## Multivariate normal distribution

We provide some code to draw data from a multivariate normal distribution.
From the uniform random number generator of J, we build a 1-dimensional normal random number generator. The verb randn comes from the addon math/mt/rand.ijs.

We follow a "widely used method" (Wikipedia dixit), to draw random values from a multivariate normal distribution (see verb randmultin). The J/Lapack interface is used to compute the Cholesky decomposition of the covariance matrix.

Finally, we compute the coordinates of the 2-sigma concentration ellipse for a 2d normal distribution (see verb cellipse). We only compute the points for the positive quadrant and then proceed by symmetry.

An ellipse is a set of points in a plane whose distances from two fixed points (viz. foci) add to a constant. We first consider the equation of an ellipse in standard form (i.e., centred on origin and aligned with the axis of the orthonormal basis).

$foci: (\pm c,0) \;with\; c>0$
$\begin{equation*} \begin{split} \sqrt{(x+c)^2+y^2}+\sqrt{(x-c)^2+y^2} & = 2a \\ \frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2} & = 1 \;with\; b=\sqrt{a^2-c^2} \\ y & = \sqrt{\left( 1 - \frac{x^2}{a^2} \right)b^2} \end{split} \end{equation*}$

The verb el implements this last equation to compute the ordinate of an ellipse in standard form.

The standard form equation of an ellipse can be written in matrix notation:
$1=\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2} = \begin{bmatrix}x & y\end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix} \frac{1}{a^2} & 0 \\ 0 & \frac{1}{b^2} \end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix}x \\ y\end{bmatrix} = X^T \Lambda \, X$

To model a generic 2d ellipse, we can start from a standard form one to which we apply a linear transformation combining translation, scaling and rotation. For convenience of notation, we will note the scaling factor $$\sqrt{k}$$, the translation vector $$M$$ and the rotation matrix $$R$$:

$\begin{equation*} \begin{split} \tilde{X} & = M + \sqrt{k} RX \\ X & = \sqrt{k}^{-1} R^T (\tilde{X}-M) \end{split} \end{equation*}$

Thus, applying the linear transformation to the equation of the ellipse, we have:

$\begin{equation*} \begin{split} X^T \Lambda \, X & = 1 \\ \sqrt{k}^{-2} (\tilde{X}-M)^T R \Lambda R^T (\tilde{X}-M) & = 1 \\ (\tilde{X}-M)^T R \Lambda R^T (\tilde{X}-M) & = k \;(Eq.1)\\ \end{split} \end{equation*}$

Let us introduce the probability density function of a 2d normal distribution with covariance $$C$$ and mean $$M$$. We use the notation $$D$$ (like "Difference") for $$X-M$$.
$G(X) = \frac{1}{2\pi \sqrt{det C}} \; exp \left[ -\frac{1}{2} D^T C^{-1} D \right]$

The equation for the set of points of equal density is the one of an ellipse:

$\begin{equation*} \begin{split} & \;\;\;\;\; \left\{ X: G(X) = k_1 \right\} \\ &= \left\{ X: D^T C^{-1} D = k \right\} \; with \; k=-2ln\left(2\pi k_1 \sqrt{det C}\right) \;(Eq.2) \end{split} \end{equation*}$

Matching $$(Eq.1)$$ and $$(Eq.2)$$, we have: $$C^{-1} \leftrightarrow R \Lambda R^T$$, or equivalently: $$C \leftrightarrow R \Lambda^{-1} R^T \; (Eq.3)$$ (given that the inverse of an orthogonal matrix, here the rotation matrix, is its transpose).
Therefore, to draw the concentration ellipse, we compute the eigen decomposition of the inverse of the covariance matrix. Then, we compute the coordinates of the standard form ellipse (the diagonal elements of $$\Lambda$$ are $$1/a^2$$ and $$1/b^2$$) and we transform it with a scaling factor $$\sqrt{k}$$, a rotation $$R$$ and a translation $$M$$.

Given a vector $$v$$, the projection of the data $$X$$ on $$v$$ is $$v^T X$$. The variance of the projected data is $$v^T C v$$ (see this very nice blog post about a geometric interpretation of the covariance matrix). The $$v$$ maximising the covariance of the projected data is the largest eigenvector of $$C$$ (see this straightforward derivation based on the method of Lagrange multipliers).

Therefore, citing the aforementioned article:

[...]the largest eigenvector of the covariance matrix always points into the direction of the largest variance of the data, and the magnitude of this vector equals the corresponding eigenvalue. The second largest eigenvector is always orthogonal to the largest eigenvector, and points into the direction of the second largest spread of the data.

From $$(Eq.3)$$, we have that $$a^2$$ is the magnitude of the vector that points into the direction of the largest variance which is also, by definition, $$\sigma_x^2$$, the square of the standard deviation. Thus, we understand why we are speaking of the $$\sqrt{k}\sigma$$-concentration ellipse. The code below (see verb cellipse), computes the $$2\sigma$$-concentration ellipse.

