U-Likelihood and U-Updating Algorithms: Statistical Inference in Latent Variable Models
Abstract. In this paper we consider latent variable models and introduce a new U-likelihood concept for estimating the distribution over hidden variables. One can derive an estimat...

Unsupervised Classifier Selection Based on Two-Sample Test
We propose a well-founded method of ranking a pool of m trained classifiers by their suitability for the current input of n instances. It can be used when dynamically selecting a s...
