Linear Independence of Cluster Monomials for Skew-symmetric Cluster Algebras
Fomin-Zelevinsky conjectured that in any cluster algebra, the cluster monomials are linearly independent and that the exchange graph is independent of the choice of coefficients. We confirm these conjectures for all skew-symmetric cluster algebras.
متن کاملAdaptive Sparseness Using Jeffreys Prior
In this paper we introduce a new sparseness inducing prior which does not involve any (hyper)parameters that need to be adjusted or estimated. Although other applications are possible, we focus here on supervised learning problems: regression and classification. Experiments with several publicly available benchmark data sets show that the proposed approach yields state-of-the-art performance. I...
متن کاملEM Algorithm for Symmetric Causal Independence Models
Causal independence modelling is a well-known method both for reducing the size of probability tables and for explaining the underlying mechanisms in Bayesian networks. In this paper, we present the EM algorithm to learn the parameters in causal independence models based on the symmetric Boolean function. The developed algorithm enables us to assess the practical usefulness of the symmetric cau...
متن کاملSymmetric Causal Independence Models for Classification
Causal independence modelling is a well-known method both for reducing the size of probability tables and for explaining the underlying mechanisms in Bayesian networks. In this paper, we propose an application of an extended class of causal independence models, causal independence models based on the symmetric Boolean function, for classification. We present an EM algorithm to learn the paramet...
متن کاملOn the singularity of multivariate skew-symmetric models
In recent years, the skew-normal models introduced by Azzalini (1985)—and their multivariate generalizations from Azzalini and Dalla Valle (1996)—have enjoyed an amazing success, although an important literature has reported that they exhibit, in the vicinity of symmetry, singular Fisher information matrices and stationary points in the profile log-likelihood function for skewness, with the usu...
