Population pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic mixture models via maximum a posteriori estimation
Pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic phenotypes are identified using nonlinear random effects models with finite mixture structures. A maximum a posteriori probability estimation approach is presented using an EM algorithm with importance sampling. Parameters for the conjugate prior densities can be based on prior studies or set to represent vague knowledge about the model parameters. A detailed sim...
متن کاملMaximum a Posteriori Estimation of Coupled Hidden Markov Models
Coupled Hidden Markov Models (CHMM) are a tool which model interactions between variables in state space rather than observation space. Thus they may reveal coupling in cases where classical tools such as correlation fail. In this paper we derive the maximum a posteriori equations for the Expectation Maximization algorithm. The use of the models is demonstrated on simulated data, as well as in ...
متن کاملMaximum Lq-Likelihood Estimation via the Expectation Maximization Algorithm: A Robust Estimation of Mixture Models
We introduce a maximum Lq-likelihood estimation (MLqE) of mixture models using our proposed expectation maximization (EM) algorithm, namely the EM algorithm with Lq-likelihood (EM-Lq). Properties of the MLqE obtained from the proposed EMLq are studied through simulated mixture model data. Compared with the maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) which is obtained from the EM algorithm, the MLqE pro...
متن کاملMaximum a posteriori estimation for multivariate Gaussian mixture observations of Markov chains
In this paper a framework for maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimation of hidden Markov models (HMM) is presented. Three key issues of MAP estimation, namely the choice of prior distribution family, the specification of the parameters of prior densities and the evaluation of the MAP estimates, are addressed. Using HMMs with Gaussian mixture state observation densities as an example, it is assumed ...
متن کاملMaximum a posteriori probability tree models
The context-tree weighting method (Willems, Shtarkov, and Tjalkens [1995]) can be used to compress sequences generated by tree sources. Its redundancy behavior is optimal in the sense that Rissanen’s lower bound [1984] is achieved. Here we study some questions related to the context-tree weighting method. First we stress again that the a priori distribution over all tree models that is mainly c...
