We find that our methods represent the data consistently better than Gaussian mixture models with equivalent number of parameters. We also evaluate our proposed methods for building generative classifiers for a number of classification tasks from the UCI Repository. We find that these generative models perform as well or better than discriminative classifiers such as a Support Vector Machine (SVM). 000041281 540__ $$fCC BY 000041281 542__ $$fIn copyright - single owner 000041281 650__ $$aProbability Theory$$024607 000041281 650__ $$aModels, Statistical$$028242 000041281 650__ $$aSpeech Recognition Software$$036177 000041281 650__ $$aVocalization, Animal$$027896 000041281 6531_ $$acopula models 000041281 691__ $$aSchool of Medicine$$041369 000041281 692__ $$aCenter for Spoken Language Understanding$$041388 000041281 7001_ $$aBayestehtashk, Alireza$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000041281 8564_ $$9139d502d-2a9b-4efe-8813-9013d5e69e2d$$s8394717$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/41281/files/Bayestehtashk.Alriza.2018.pdf 000041281 909CO $$ooai:digitalcollections.ohsu.edu:41281$$pstudent-work 000041281 980__ $$aTheses and Dissertations 000041281 981__ $$aPublished$$b2023-07-13
