Variational Inference Optimized Using the Curved Geometry of Coupled Free Energy
Kenric Nelson, Igor Oliveira, Amenah Al-Najafi +2
We introduce an optimization framework for variational inference based on the coupled free energy, extending variational inference techniques to account for the curved geometry of…
Current Overview of Statistical Fiber Bundles Model and Its Application to Physics-based Reliability Analysis of Thin-film Dielectrics
James U. Gleaton, David Han, James D. Lynch +2
In this paper, we present a critical overview of statistical fiber bundles models. We discuss relevant aspects, like assumptions and consequences stemming from models in the litera…
On analysis of incomplete field failure data
Zhisheng Ye, Hon Keung Tony Ng
Many commercial products are sold with warranties and indirectly through dealers. The manufacturer-retailer distribution mechanism results in serious missing data problems in field…
Efficient Computational Algorithm for Optimal Allocation in Regression Models
Wei Gao, Ping Shing Chan, Hon Keung Tony Ng +1
In this article, we discuss the optimal allocation problem in an experiment when a regression model is used for statistical analysis. Monotonic convergence for a general class of m…
