In this paper, we propose a Bayesian nonparametric approach for modeling and selection based on a mixture of Dirichlet processes with Dirichlet distributions, which can also be seen as an infinite Dirichlet mixture model. The proposed model uses a stick-breaking representation and is learned by a variational inference method. Due to the nature of Bayesian nonparametric approach, the problems of overfitting and underfitting are prevented. Moreover, the obstacle of estimating the correct number of clusters is sidestepped by assuming an infinite number of clusters. Compared to other approximation techniques, such as Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC), which require high computational cost and whose convergence is difficult to diagnose, the whole inference process in the proposed variational learning framework is analytically tractable with closed-form solutions. Additionally, the proposed infinite Dirichlet mixture model with variational learning requires only a modest amount of computational power which makes it suitable to large applications. The effectiveness of our model is experimentally investigated through both synthetic data sets and challenging real-life multimedia applications namely image spam filtering and human action videos categorization. 相似文献

Mixture modeling is one of the most useful tools in machine learning and data mining applications. An important challenge when applying finite mixture models is the selection of the number of clusters which best describes the data. Recent developments have shown that this problem can be handled by the application of non-parametric Bayesian techniques to mixture modeling. Another important crucial preprocessing step to mixture learning is the selection of the most relevant features. The main approach in this paper, to tackle these problems, consists on storing the knowledge in a generalized Dirichlet mixture model by applying non-parametric Bayesian estimation and inference techniques. Specifically, we extend finite generalized Dirichlet mixture models to the infinite case in which the number of components and relevant features do not need to be known a priori. This extension provides a natural representation of uncertainty regarding the challenging problem of model selection. We propose a Markov Chain Monte Carlo algorithm to learn the resulted infinite mixture. Through applications involving text and image categorization, we show that infinite mixture models offer a more powerful and robust performance than classic finite mixtures for both clustering and feature selection. 相似文献

We describe approaches for positive data modeling and classification using both finite inverted Dirichlet mixture models and support vector machines (SVMs). Inverted Dirichlet mixture models are used to tackle an outstanding challenge in SVMs namely the generation of accurate kernels. The kernels generation approaches, grounded on ideas from information theory that we consider, allow the incorporation of data structure and its structural constraints. Inverted Dirichlet mixture models are learned within a principled Bayesian framework using both Gibbs sampler and Metropolis-Hastings for parameter estimation and Bayes factor for model selection (i.e., determining the number of mixture’s components). Our Bayesian learning approach uses priors, which we derive by showing that the inverted Dirichlet distribution belongs to the family of exponential distributions, over the model parameters, and then combines these priors with information from the data to build posterior distributions. We illustrate the merits and the effectiveness of the proposed method with two real-world challenging applications namely object detection and visual scenes analysis and classification. 相似文献

In this work, we propose a novel nonparametric Bayesian method for clustering of data with spatial interdependencies. Specifically, we devise a novel normalized Gamma process, regulated by a simplified (pointwise) Markov random field (Gibbsian) distribution with a countably infinite number of states. As a result of its construction, the proposed model allows for introducing spatial dependencies in the clustering mechanics of the normalized Gamma process, thus yielding a novel nonparametric Bayesian method for spatial data clustering. We derive an efficient truncated variational Bayesian algorithm for model inference. We examine the efficacy of our approach by considering an image segmentation application using a real-world dataset. We show that our approach outperforms related methods from the field of Bayesian nonparametrics, including the infinite hidden Markov random field model, and the Dirichlet process prior. 相似文献

Nonparametric Bayesian Image Segmentation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Image segmentation algorithms partition the set of pixels of an image into a specific number of different, spatially homogeneous
groups. We propose a nonparametric Bayesian model for histogram clustering which automatically determines the number of segments
when spatial smoothness constraints on the class assignments are enforced by a Markov Random Field. A Dirichlet process prior
controls the level of resolution which corresponds to the number of clusters in data with a unique cluster structure. The resulting posterior is efficiently
sampled by a variant of a conjugate-case sampling algorithm for Dirichlet process mixture models. Experimental results are
provided for real-world gray value images, synthetic aperture radar images and magnetic resonance imaging data. 相似文献

A Digital Twin approach based on nonparametric Bayesian network for complex system health monitoring
This paper proposes a Digital Twin approach for health monitoring. In this approach, a Digital Twin model based on nonparametric Bayesian network is constructed to denote the dynamic degradation process of health state and the propagation of epistemic uncertainty. Then, a real-time model updating strategy based on improved Gaussian particle filter (GPF) and Dirichlet process mixture model (DPMM) is presented to enhance the model adaptability. On one hand, for those parameters in the nonparametric Bayesian network with prior models, the improved GPF is used to update them in real time. On the other hand, for parameters lacking a prior model, DPMM is proposed to learn hidden variables, which adaptively update the model structure and greatly reduce uncertainty. Experiments on the electro-optical system are conducted to validate the feasibility of the Digital Twin approach and verify the effectiveness of the nonparametric Bayesian network. The results of comparative experiments prove that the Digital Twin approach based on nonparametric Bayesian Network has a good model self-learning ability, which improves the accuracy of health monitoring. 相似文献

