The aim of this session is presentation and discussion of novelty in three important areas of Clustering. The first area is clustering on textual data, and in particular Topic Modeling, which gains interest day after day due to the increasing amount of available data. The second focused area is adversarial clustering, which is used for the purpose of detecting illegal or malicious activities within large volumes of data, especially for Medical Frauds. The last area concerns the study of specific properties of the Gaussian mixture maximum likelihood estimator.<\/span><\/p>\n

The session will include talks about recent advances in mixture models for matrixvariate and tensor data. This type of data has received an increasing interest by researchers, especially within the finite mixture model literature. Typical examples of this data structure include spatial multivariate data, longitudinal data on multiple response variables or spatio-temporal data. In all these cases the data can be arranged in a three-way or four-way array.<\/span><\/p>\n

Finite mixtures are a popular tool for modeling heterogeneity in data. A high number of parameters involved in multivariate and matrix mixture models can lead to overfitting and mixture order underestimation. One effective way of addressing this issue is to consider various parsimonious models with an objective to model and explain the data with as few parameters as possible. The session is devoted to recent developments in this area.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is well-known the detrimental effect that (even few) outlying observations could have on many statistical procedures. Robust methods have been introduced to deal with outliers and departures from the assumed models. This is also the case when applying many popular clustering procedures. In fact, different clusters can be joined incorrectly, and uninteresting clusters made from few outlying observations can be detected. Therefore, there is a clear need for robust clustering methods being able to resist outliers and deviations from model assumptions in these clustering approaches. Moreover, robust clustering methods are also useful for detecting anomalous data patterns that can be further investigated if necessary. Some interesting robust clustering approaches and useful ideas in this framework will be presented in this session.<\/span><\/p>\n

Finite and infinite mixture models are important tools for flexible modeling of data and for Bayesian cluster analysis. They allow for a principled approach to include prior information and provide a more complete picture of model uncertainty when performing inference. This session highlights different aspects of Bayesian estimation of finite and infinite mixture models and discusses new developments in this area.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bayesian non parametrics is a well established area of research, characterized by the inclusion of unknown functions without a prespecified form as part of the model specification. These quantities are estimated through Bayesian inference, allowing a rigorous quantification of uncertainty. In addition to a very large literature regarding the theoretical properties of these methods, many authors are nowadays exploiting these methods to analyse real data, focusing on challenging regression, classification and unstructured problems.<\/span><\/p>\n

Co-clustering methods have been largely developed since the Hartigan\u2019s work in 1975. These techniques are based on a double partition of the rows and columns of a data matrix aiming to discover hidden patterns clusters of observations that look alike and also sets of variables the most informative for such clusters. The obtained co-clusters provide interpretable block-clustering structures from data which give us more information about the links between observations and variables in a reduced dimensional matrix. Co-clustering techniques have found several applications for the treatment of sparse and high-dimensional data in various fields, such as gene expression analysis, bioinformatics, text mining, web mining, image analysis, and network analysis. Particularly interesting is the extension of co-clustering methods to sequences of temporal data also modelling through functional data, and to distributional data, to cluster high-dimensional data aggregate in form of curves or distributions according to their similarity and to set temporal windows or set of consecutive time instants which related to alike trends in the different clusters. An extension of Co-clustering methods to distributional data have been recently proposed. Usually they are distance-based methods using clustering algorithms based on suitable distances. The co-clusters are described by prototypes based on a linear combination of the variable distributions of the alike individuals. Co-clustering methods for temporal sequences and distributional find application in many fields where the high data production requests a simultaneous reduction of the observations and of the variables (e.g. energy consumption; environmental monitoring; stock exchange market; image detection; \u2026.) <\/span><\/p>\n

Bayesian mixture models with k components, with k either finite or infinite, are an extremely popular class of models, that have been successfully used in many contexts and applications. We will see a MCMC scheme to compute posterior inference for repulsive mixtures (M\u00f8ller) in Bayesian cluster detection. Compared to more traditional mixture models, repulsive mixture models produce a smaller number of well separated clusters. The mixture is finite, with a random number of components with prior distribution induced by a finite repulsive point process; M\u00f8ller will show how difficult reversible jump MCMC computation may be avoided. Argiento will introduce a finite mixture model to cluster categorical attributes with no natural ordering. In the heuristic framework, the problem of clustering these data is tackled by introducing suitable distances, while in the Bayesian model-based framework, stable sampling models for categorical data are needed. In order to provide a probabilistic solution to clustering categorical data, Argiento will provide the definition of a probability mass function over a metric space defined by the Hamming distance first and then mixtures of this distribution. In applications placing interest on large observations with missing data, usual data imputation methods may fail to reproduce the heavy-tailed behaviour of the quantities involved. Recent literature has proposed the use of multivariate extreme value theory to predict an unobserved coordinate of a random vector given large observed values of the rest. Antoniano proposes to generalize such proposal, via Bayesian mixture models based on constrained Bernstein polynomials.<\/p>\n

Directional data analysis deals with data constrained to lie on the surface of hyperspheres, which in turns can be described by unit vectors within an Euclidean space. This constraint makes directional data analysis a specific field within the realm of statistics, asking for specific techniques to tackle many issues.

