Modeling of mixed data for Poisson prediction
Matej Petrouš, Evženie Uglickich · 2020
The paper deals with the task of modeling mixed continuous Gaussian and discrete Poisson data observed on a multimodal system. The proposed solution is based on recursive algorithms of Bayesian mixture estimation. The main contributions of the approach are: (i) the use of the discretized information of normal variables in the form of their clusters in order to keep the one-pass recursive estimation methodology and (ii) the prediction of the multimodal Poisson variable. Experiments with simulated and real data are presented.
