Estimation of Discrete Partially Directed Acyclic Graphical Models in Multitype Branching Processes
Résumé
We address the inference of discrete-state models for tree-structured data. Our aim is to introduce parametric multitype branching processes that can be efficiently estimated on the basis of data of limited size. Each generation distribution within this macroscopic model is modeled by a partially directed acyclic graphical model. The estimation of each graphical model relies on a greedy algorithm for graph selection. We present an algorithm for discrete graphical model which is applied on multivariate count data. The proposed modeling approach is illustrated on plant architecture datasets.
