Quasi-Optimal Convergence Rate for an Adaptive Finite Element Method
We analyze the simplest and most standard adaptive finite element method (AFEM), with any polynomial degree, for general second order linear, symmetric elliptic operators. As is customary in practice, the AFEM marks exclusively according to the error estimator and performs a minimal element refinement without the interior node property. We prove that the AFEM is a contraction, for the sum of th...
متن کاملMixture Models and Convergence Clubs
In this paper we argue that modelling the cross-country distribution of per capita income as a mixture distribution provides a natural framework for the detection of convergence clubs. The framework yields tests for the number of component distributions that are likely to have more power than “bump hunting” tests and includes a natural method of assessing the cross-component immobility necessar...
متن کاملGeodesic Finite Mixture Models
The use of Riemannian manifolds and their statistics has recently gained popularity in a wide range of applications involving non-linear data modeling. For instance, they have been used to model shape changes in the brain [1] and human motion [3]. In this work we tackle the problem of approximating the Probability Density Function (PDF) of a potentially large dataset that lies on a known Rieman...
متن کاملCompetitive EM algorithm for finite mixture models
In this paper, we present a novel competitive EM (CEM) algorithm for "nite mixture models to overcome the two main drawbacks of the EM algorithm: often getting trapped at local maxima and sometimes converging to the boundary of the parameter space. The proposed algorithm is capable of automatically choosing the clustering number and selecting the “split” or “merge” operations e7ciently based on...
متن کاملFinite mixture models for exponential repeated data
The analysis of finite mixture models for exponential repeated data is considered. The mixture components correspond to different possible states of the statistical units. Dependency and variability of repeated data are taken into account through random effects. For each component, an exponential mixed model is thus defined. When considering parameter estimation in this mixture of exponential m...
