Beyond independent component analysis: identifiability and algorithms

Alvaro Ribot, Anna Seigal, Piotr Zwiernik

Independent Component Analysis (ICA) is a classical method for recovering latent variables with useful identifiability properties. For independent variables, cumulant tensors are d…

Contrastive independent component analysis

Kexin Wang, Aida Maraj, Anna Seigal

In recent years, there has been growing interest in jointly analyzing a foreground dataset, representing an experimental group, and a background dataset, representing a control gro…

Identifiability of overcomplete independent component analysis

Kexin Wang, Anna Seigal

Independent component analysis (ICA) studies mixtures of independent latent sources. An ICA model is identifiable if the mixing can be recovered uniquely. It is well-known that ICA…

Complete collineations for maximum likelihood estimation

Gergely Bérczi, Eloise Hamilton, Philipp Reichenbach +1

We import the algebro-geometric notion of a complete collineation into the study of maximum likelihood estimation in directed Gaussian graphical models. A complete collineation pro…

Symmetries in Directed Gaussian Graphical Models

Visu Makam, Philipp Reichenbach, Anna Seigal

We define Gaussian graphical models on directed acyclic graphs with coloured vertices and edges, calling them RDAG (restricted directed acyclic graph) models. If two vertices or ed…

Toric invariant theory for maximum likelihood estimation in log-linear models

Carlos Améndola, Kathlén Kohn, Philipp Reichenbach +1

We establish connections between invariant theory and maximum likelihood estimation for discrete statistical models. We show that norm minimization over a torus orbit is equivalent…

Invariant theory and scaling algorithms for maximum likelihood estimation

Carlos Améndola, Kathlén Kohn, Philipp Reichenbach +1

We uncover connections between maximum likelihood estimation in statistics and norm minimization over a group orbit in invariant theory. We focus on Gaussian transformation familie…

Duality of Graphical Models and Tensor Networks

Elina Robeva, Anna Seigal

In this article we show the duality between tensor networks and undirected graphical models with discrete variables. We study tensor networks on hypergraphs, which we call tensor h…
