Probabilistic models, such as hidden Markov models or Bayesian networks, are commonly used to model biological data. Much of their popularity can be attributed to the existence of efficient and robust ...

This paper shows that the Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm for regime-switching dynamic factor models provides satisfactory performance relative to other estimation methods and delivers a good ...

Submodular maximization is a significant area of interest in combinatorial optimization, with numerous real-world applications. A research team led by Xiaoming SUN from the State Key Lab of Processors ...
