Supplemental Information: Streaming Variational Inference for Bayesian Nonparametric Mixture Models
where the inequality follows by Jensen’s inequality [1]. The approximation is tight when q̂(z1:n) and q̂(θ\k) approach Dirac measures. Eq. (6) is that of the standard mean field update for q̂(θk) [2]. Since the q(θk) distributions are unknown for all k, we could perform coordinate ascent and cycle through these updates for each of the θk given the other θ\k and q̂(z1:n). Conveniently, since the q̂(z...
متن کاملStreaming Variational Inference for Bayesian Nonparametric Mixture Models
In theory, Bayesian nonparametric (BNP) models are well suited to streaming data scenarios due to their ability to adapt model complexity with the observed data. Unfortunately, such benefits have not been fully realized in practice; existing inference algorithms are either not applicable to streaming applications or not extensible to BNP models. For the special case of Dirichlet processes, stre...
متن کاملCure Fraction Models Using Mixture and Non-mixture Models
We introduce the Weibull distributions in presence of cure fraction, censored data and covariates. Twomodels are explored in this paper: mixture and non-mixture models. Inferences for the proposed models are obtained under the Bayesian approach, using standard MCMC (Markov Chain Monte Carlo) methods. An illustration of the proposed methodology is given considering a lifetime data set.
متن کاملNonparametric Mixture of Regression Models.
Motivated by an analysis of US house price index data, we propose nonparametric finite mixture of regression models. We study the identifiability issue of the proposed models, and develop an estimation procedure by employing kernel regression. We further systematically study the sampling properties of the proposed estimators, and establish their asymptotic normality. A modified EM algorithm is ...
متن کاملNonparametric Estimation of Finite-mixture Models
The aim of this paper is to provide simple nonparametric methods to estimate finite-mixture models from data with repeated measurements. Three measurements suffice for the mixtures to be fully identified and so our approach can be used even with very short panel data. We provide distribution theory for estimators of the number of mixture components, the mixing proportions, as well as of the mix...
