Bayesian taut splines for estimating the number of modes

no code implementations11 Jul 2023 José E. Chacón, Javier Fernández Serrano

The number of modes in a probability density function is representative of the complexity of a model and can also be viewed as the number of subpopulations.

Bump hunting through density curvature features

no code implementations30 Jul 2022 José E. Chacón, Javier Fernández Serrano

Bump hunting deals with finding in sample spaces meaningful data subsets known as bumps.

Minimum adjusted Rand index for two clusterings of a given size

no code implementations10 Feb 2020 José E. Chacón, Ana I. Rastrojo

The adjusted Rand index (ARI) is commonly used in cluster analysis to measure the degree of agreement between two data partitions.

Explicit agreement extremes for a $2\times2$ table with given marginals

no code implementations21 Jan 2020 José E. Chacón

The problem of maximizing (or minimizing) the agreement between clusterings, subject to given marginals, can be formally posed under a common framework for several agreement measures.

A close-up comparison of the misclassification error distance and the adjusted Rand index for external clustering evaluation

no code implementations26 Jul 2019 José E. Chacón

The misclassification error distance and the adjusted Rand index are two of the most commonly used criteria to evaluate the performance of clustering algorithms.

Modal clustering asymptotics with applications to bandwidth selection

no code implementations22 Jan 2019 Alessandro Casa, José E. Chacón, Giovanna Menardi

Density-based clustering relies on the idea of linking groups to some specific features of the probability distribution underlying the data.

Clustering Density Estimation

The modal age of Statistics

no code implementations8 Jul 2018 José E. Chacón

Recently, a number of statistical problems have found an unexpected solution by inspecting them through a "modal point of view".

Mixture model modal clustering

no code implementations15 Sep 2016 José E. Chacón

The two most extended density-based approaches to clustering are surely mixture model clustering and modal clustering.

A Population Background for Nonparametric Density-Based Clustering

no code implementations6 Aug 2014 José E. Chacón

Despite its popularity, it is widely recognized that the investigation of some theoretical aspects of clustering has been relatively sparse.

A comparison of bandwidth selectors for mean shift clustering

no code implementations29 Oct 2013 José E. Chacón, Pablo Monfort

We explore the performance of several automatic bandwidth selectors, originally designed for density gradient estimation, as data-based procedures for nonparametric, modal clustering.