## Gaussian Mixture Model

We assume that the data $$X$$ can be modelled by a deterministic parametric model (or Hypothesis) $$H(S)$$ (where $$S$$ are the parameters of $$H$$). More precisely, let say that we have $$K$$ a priori models $$H_k(S_k)$$ which are processes that could have generated the observed data $$X$$. We would like to define a similarity between data point $$X_n$$ and model $$H_k$$. We note this similarity $$l(n|k)$$. The sum of the similarities of a point with each of the $$K$$ models is named its likelihood and is written $$l(n)=\sum_k l(n|k)$$. For a more convenient derivation and for avoiding some problems of numerical precision, we may also use the log-likelihood $$ll(n)=ln \left[ \sum_k l(n|k) \right]$$. The total likelihood of the dataset $$X$$ will be the product of the individual likelihoods: $$L=\Pi_n l(n)$$ or $$LL=\sum_n ll(n)$$.

Correct values of the parameters are found by reaching a local maximum of $$LL$$:

$\begin{equation*} \begin{split} & \;\;\;\;\; \partial / \partial S_k \sum_n ll(n) &= 0 \\ &= \sum_n \partial / \partial S_k ln(l(n)) &= 0 \\ &= \sum_n \left[ 1/l(n) \right] \partial / \partial S_k \left[ \sum_{k'} l(n|k') \right] &= 0 \\ &= \left\{ \partial / \partial S_k \left[ \sum_{k'} l(n|k') \right]= \partial / \partial S_k l(n|k) \; and \; \partial y = y \partial ln(y)\right\} \\ & \;\;\;\;\; \sum_n \left[ l(n|k) / l(n) \right] \partial ll(n|k) / \partial S_k &= 0 \\ &= \left\{ f(k|n) = l(n|k) / l(n) \right\} \\ & \;\;\;\;\; \sum_n f(k|n) \; \partial ll(n|k) / \partial S_k &= 0 \end{split} \end{equation*}$

$$f(k|n)$$ is a fuzzy class membership. This is an idea from L. Perlovsky who described the optimisation process as a movement from high fuzzy class membership and uncertain values of parameters $$S_k$$ to crisp class membership and known values of parameters.

Remark that $$f(k|n) \in [0,1]$$ while $$l(n|k) \in [0,\infty]$$ since, as we will soon see, the similarity is most often modelled with a probability density function (PDF) and the value of a PDF at a given point is the relative likelihood that the value of the random variable would equal the value of that point.

$$f(k|n)$$ measures how likely it is that model $$k$$ is a source of observed data $$X_n$$. While $$l(n|k)$$ measures the likelihood of observing data $$X_n$$ given that it came from a process modelled by $$H_k$$.

By modelling the similarity $$l(n|k)$$ as a joint likelihood of data $$X_n$$ and model $$H_k$$, the optimisation problem can be set in the context of a maximum likelihood (ML) estimation. This is interesting since ML is asymptotically unbiased and efficient. Meaning that with enough data (viz. asymptotically), usually a few points per model parameters, on average the estimated parameters attain their true value (viz. unbiased), with the average error of estimated parameters attaining the lowest possible values (i.e., the Cramer-Rao lower bound) (viz. efficient). Thus, we have:

$l(n|k) = pdf(X_n,H_k) = P(k) \; pdf(X_n|H_k)$

In this derivation, $$P(k)$$, the prior probability for model $$H_k$$ to generate a point, is considered constant. It is the proportion of observed data points from class $$k$$. We note it $$r_k$$ ($$r$$ for rate). We impose that each observation must have been produced by one of the models. Therefore, $$\sum r_k = 1$$.

We now consider the case of $$pdf(X_n|H_k)$$ being modelled by a Gaussian density with mean $$M_k$$ and covariance $$C_k$$ (both of which are in that case the parameters $$S_k$$ of model $$H_k$$):

$\begin{equation*} \begin{split} pdf(X_n|H_k) &= G \left[ X_n | M_k, C_k \right] \\ G \left[ X_n | M_k, C_k \right] &= (2\pi)^{-d/2} (det C_k)^{-1/2} exp \left( -0.5 D^{T}_{nk} C^{-1}_k D_{nk} \right) \\ D_{nk} &= X_n - M_k \end{split} \end{equation*}$

In this context, the likelihood of an individual observation is:

$l(n) = \sum_k l(n|k) = \sum_k pdf(X_n,H_k) = pdf(X_n) = \sum_k r_k G \left[ X_n | M_k, C_k \right]$

And the total likelihood is:

$L = \Pi_k \left[ \sum_k r_k G \left[ X_n | M_k, C_k \right] \right]$

The Lagrange multiplier method is used to take into account the normalisation constraint on the class rates $$r_k$$ (viz. $$\sum r_k = 1$$):

$\tilde{LL} = \sum_n ln \left[ \sum_k r_k G \left[ X_n | M_k, C_k \right] \right] + \lambda \left( \sum_k r_k - 1 \right)$

At its maximum, $$\tilde{LL}$$ is such that:

$\begin{equation*} \begin{split} & \;& \partial \tilde{LL} / \partial r_k &= 0 \\ &= \;& \sum_n \left[ 1 / l(n) \right] \partial / \partial r_k \left[ \sum_k r_k G \left[ X_n | M_k, C_k \right]\right] + \lambda &= 0 \\ &= \;& \sum_n f(k|n) / r_k + \lambda &= 0 \\ &= \;& r_k = - \sum_n f(k|n) / \lambda \end{split} \end{equation*}$

