An equivalence of the EM and ICE algorithm for exponential family
نویسنده
چکیده
In this correspondence, we compare the expectation maximization (EM) algorithm with another iterative approach, namely, the iterative conditional estimation (ICE) algorithm, which was formally introduced in the field of statistical segmentation of images. We show that in case the probability density function (PDF) belongs to the exponential family, the EM algorithm is one particular case of the ICE algorithm.

An EM Algorithm for Estimating the Parameters of the Generalized Exponential Distribution under Unified Hybrid Censored Data
The unified hybrid censoring is a mixture of generalized Type-I and Type-II hybrid censoring schemes. This article presents the statistical inferences on Generalized Exponential Distribution parameters when the data are obtained from the unified hybrid censoring scheme. It is observed that the maximum likelihood estimators can not be derived in closed form. The EM algorithm for computing the ma...
متن کاملA Family of Skew-Slash Distributions and Estimation of its Parameters via an EM Algorithm
Abstract. In this paper, a family of skew-slash distributions is defined and investigated. We define the new family by the scale mixture of a skew-elliptically distributed random variable with the power of a uniform random variable. This family of distributions contains slash-elliptical and skew-slash distributions. We obtain the moments and some distributional properties of the new family of d...
متن کاملOn Bivariate Generalized Exponential-Power Series Class of Distributions
In this paper, we introduce a new class of bivariate distributions by compounding the bivariate generalized exponential and power-series distributions. This new class contains the bivariate generalized exponential-Poisson, bivariate generalized exponential-logarithmic, bivariate generalized exponential-binomial and bivariate generalized exponential-negative binomial distributions as specia...
متن کاملIncremental Learning of Gaussian Mixture Models
Gaussian Mixture Modeling (GMM) is a parametric method for high dimensional density estimation. Incremental learning of GMM is very important in problems such as clustering of streaming data and robot localization in dynamic environments. Traditional GMM estimation algorithms like EM Clustering tend to be computationally very intensive in these scenarios. We present an incremental GMM estimatio...
متن کاملThe Generalized CEM Algorithm
We propose a general approach for estimating the parameters of latent variable probability models to maximize conditional likelihood and discriminant criteria. Unlike joint likelihood, these objectives are better suited for classiication and regression. The approach utilizes and extends the previously introduced CEM framework (Conditional Expectation Maximization), which reformulates EM to hand...
