New SGMoE framework offers consistent expert selection

Researchers have developed a new statistical framework for Gaussian mixture of experts (SGMoE) models that addresses challenges in parameter estimation and model selection. The framework introduces novel loss functions and establishes convergence rates for maximum likelihood estimators, linking them to polynomial equation systems. For model selection, a dendrogram-based approach is proposed, which consistently identifies the number of experts without requiring multi-size training and demonstrates robustness to model misspecification.
