The Expectation Maximisation (EM) algorithm is widely used to optimise non-convex likelihood functions with latent variables. Many authors modified its simple design to fit more specific situations.

A Simple Approximation Method for the Fisher–Rao Distance between Multivariate Normal Distributions
We present a simple method to approximate the Fisher–Rao distance between multivariate normal distributions based on discretizing curves joining normal distributions and approximating the Fisher–Rao distances between successive nearby normal ...

Information Geometry Approach to Parameter Estimation in Markov Chains [PDF]
We consider the parameter estimation of Markov chain when the unknown transition matrix belongs to an exponential family of transition matrices. Then, we show that the sample mean of the generator of the exponential family is an asymptotically efficient ...

$q$-Exponential Families [PDF]
We develop an analog of the exponential families of Wilf in which the label sets are finite dimensional vector spaces over a finite field rather than finite sets of positive integers. The essential features of exponential families are preserved, including the exponential formula relating the deck enumerator and the hand enumerator.

In this work, the Exponentiated Chen-G family of distributions is studied by generalizing the Chen-G family of distributions through the introduction of an additional shape parameter. The mixture properties of the derived family are studied.

Intrinsic Losses Based on Information Geometry and Their Applications
One main interest of information geometry is to study the properties of statistical models that do not depend on the coordinate systems or model parametrization; thus, it may serve as an analytic tool for intrinsic inference in statistics. In this paper,

Reproductive Exponential Families
Consider a full and steep exponential model $\mathscr{M}$ with model function $a(\theta)b(x)\exp\{\theta \cdot t(x)\}$ and a sample $x_1, \cdots, x_n$ from $\mathscr{M}$. Let $\bar{t} = \{t(x_1) + \cdots + t(x_n)\}/n$ and let $\bar{t} = (\bar{t}_1, \bar{t}_2)$ be a partition of the canonical statistic $\bar{t}$.

Simple Exponential Family PCA [PDF]
Principal component analysis (PCA) is a widely used model for dimensionality reduction. In this paper, we address the problem of determining the intrinsic dimensionality of a general type data population by selecting the number of principal components for a generalized PCA model.
