A study of online and blockwise updating of the EM algorithm for Gaussian mixtures (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Einbeck, J., & Bonetti, D. (2014). A study of online and blockwise updating of the EM algorithm for Gaussian mixtures. In T. Kneib, F. Sobotka, J. Fahrenholz, & H. Irmer (Eds.), 29th International Workshop on Statistical Modelling, 14-18 July 2014, Göttingen, Germany ; proceedings (35-38)

A variant of the EM algorithm for the estimation of multivariate Gaussian mixtures, which allows for online as well as blockwise updating of sequentially obtained parameter estimates, is investigated. Several dierent update schemes are considered and... Read More about A study of online and blockwise updating of the EM algorithm for Gaussian mixtures.

Bayesian shape modelling of cross-sectional geological data (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Tsiftsi, T., Jermyn, I., & Einbeck, J. (2014). Bayesian shape modelling of cross-sectional geological data. In K. Thomas, S. Fabian, F. Jan, & I. Henriette (Eds.), 29th International Workshop on Statistical Modelling, 14-18 July 2014, Göttingen, Germany ; proceedings (161-164)

Shape information is of great importance in many applications. For example, the oil-bearing capacity of sand bodies, the subterranean remnants of ancient rivers, is related to their cross-sectional shapes. The analysis of these shapes is therefore of...

Bivariate Estimation of Distribution Algorithms for Protein Structure Prediction (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Bonetti, D., Delbem, A., & Einbeck, J. (2014). Bivariate Estimation of Distribution Algorithms for Protein Structure Prediction. In T. Kneib, F. Sobotka, J. Fahrenholz, & H. Irmer (Eds.), 29th International Workshop on Statistical Modelling, 14-18 July 2014, Göttingen, Germany ; proceedings (15-18)

A real-valued bivariate ‘Estimation of Distribution Algorithm’ specific for the ab initio and full-atom Protein Structure Prediction problem is proposed. It is known that this is a multidimensional and multimodal problem. In order to deal with the mu... Read More about Bivariate Estimation of Distribution Algorithms for Protein Structure Prediction.
