title = "ONLINE LEARNING FOR LATENT YULE-SIMON PROCESSES",
abstract = "Yule-Simon processes are one of the most commonly occurring processes in Nature. These processes generate power laws using a preferential attachment mechanism which can describe a variety of data distributions such as word frequencies, scientific citations, journal publications, income, node connections in complex networks, biological genera, and bosons in quantum states. Much of the work in this area has focused on modeling the properties of observable quantities such as these. In this work we focus on learning the properties of unobservable Yule-Simon processes which control the dynamics of sequential sensor measurements. This is motivated by the fact that Yule-Simon processes have a varying memory length which offer a more general framework for data modeling than hidden Markov models. In this paper we present an approximate online learning procedure based on multiple hypothesis pruning which is shown to reach 0.5dB of the posterior Cramer-Rao lower bound.",