Composite indices are widely used by several international organizations to measure latent multidimensional phenomena such as development, well-being, poverty, etc. Some research developments have focused on the construction of the composite index itself, i.e., on the choice of the most appropriate method to synthesize a set of indicators into a single index. Other developments concerned the analysis of the dependence relationships between several composite indices. Finally, some developments have focused on the analysis of hierarchical composite indices, which can be broken down into dimensions and subdimensions. The session will present both current research and applications.<\/span><\/p>\n

Nowadays, data comes from a variety of sources with different characteristics. From self-reported administrative datasets to social-media and pervasive systems like cellular networks, GPS devices, and WiFi hotspots. From ad hoc probabilistic surveys to non-probabilistic on-line surveys that often are replacing the former. This poses new challenges to data analysis and motivate the development of new statistical methods to exploit multiple and innovative data sources. The session’s aim is to promote the discussion on this issue.<\/span><\/p>\n

Nowadays the data structure results to be complex. This is due, for example, to observations recorded at different times or occasions, presence of several sources of heterogeneity, or different types of variables. All these features make standard models and methods inadequate. Such complex data, which can also be high-dimensional, are often analysed by latent variable models. In particular, in this session we focus the attention on the model-based clustering, that is a class of latent variable models aiming at capturing unobserved heterogeneity. However, to account for the data complexity described above, the model definition could make the standard estimation methods unfeasible. This leads to the definition of some surrogate functions or some alternative efficient estimation methods. <\/span><\/p>\n

The aim of this session is to discuss about the field of sparse statistical modelling and classification. Nowadays, many applied fields need a solution to large-scale problems with the goal to predict the outcome or to build a classifier from the predictors, both for actual prediction with future data and also to discover which predictors play an important role.<\/span><\/p>\n

Directional data arise in many scientific fields where observations are recorded as directions or angles relative to a fixed reference point. In general, the space of all directions is the unit hypersphere. Classical examples of such data include directions of winds, marine currents, Earth’s mainmagnetic field, rock fractures. Because of the nonlinear nature of the manifold, all the statistical methods for dealing with directional data require to be adapted. The aim of this session is to discuss some recent advances in directional data analysis.<\/span><\/p>\n

New methods to cluster time-series and longitudinal data are introduced to account for several data features, including serial heterogeneity, non-linear correlations in a high-dimensional setting, measurement error, missing values and dependence on external variables. The focus is on model-based clustering, where efficient algorithms are implemented to speed up the estimation of model\u2019s parameters under both the frequentist and the Bayesian paradigm. Multivariate continuous and categorical data are modelled. The methods are motivated by real data application from finance, medicine, and education.<\/span><\/p>\n

Statisticians and Data Analysts are nowadays confronted with increasingly complex data, coming from areas such as genomics, natural language processing, security and fraud detection, finance or the web and social media. The collection, representation, analysis and interpretation of such data present new challenges to researchers. Symbolic Data Analysis provides a framework for the representation and analysis of such complex data, which comprehends inherent variability. These data take the form of sets of values, intervals or distributions, arising from the aggregation of large amounts of open\/collected\/generated, or directly available in a structured or unstructured form, which takes variability into account. This session aims at presenting and discussing new approaches for the analysis of symbolic data, focusing on interval and distribution-valued data, with applications in different fields.<\/span><\/p>\n

The use of specialized statistical methods for categorical data has dramatically increased in recent years. Indeed, scientists and practitioners got more and more aware that it is unnecessary and often inappropriate to use methods for continuous data with categorical responses. The session will be devoted to the presentation of recent findings from a methodological and applicative point of view by stressing the relevance of scaling effects in categorical data analysis and discussing suitable risk indicators for priority of intervention. <\/span><\/p>\n

Deviations from theoretical assumptions together with the presence of certain amount of outlying observations are common in many practical statistical applications. This is also the case when applying Cluster Analysis methods, where these troubles could lead to unsatisfactory clustering results.

Time series clustering is a solution for classifying large temporal databases when there is not any early knowledge about classes. With emerging novel concepts, like cloud computing and big data along with their vast applications, in the last decade, research works on unsupervised solutions like clustering algorithms have been significantly increased. Clustering time-series data is routinely used in many scientific areas, ranging from gene expression data in biology to stock market analysis in finance, to discover patterns which empower data analysts to extract valuable information from complex and massive datasets. In the case of huge temporal databases, clustering can play a crucial role as a solution on its own or as a preliminary step to other statistical analysis such as supervised classification solutions or predictive modelling approaches. The session is intended to gather together some prominent researchers in the area to present and discuss the most recent research advances on this topic.<\/span><\/p>\n
