摘要
This paper presents a variational learning framework to analyze finite g eneralized G aussian m ixture models (GGMM). The model incorporates several mixtures that are widely used in signal and image processing applications. The motivation behind this work is the shape flexibility characteristics of the generalized Gaussian distribution (GGD) because of which it can be applied to different types of data. We present a method to evaluate the posterior distribution and Bayes estimators using the variational expectation-maximization algorithm. The effective number of components of the GGMM is determined automatically. The test results show the adequacy of the proposed algorithm by applying it to medical, astrological, and image segmentation applications; while comparing it with various other approaches.
