Nonparametric estimation of a latent variable model

In this paper a nonparametric latent variable model is estimated without specifying the underlying distributions. The main idea is to estimate in a first step a common factor analysis model under the assumption that each manifest variable is influenced by at most one of the latent variables. In a second step nonparametric regression is used to analyze the relation between the latent variables. ...

Nonparametric Estimation of Multi-View Latent Variable Models

Spectral methods have greatly advanced the estimation of latent variable models, generating a sequence of novel and efficient algorithms with strong theoretical guarantees. However, current spectral algorithms are largely restricted to mixtures of discrete or Gaussian distributions. In this paper, we propose a kernel method for learning multi-view latent variable models, allowing each mixture c...

Estimation of Dynamic Latent Variable Models Using Simulated Nonparametric Moments

Given a model that can be simulated, conditional moments at a trial parameter value can be calculated with high accuracy by applying kernel smoothing methods to a long simulation. With such conditional moments in hand, standard method of moments techniques can be used to estimate the parameter. Because conditional moments are calculated using kernel smoothing rather than simple averaging, it is...

A nonparametric variable clustering model

Factor analysis models effectively summarise the covariance structure of high dimensional data, but the solutions are typically hard to interpret. This motivates attempting to find a disjoint partition, i.e. a simple clustering, of observed variables into highly correlated subsets. We introduce a Bayesian non-parametric approach to this problem, and demonstrate advantages over heuristic methods...

A Latent-Variable Lattice Model

Markov random field (MRF) learning is intractable, and the approximation algorithms are computationally expensive. Since only a small subset of MRF is used frequently in computer vision, we characterize this subset with three concepts: (1) Lattice, (2) Homogeneity, and (3) Inertia; and design a non-markov high-bias low-variance model as an alternative to this subclass of MRF. Our goal is robust...
