Abstract

This paper presents a generative model and its estimation allowing to visualize binary data. Our approach is based on the Bernoulli block mixture model and the probabilistic self-organizing maps. This leads to an efficient variant of Generative Topographic Mapping. The obtained method is parsimonious and relevant on real data.
