We employ a parameter-free distribution estimation framework where estimators are random distributions and utilize the Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence as a loss function. Wu and Vos [J. Statist. Plann. Inference 142 (2012) 1525-1536] show…
We generalize the exponential family of probability distributions. In our approach, the exponential function is replaced by a $\varphi$-function, resulting in a $\varphi$-family of probability distributions. We show how $\varphi$-families…
The exponential family is well known in machine learning and statistical physics as the maximum entropy distribution subject to a set of observed constraints, while the geometric mixture path is common in MCMC methods such as annealed…
