  Entropic risk minimization for nonparametric estimation of mixing distributions
Watanabe K., Ikeda S. Machine Learning 99(1): 119-136, 2015.  Type: Article

The paper introduces a new method for nonparametric estimation of mixing distributions, which is a generalization of the maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) of Lindsay [1,2]. The method aims at minimizing a function, named entropic ris...

  Stochastic complexities of general mixture models in variational Bayesian learning
Watanabe K., Watanabe S. Neural Networks 20(2): 210-219, 2007.  Type: Article

In real-world problems, the probability distribution of a given data set usually has multiple modes. The probability distribution can be estimated as a mixture of single-mode distributions. A powerful method for estimating the mixture ...
