and other EM-like algorithms such as expectation ...

Latent Class Probabilistic Latent Feature Analysis of Three-Way Three-Mode Binary Data
The analysis of binary three-way data (i.e., persons who indicate which attributes apply to each of a set of objects) may be of interest in several substantive domains as sensory profiling, marketing research or personality assessment.

Harmony search aided iterative channel estimation, multiuser detection and channel decoding for DS-CDMA [PDF]
A novel Multiuser Detection (MUD) scheme is proposed for DS-CDMA systems employing the so-called Harmony Search (HS) algorithm, which is a novel meta-heuristic optimisation method.

SACOC: A spectral-based ACO clustering algorithm [PDF]
The application of ACO-based algorithms in data mining is growing over the last few years and several supervised and unsupervised learning algorithms have been developed using this bio-inspired approach. Most recent works concerning unsupervised learning

Performance Enhancement of Wi-Fi Fingerprinting-Based IPS by Accurate Parameter Estimation of Censored and Dropped Data [PDF]
In complex indoor environments, the censoring, dropping, and multi-component problems may present in the observable data. This is due to the attenuation of signals, the unexpected operation of equipments, and the changing surrounding environment ...
