A mixture of SDB skew- t factor analyzers [PDF]

open access: yesEconometrics and Statistics, 2017
Mixtures of skew-t distributions offer a flexible choice for model-based clustering. A mixture model of this sort can be implemented using a variety of formulations of the skew-t distribution. Herein we develop a mixture of skew-t factor analyzers model for clustering of high-dimensional data using a flexible formulation of the skew-t distribution ...

Unsupervised and Supervised Feature Extraction Methods for Hyperspectral Images Based on Mixtures of Factor Analyzers

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
This paper proposes three feature extraction (FE) methods based on density estimation for hyperspectral images (HSIs). The methods are a mixture of factor analyzers (MFA), deep MFA (DMFA), and supervised MFA (SMFA).

Air pollution monitoring: development of ammonia (NH3) dynamic reference gas mixtures at nanomoles per mole levels to improve the lack of traceability of measurements [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2022
The measurement of ammonia (NH3) in ambient air is a sensitive and priority topic due to its impact on ecosystems. NH3 emissions have continuously increased over the last century in Europe because of intensive livestock practices and the enhanced use of ...

Bayesian Analysis of Mixtures of Factor Analyzers [PDF]

open access: yesNeural Computation, 2001
For Bayesian inference on the mixture of factor analyzers, natural conjugate priors on the parameters are introduced, and then a Gibbs sampler that generates parameter samples following the posterior is constructed. In addition, a deterministic estimation algorithm is derived by taking modes instead of samples from the conditional posteriors used in ...

A mixture of generalized hyperbolic factor analyzers [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Data Analysis and Classification, 2015
Model-based clustering imposes a finite mixture modelling structure on data for clustering. Finite mixture models assume that the population is a convex combination of a finite number of densities, the distribution within each population is a basic assumption of each particular model.

Mixtures of Hidden Truncation Hyperbolic Factor Analyzers [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Classification, 2019
The mixture of factor analyzers model was first introduced over 20 years ago and, in the meantime, has been extended to several non-Gaussian analogues. In general, these analogues account for situations with heavy tailed and/or skewed clusters. An approach is introduced that unifies many of these approaches into one very general model: the mixture of ...

Approximating multivariate posterior distribution functions from Monte Carlo samples for sequential Bayesian inference.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
An important feature of Bayesian statistics is the opportunity to do sequential inference: the posterior distribution obtained after seeing a dataset can be used as prior for a second inference.

Robust Cluster Analysis via Mixture Models

open access: yesAustrian Journal of Statistics, 2016
Finite mixture models are being increasingly used to model the distributions of a wide variety of random phenomena and to cluster data sets. In this paper, we focus on the use of normal mixture models to cluster data sets of continuous multivariate data.
