Abstract

This paper provides a new method for multi-topic Bayesian analysis for microarray data. Our method achieves a further maximization of lower bounds in a marginalized variational Bayesian inference (MVB) for Latent Process Decomposition (LPD), which is an effective probabilistic model for microarray data. In our method, hyperparameters in LPD are updated by empirical Bayes point estimation. The experiments based on microarray data of realistically large size show efficiency of our hyperparameter reestimation technique.
