Title: Estimating the Intrinsic Dimension: The Bayesian way
Abstract: In this talk I will first review some of the methods proposed for
making inference on the intrinsic dimension of point cloud data
sampled from a low-dimensional structure embedded in a
high–dimensional ambient space, and then I will describe a Bayesian
solution based on a composite likelihood built under working
independence assumptions suggested by MacKay and Ghahramani. In order
to get a posterior with approximately correct asymptotic behavior and
curvature, I will consider some options to calibrate this
pseudolikelihood and then compare in simulated and real examples a
standard MCMC method against a variation of the default Bayesian
framework of Ventura et al. (2013) (joint work with Alessandro
Lanteri).
Cordiali saluti