Using the normalisation constraint over the class rates, we can solve for $$\lambda$$:

$\begin{equation*} \begin{split} & \;& \sum_k r_k = 1 \\ &= \;& \sum_k - \sum_n f(k|n) / \lambda = 1 \\ &= \;& \left\{ \sum_k f(k|n) = 1 \right\} \\ & & \lambda = -N \end{split} \end{equation*}$

And thus,

$\begin{equation*} \begin{split} & \;& r_k = \sum_n f(k|n) / N \\ &= \;& \left\{ N_k = \sum_n f(k|n) \;,\; \text{the "number" of observations on object k} \right\} \\ & & r_k = N_k / N \end{split} \end{equation*}$

We can now solve for $$M_k$$:

$\begin{equation*} \begin{split} & \;& \partial LL / \partial M_k = 0 \\ &= \;& \sum_n f(k|n) \partial \left[ -0.5 D_{nk}^T C_k^{-1}D_{nk} \right] / \partial M_k = 0 \\ &= \;& \sum_n f(k|n) C_k^{-1}D_{nk} = 0 \\ &= \;& \left\{ D_{nk} = X_n - M_k \text{, and eliminate } C_k \right\} \\ & & \sum_n f(k|n) M_k = \sum_n f(k|n) X_n \\ &= \;& M_k = \sum_n f(k|n) X_n / N_k \end{split} \end{equation*}$

Finally, we solve for $$C_k$$:

$\begin{equation*} \begin{split} & \;& \partial LL / \partial C_k^{-1} = 0 \\ &= \;& \sum_n f(k|n) \; \partial ll(n|k) / \partial C_k^{-1} = 0 \\ &= \;& \left\{ \partial log(det X) / \partial X = X^{-1T} \text{ see for example matrixcalculus.org} \right\} \\ & &\left\{ \partial a^TXa / \partial X = a a^T\right\} \\ & &\left\{ det(A^n) = det(A)^n \right\} \\ & &\sum_n f(k|n) \left[ 0.5 C_k - 0.5D_{nk}D_{nk}^T \right] = 0 \\ &= \;& \sum_n f(k|n) C_k = \sum_n f(k|n) D_{nk}D_{nk}^T \\ &= \;& Ck = \sum_n f(k|n) D_{nk} D_{nk}^T \; / \; N_k \end{split} \end{equation*}$

Given this derivation, the code below for one iteration of the algorithm should be quite straightforward:

tconv=: [: *./@, [ > |@-/@] NB. test convergence

t=: >:t
)



The only new aspect of this code is how it deals with a covariance matrix $$C_k$$ becoming singular (i.e., when its determinant becomes too small or, but it's more rare, too big). In that case, we stop updating the parameter $$C_k$$ and we fix its value to a covariance matrix corresponding to an estimation of the precision of the sensor. In other words, we fix the value of $$C_k$$ so that the corresponding $$2\sigma$$-concentration ellipse covers a small area. We also fix $$M_k$$ to the value it had when $$C_k$$ became singular.

Also, we compute how much the parameters changed between two iterations (see noun conv) to determine when the maximum likelihood estimation has converged.

The initialisation is also quite simple, apart from the initialisation of the means where we employ the same algorithm used for kmeans++. This is a variation on the code available on rosettacode.org. One should notice the elegant wghtprob due to Roger Hui (see http://j.mp/lj5Pnt).

This article is very informative on the difference between the traditional Operating Characteristic curve and the PR curve: The Relationship Between Precision-Recall and ROC Curves. Moreover, since our maximisation of the likelihood by gradient ascent can attain a local maximum, we do multiple runs and we keep the one with minimum Classification Entropy ($$CE$$). $$CE$$ is the mean over all classes of the log of the classification probability (i.e., posterior Bayes probability) $$P(k|n)$$ which at convergence is estimated by $$f(k|n)$$ ($$m$$ being an index over the modes in class $$k$$): $CE = - \sum_n \sum_k \left[ \sum_m f(k,m|n) \right] ln \left[ \sum_m f(k,m|n) \right]$ $$CE$$ attains its minimum (viz. $$0$$) when the classification is crisp (i.e., $$f(k|n) = 0 \text{ or } 1)$$). run=: monad define while.

## Results

### Dataset 1

For the first dataset, we obtain the following result with an AUCPR of $$O.999$$ (with no teacher).

### Dataset 2

For the second dataset, we obtain the following result with an AUCPR of $$O.175$$ (with only $$20\%$$ of the points used as a teacher). In case of a perfect teacher, the AUCPR would have been $$0.211$$. Therefore, we attained $$83\%$$ of the Bayes optimum with prior knowledge of the classes of only $$20\%$$ of the points.

### Dataset 3

For the third dataset, we obtain the following result with an AUCPR of $$O.916$$.

In case we don't know the number of modes per class, we can use metarun2 and we obtain the following result with an AUCPR of $$0.965$$.
