We introduce a maximum Lq-likelihood estimation (MLqE) of mixture models using our proposed expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm, namely the EM algorithm with Lq-likelihood (EM-Lq). Properties of ...

The problem of estimating the parameters which determine a mixture density has been the subject of a large, diverse body of literature spanning nearly ninety years. During the last two decades, the ...

A team of computer scientists has come up with a dramatically faster algorithm for one of the oldest problems in computer science: maximum flow. The problem asks how much material can flow through a ...
