Abstract

We apply mixture of principal component analyzers (MPCA) to missing value estimation problems. A variational Bayes (VB) method for MPCA with missing values is developed. The missing values are regarded as hidden variables aud their estimation is done simultaneously with the parameter estimation. It is found that VB method is better than maximum likelihood method by using artificial data. We also applied our method to DNA microarray data and the performance outweighed the conventional k-nearest neighbor method.
