An Expectation-Maximization algorithm for Learning the Latent Gaussian Model with Gaussian Likelihood
In this note, we derive an expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm for a latent Gaussian model with Gaussian likelihood. This model contains many popular models as a special case, such as factor analysis and linear regression. Our derived EM algorithm is general, and contains almost all the updates required for the special cases. We also describe modification of the algorithm in the presence of...
متن کاملChapter # IMAGE FUSION USING THE EXPECTATION- MAXIMIZATION ALGORITHM AND A GAUSSIAN MIXTURE MODEL
1. INTRODUCTION Image fusion refers the process of combining multiple images of a scene to obtain a single composite image [1-4]. The different images to be fused can come from different sensors of the same basic type or they may come from different types of sensors. The composite image should contain a more useful description of the scene than provided by any of the individual source images. T...
متن کاملA Practical Method for Self-adapting Gaussian Expectation Maximization
Split-and-merge techniques have been demonstrated to be effective in overtaking the convergence problems in classical EM. In this paper we follow a split-and-merge approach and we propose a new EM algorithm that makes use of a on-line variable number of mixture Gaussians components. We introduce a measure of the similarities to decide when to merge components. A set of adaptive thresholds keeps...
متن کاملThe Expectation Maximization Algorithm
This note represents my attempt at explaining the EM algorithm (Hartley, 1958; Dempster et al., 1977; McLachlan and Krishnan, 1997). This is just a slight variation on TomMinka’s tutorial (Minka, 1998), perhaps a little easier (or perhaps not). It includes a graphical example to provide some intuition. 1 Intuitive Explanation of EM EM is an iterative optimizationmethod to estimate some unknown ...
متن کاملVariational expectation-maximization training for Gaussian networks
This paper introduces variational expectation-maximization (VEM) algorithm for training Gaussian networks. Hyperparameters model distributions of parameters characterizing Gaussian mixture densities. The proposed algorithm employs a hierarchical learning strategy for estimating a set of hyperparameters and the number of Gaussian mixture components. A dual EM algorithm is employed as the initial...
