Mini-batch learning of exponential family finite mixture models [PDF]

open access: yesStatistics and computing, 2019
Mini-batch algorithms have become increasingly popular due to the requirement for solving optimization problems, based on large-scale data sets. Using an existing online expectation–maximization (EM) algorithm framework, we demonstrate how mini-batch (MB)

Extended Divergence on a Foliation by Deformed Probability Simplexes

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
This study considers a new decomposition of an extended divergence on a foliation by deformed probability simplexes from the information geometry perspective.

Exponential Family Graph Embeddings [PDF]

open access: yesAAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 2019
Representing networks in a low dimensional latent space is a crucial task with many interesting applications in graph learning problems, such as link prediction and node classification.

On a Variational Definition for the Jensen-Shannon Symmetrization of Distances Based on the Information Radius

open access: yesEntropy, 2021
We generalize the Jensen-Shannon divergence and the Jensen-Shannon diversity index by considering a variational definition with respect to a generic mean, thereby extending the notion of Sibson’s information radius.

Exponential-Family Models of Random Graphs: Inference in Finite, Super and Infinite Population Scenarios [PDF]

open access: yesStatistical Science, 2017
Exponential-family Random Graph Models (ERGMs) constitute a large statistical framework for modeling sparse and dense random graphs, short- and long-tailed degree distributions, covariates, and a wide range of complex dependencies. Special cases of ERGMs

The modified beta transmuted family of distributions with applications using the exponential distribution.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
In this work, a new family of distributions, which extends the Beta transmuted family, was obtained, called the Modified Beta Transmuted Family of distribution.

A Simple Approximation Method for the Fisher–Rao Distance between Multivariate Normal Distributions

open access: yesEntropy, 2023
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 ...

Deterministic Approximate EM Algorithm; Application to the Riemann Approximation EM and the Tempered EM

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2022
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.

Information Geometry Approach to Parameter Estimation in Markov Chains [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
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]

open access: yesThe Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2004
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.
