Estimating parameters of factor analysis model maximum likelihood method)) by using EM algorithm with application [PDF]
Expectation maximization algorithm (EM) is used to create estimator with the same qualities of maximum likelihood Estimator taking into consideration the existence of two types of data, Data viewing (observed data) and hidden data (missing data), in this

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 ...

Adjusted Viterbi training for hidden Markov models [PDF]
To estimate the emission parameters in hidden Markov models one commonly uses the EM algorithm or its variation. Our primary motivation, however, is the Philips speech recognition system wherein the EM algorithm is replaced by the Viterbi training ...

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 ...

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.

On the Estimation of Nonrandom Signal Coefficients from Jittered Samples [PDF]
This paper examines the problem of estimating the parameters of a bandlimited signal from samples corrupted by random jitter (timing noise) and additive iid Gaussian noise, where the signal lies in the span of a finite basis.

An EM algorithm for dynamic SPECT
In this paper we present two variants of the EM algorithm for dynamic SPECT imaging. A version based on compartmental modeling which fits a sum of exponentials and a more general approach allowing for arbitrary decaying activities. The underlying probabilistic models are discussed and the incomplete and complete data spaces are shown to be physically ...

Efficient training algorithms for HMMs using incremental estimation [PDF]
Typically, parameter estimation for a hidden Markov model (HMM) is performed using an expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm with the maximum-likelihood (ML) criterion. The EM algorithm is an iterative scheme that is well-defined and numerically stable,