ABSTRACTMotor-skill learning for complex robotic tasks is a challenging problem due to the high task variability. Robotic clothing assistance is one such challenging problem that can greatly improve the quality-of-life for the elderly and disabled. In this study, we propose a data-efficient representation to encode task-specific motor-skills of the robot using Bayesian nonparametric latent variable models. The effectivity of the proposed motor-skill representation is demonstrated in two ways: (1) through a real-time controller that can be used as a tool for learning from demonstration to impart novel skills to the robot and (2) by demonstrating that policy search reinforcement learning in such a task-specific latent space outperforms learning in the high-dimensional joint configuration space of the robot. We implement our proposed framework in a practical setting with a dual-arm robot performing clothing assistance tasks. 相似文献

The advent of mixture models has opened the possibility of flexible models which are practical to work with. A common assumption is that practitioners typically expect that data are generated from a Gaussian mixture. The inverted Dirichlet mixture has been shown to be a better alternative to the Gaussian mixture and to be of significant value in a variety of applications involving positive data. The inverted Dirichlet is, however, usually undesirable, since it forces an assumption of positive correlation. Our focus here is to develop a Bayesian alternative to both the Gaussian and the inverted Dirichlet mixtures when dealing with positive data. The alternative that we propose is based on the generalized inverted Dirichlet distribution which offers high flexibility and ease of use, as we show in this paper. Moreover, it has a more general covariance structure than the inverted Dirichlet. The proposed mixture model is subjected to a fully Bayesian analysis based on Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) simulation methods namely Gibbs sampling and Metropolis–Hastings used to compute the posterior distribution of the parameters, and on Bayesian information criterion (BIC) used for model selection. The adoption of this purely Bayesian learning choice is motivated by the fact that Bayesian inference allows to deal with uncertainty in a unified and consistent manner. We evaluate our approach on the basis of two challenging applications concerning object classification and forgery detection. 相似文献

Monte-Carlo tree search for Bayesian reinforcement learning 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0
Bayesian model-based reinforcement learning can be formulated as a partially observable Markov decision process (POMDP) to provide a principled framework for optimally balancing exploitation and exploration. Then, a POMDP solver can be used to solve the problem. If the prior distribution over the environment’s dynamics is a product of Dirichlet distributions, the POMDP’s optimal value function can be represented using a set of multivariate polynomials. Unfortunately, the size of the polynomials grows exponentially with the problem horizon. In this paper, we examine the use of an online Monte-Carlo tree search (MCTS) algorithm for large POMDPs, to solve the Bayesian reinforcement learning problem online. We will show that such an algorithm successfully searches for a near-optimal policy. In addition, we examine the use of a parameter tying method to keep the model search space small, and propose the use of nested mixture of tied models to increase robustness of the method when our prior information does not allow us to specify the structure of tied models exactly. Experiments show that the proposed methods substantially improve scalability of current Bayesian reinforcement learning methods. 相似文献

In the Bayesian mixture modeling framework it is possible to infer the necessary number of components to model the data and
therefore it is unnecessary to explicitly restrict the number of components. Nonparametric mixture models sidestep the problem
of finding the “correct” number of mixture components by assuming infinitely many components. In this paper Dirichlet process
mixture (DPM) models are cast as infinite mixture models and inference using Markov chain Monte Carlo is described. The specification
of the priors on the model parameters is often guided by mathematical and practical convenience. The primary goal of this
paper is to compare the choice of conjugate and non-conjugate base distributions on a particular class of DPM models which
is widely used in applications, the Dirichlet process Gaussian mixture model (DPGMM). We compare computational efficiency
and modeling performance of DPGMM defined using a conjugate and a conditionally conjugate base distribution. We show that
better density models can result from using a wider class of priors with no or only a modest increase in computational effort. 相似文献

An infinite mixture of autoregressive models is developed. The unknown parameters in the mixture autoregressive model follow a mixture distribution, which is governed by a Dirichlet process prior. One main feature of our approach is the generalization of a finite mixture model by having the number of components unspecified. A Bayesian sampling scheme based on a weighted Chinese restaurant process is proposed to generate partitions of observations. Using the partitions, Bayesian prediction, while accounting for possible model uncertainty, determining the most probable number of mixture components, clustering of time series and outlier detection in time series, can be done. Numerical results from simulated and real data are presented to illustrate the methodology. 相似文献
