Sum-Product Network in the context of missing data / Sum-Product Nätverk i samband med saknade data

Clavier, Pierre January 2020 (has links)
In recent years, the interest in new Deep Learning methods has increased considerably due to their robustness and applications in many fields. However, the lack of interpretability of these models and the lack of theoretical knowledge about them raises many issues. It is in this context that sum product network models have emerged. From a mathematical point of view, SPNs can be described as Directed Acyclic Graphs. In practice, they can be seen as deep mixture models and as a consequence they can be used to represent very rich collections of distributions. The objective of this master thesis was threefold. First we formalized the concept of SPNs with proper mathematical notations, using the concept of Directed Acyclic Graphs and Bayesian Networks theory. Then we developed a new method for learning the structure of a SPN, based on K-means and Mutual Information Theory. Finally we proposed a new method for the estimation of parameters in a fixed SPN, in the context of incomplete data. Our estimation method is based on maximum likelihood methods with the EM algorithm. / Under de senaste åren har intresset för nya Deep Learning-metoder ökat avsevärt på grund av deras robusthet samt deras tillämpning inom en mängd områden. Bristen på teoretisk kunskap om dessa modeller samt deras svårtolkad karaktär väcker emellertid många frågor. Det är i detta sammanhang som Sum-Product Network kom fram, vilken erbjuder en viss ambivalens då den situerar sig mellan ett linjärt neuralt nätverk utan aktiveringsfunktion och en sannolikhetsgraf. Inom vanliga applikationer med verklig data hittar vi ofta ofullständiga, censurerade eller trunkerad data. Inlärningen av dessa grafer till verklig data är dock fortfarande obefintlig. Syftet med detta examensarbete är att studera några grundläggande egenskaper hos Sum-Product Networks och försöka utöka deras inlärning och uppträning till ofullständig data. Trovärdighetsskattningar med hjälp av EM-algoritmer kommer att användas för att utöka inlärningen av dessa grafer till ofullständiga data.
