Latent Mixture Modeling for Clustered Data
[article]
2017
arXiv
pre-print
We adapt the mixture-of-experts model to the latent distributions, and propose a model in which each cluster-wise density is represented as a mixture of latent experts with cluster-wise mixing proportions ...
This article proposes a mixture modeling approach to estimating cluster-wise conditional distributions in clustered (grouped) data. ...
For modeling independent data, the mixture model with covariates was originally proposed in Jacob et al. (1991) , known as mixture-ofexperts. ...

Finite mixture models have become a popular tool for clustering. Amongst other uses, they have been applied for clustering longitudinal data and clustering high-dimensional data. ...
In the latter case, a latent Gaussian mixture model is sometimes used. ...
From
Summary A mixture model for clustering high-dimensional longitudinal data was introduced, which has the ability to account for the longitudinal nature of the data being clustered while also providing ...

pre-print
The possibly low-dimensional latent mixture model allows us to summarize the properties of the high-dimensional clusters (or density manifolds) describing the data. ...
To produce more appropriate clusterings, we introduce a model which warps a latent mixture of Gaussians to produce nonparametric cluster shapes. ...

Model-based clustering for multidimensional social networks
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
We propose the infinite latent position cluster model for multidimensional network data, which enables model-based clustering of actors interacting across multiple social dimensions. ...
Latent space models for network data are useful to recover clustering of the actors, as they allow to represent similarities between them by their positions and relative distances in an interpretable low ...
The latter may be thought as a latent class analysis model for network data and it is explicitly designed to model clustering of the nodes. ...

A factor mixture analysis model for multivariate binary data
[article]
2010
arXiv
pre-print
The paper proposes a latent variable model for binary data coming from an unobserved heterogeneous population. ...
The aim of the proposed model is twofold: it allows to achieve dimension reduction when the data are dichotomous and, simultaneously, it performs model based clustering in the latent space. ...
For this reason latent class is also referred to as mixture-model clustering (McLachlan and Basford, 1988) or model-based clustering (Banfield and Raftery, 1993; Fraley and Raftery, 2002) . ...

In this tutorial, we describe Bayesian nonparametric methods, a class of methods that side-steps this issue by allowing the data to determine the complexity of the model. ...
