Model-Based Clustering, Discriminant Analysis, and Density Estimation
Cluster analysis is the automated search for groups of related observations in a dataset. Most clustering done in practice is based largely on heuristic but intuitively reasonab...
Lattice-based optimization of sequence classification criteria for neural-network acoustic modeling
Acoustic models used in hidden Markov model/neural-network (HMM/NN) speech recognition systems are usually trained with a frame-based cross-entropy error criterion. In contrast,...
Stability-Based Validation of Clustering Solutions
Data clustering describes a set of frequently employed techniques in exploratory data analysis to extract “natural” group structure in data. Such groupings need to be validated ...
Detecting Features in Spatial Point Processes with Clutter via Model-Based Clustering
Abstract We consider the problem of detecting features, such as minefields or seismic faults, in spatial point processes when there is substantial clutter. We use model-based cl...
Deciding on the Number of Classes in Latent Class Analysis and Growth Mixture Modeling: A Monte Carlo Simulation Study
Abstract Mixture modeling is a widely applied data analysis technique used to identify unobserved heterogeneity in a population. Despite mixture models' usefulness in practice, ...
