Information geometry provides a geometric approach to families of statistical models. The key geometric structures are the Fisher quadratic form and the Amari-Chentsov tensor. In statistics, the notion of sufficient statistic expresses the criterion for passing from one model to another without loss of information. This leads to the question how the geometric structures behave under such suffic...
متن کاملInformation geometry of Bayesian statistics
A survey of geometry of Bayesian statistics is given. From the viewpoint of differential geometry, a prior distribution in Bayesian statistics is regarded as a volume element on a statistical model. In this paper, properties of Bayesian estimators are studied by applying equiaffine structures of statistical manifolds. In addition, geometry of anomalous statistics is also studied. Deformed expec...
متن کاملComputational Information Geometry in Statistics: Mixture Modelling
This paper applies the tools of computation information geometry [3] – in particular, high dimensional extended multinomial families as proxies for the ‘space of all distributions’ – in the inferentially demanding area of statistical mixture modelling. A range of resultant benefits are noted.
متن کاملComputational Information Geometry in Statistics: Foundations
This paper lays the foundations for a new framework for numerically and computationally applying information geometric methods to statistical modelling.
متن کاملFeatures as Sufficient Statistics
An image is often represented by a set of detected features. We get an enormous compression by representing images in this way. Furthermore, we get a representation which is little affected by small amounts of noise in the image. However, features are typically chosen in an ad hoc manner. \Ve show how a good set of features can be obtained using sufficient statistics. The idea of sparse data re...
