Bregman and Burbea-rao Divergence for Matrices
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, the Bregman and Burbea-Rao divergences for matrices are investigated. Two mean-value theorems for the divergences induced by C-functions are derived. As application, certain Cauchy type means of the entries of the matrices are constructed. By utilizing three classes of parametrized convex functions, the exponential convexity of the divergences, thought as a function of the parameter, is proved. The monotonicity of the corresponding means of Cauchy type is shown. Power means are also considered.

Penalized Bregman Divergence Estimation via Coordinate Descent
Variable selection via penalized estimation is appealing for dimension reduction. For penalized linear regression, Efron, et al. (2004) introduced the LARS algorithm. Recently, the coordinate descent (CD) algorithm was developed by Friedman, et al. (2007) for penalized linear regression and penalized logistic regression and was shown to gain computational superiority. This paper explores...
متن کاملMetrics Defined by Bregman Divergences †
Bregman divergences are generalizations of the well known Kullback Leibler divergence. They are based on convex functions and have recently received great attention. We present a class of “squared root metrics” based on Bregman divergences. They can be regarded as natural generalization of Euclidean distance. We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for a convex function so that the squar...

, s = 1 The first measure generalizes the well known J-divergence due to Jeffreys [16] and Kullback and Leibler [17]. The second measure gives a unified generalization of JensenShannon divergence due to Sibson [22] and Burbea and Rao [2, 3], and arithmeticgeometric mean divergence due to Taneja [27]. These two measures contain in particular some well known divergences such as: Hellinger’s discr...
متن کاملA generalization of the Jensen divergence: The chord gap divergence
We introduce a novel family of distances, called the chord gap divergences, that generalizes the Jensen divergences (also called the Burbea-Rao distances), and study its properties. It follows a generalization of the celebrated statistical Bhattacharyya distance that is frequently met in applications. We report an iterative concave-convex procedure for computing centroids, and analyze the perfo...
