  • Semi-Supervised Learning Overview 1 Semi-Supervised Learning
    CS 446 Machine Learning Fall 2016 Nov 10, 2016 Semi-Supervised Learning Professor: Dan Roth Scribe: Ben Zhou, C. Cervantes Overview • Semi-Supervised Learning • Expectation Maximization • K-Means Algorithm 1 Semi-Supervised Learning Consider the problem of prepositional phrase attachment; we want to predict to which preceding phrase a prepositional phrase attaches, as in Buy car with money. Buy car with wheels. In this setting, each sentence has four features (one for each word) and our goal is to predict whether to attach the preposition ("with") to the verb ("buy") or the noun ("car"). Let us further expand the feature space to include all conjunctions, resulting in 15 total features. In the Naive Bayes setting, we want to predict noun or verb, given our features ([x1:::x15]). Therefore, we must estimate P (n) P (v) P (x1jn) P (x1jv) ... P (xnjn) P (xnjv) Note that there are two values for each cell in the column (ex. P (x1jn = 1) and P (x1jn = 0)). Now, given an example (x1; x2:::xn; ?), we compare P (njx) = P (n)P (x1jn):::P (xnjn) P (vjx) = P (v)P (x1jv):::P (xnjv). and predict the label with the highest probability. Consider that after seeing 10 examples, we have Semi-Supervised Learning-1 P (n) = 0:5 P (v) = 0:5 P (x1jn) = 0:75 P (x1jv) = 0:25 P (x2jn) = 0:5 P (x2jv) = 0:25 P (x3jn) = 0:5 P (x3jv) = 0:75 P (x4jn) = 0:5 P (xnjv) = 0:5 If now we have an example of x = [1000], we have 3 P (njx) = 0:5 ∗ 0:75 ∗ 0:5 ∗ 0:5 ∗ 0:5 = 64 3 P (vjx) = 0:5 ∗ 0:25 ∗ 0:75 ∗ 0:25 ∗ 0:5 = 256 According to Naive Bayes, we then compare these two numbers and predict that the label for this example is n.

  • Clustering on the Unit Hypersphere Using Von Mises-Fisher Distributions
    JournalofMachineLearningResearch6(2005)1345–1382 Submitted 9/04; Revised 4/05; Published 9/05 Clustering on the Unit Hypersphere using von Mises-Fisher Distributions Arindam Banerjee [email protected] Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering University of Texas at Austin Austin, TX 78712, USA Inderjit S. Dhillon [email protected] Department of Computer Sciences University of Texas at Austin Austin, TX 78712, USA Joydeep Ghosh [email protected] Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering University of Texas at Austin Austin, TX 78712, USA Suvrit Sra [email protected] Department of Computer Sciences University of Texas at Austin Austin, TX 78712, USA Editor: Greg Ridgeway Abstract Several large scale data mining applications, such as text categorization and gene expression anal- ysis, involve high-dimensional data that is also inherently directional in nature. Often such data is L2 normalized so that it lies on the surface of a unit hypersphere. Popular models such as (mixtures of) multi-variate Gaussians are inadequate for characterizing such data. This paper proposes a gen- erative mixture-model approach to clustering directional data based on the von Mises-Fisher (vMF) distribution, which arises naturally for data distributed on the unit hypersphere. In particular, we derive and analyze two variants of the Expectation Maximization (EM) framework for estimating the mean and concentration parameters of this mixture. Numerical estimation of the concentra- tion parameters is non-trivial in high dimensions since it involves functional inversion of ratios of Bessel functions. We also formulate two clustering algorithms corresponding to the variants of EM that we derive. Our approach provides a theoretical basis for the use of cosine similarity that has been widely employed by the information retrieval community, and obtains the spherical kmeans algorithm (kmeans with cosine similarity) as a special case of both variants.

  • Hard and Soft EM in Bayesian Network Learning from Incomplete Data
    algorithms Article Hard and Soft EM in Bayesian Network Learning from Incomplete Data Andrea Ruggieri 1,†, Francesco Stranieri 1,† , Fabio Stella 1 and Marco Scutari 2,* 1 Department of Informatics, Systems and Communication, Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca, 20126 Milano, Italy; [email protected] (A.R.); [email protected] (F.S.); [email protected] (F.S.) 2 Istituto Dalle Molle di Studi sull’Intelligenza Artificiale (IDSIA), 6962 Viganello, Switzerland * Correspondence: [email protected] † These authors contributed equally to this work. Received: 18 November 2020; Accepted: 7 December 2020; Published: 9 December 2020 Abstract: Incomplete data are a common feature in many domains, from clinical trials to industrial applications. Bayesian networks (BNs) are often used in these domains because of their graphical and causal interpretations. BN parameter learning from incomplete data is usually implemented with the Expectation-Maximisation algorithm (EM), which computes the relevant sufficient statistics (“soft EM”) using belief propagation. Similarly, the Structural Expectation-Maximisation algorithm (Structural EM) learns the network structure of the BN from those sufficient statistics using algorithms designed for complete data. However, practical implementations of parameter and structure learning often impute missing data (“hard EM”) to compute sufficient statistics instead of using belief propagation, for both ease of implementation and computational speed. In this paper, we investigate the question: what is the impact of using imputation instead of belief propagation on the quality of the resulting BNs? From a simulation study using synthetic data and reference BNs, we find that it is possible to recommend one approach over the other in several scenarios based on the characteristics of the data.
