Maximum Conditional Likelihood
We present the CEM (Conditional Expectation Maximization) algorithm as an extension of the EM (Expectation Maximization) algorithm to conditional density estimation under missing data. A bounding and maximization process is given to speciically optimize conditional likelihood instead of the usual joint likelihood. We apply the method to conditioned mixture models and use bounding techniques to ...
متن کاملBeta-convergence and sigma-convergence in corporate governance in Europe
Article history: This paper tests for beta-convergence and sigma-convergence in the corporate governancemodels, using a samAccepted 12 July 2012 ple of corporate governance ratings for 198 European corporations listed on the FTSE Eurofirst 300 index. A piecewise linear regression is deployed to select amodel and the Poisson pseudo-maximum likelihood estimator JEL classification: is also applied...
متن کاملA Maximum - Likelihood Approach
This paper presents a novel framework, based on maximum likelihood, for training models to recognise simple spatial-motion events, such as those described by the verbs pick up, put down, push, pull, drop, and throw, and classifying novel observations into previously trained classes. The model that we employ does not presuppose prior recognition or tracking of 3D object pose, shape, or identity....
متن کاملMaximum Likelihood Learning of Conditional MTE Distributions
We describe a procedure for inducing conditional densities within the mixtures of truncated exponentials (MTE) framework. We analyse possible conditional MTE specifications and propose a model selection scheme, based on the BIC score, for partitioning the domain of the conditioning variables. Finally, experimental results demonstrate the applicability of the learning procedure as well as the ex...
