Composite likelihood methods for parsimonious model-based clustering of mixed-type data
In this paper, we propose twelve parsimonious models for clustering mixed-type (ordinal and continuous) data. The dependence among the different...

Pseudo-document simulation for comparing LDA, GSDMM and GPM topic models on short and sparse text using Twitter data
Topic models are a useful and popular method to find latent topics of documents. However, the short and sparse texts in social media micro-blogs such...

Weighted high dimensional data reduction of finite element features: an application on high pressure of an abdominal aortic aneurysm
In this work we propose a low rank approximation of areal, particularly three dimensional, data utilizing additional weights. This way we enable...
