Problem 1: Expectation Maximization for Colorings (40 pts)
For this problem, we will use the same factorization as we have in past assignments. As on the
previous assignment, the weights will now be considered parameters of the model that need to be
learned from samples.
Suppose that some of the vertices, L ⊆ V , are latent variables in the model. Given m samples
of the observed variables in V L, what is the log-likelihood as a function of the weights? Perform
MLE using the EM algorithm. Your solution should be written as a MATLAB function that takes
as input an n × n matrix A corresponding to the adjacency matrix of a graph G, an n-dimensional
binary vector L whose non-zero entries correspond to the latent variables, and samples which is an
n × m k-ary matrix where samplesi,t corresponds to observed color for vertex i in the t
th sample
(you should discard any inputs related to the latent variables). The output should be the vector of
weights w corresponding to the MLE parameters for each color from the EM algorithm. Note that
you should use belief propagation to approximate the counting problem in the E-step.
function w = colorem(A, L, samples)
Problem 2: EM for Bayesian Networks (60pts)
For this problem, you will use the house-votes-84.data data set provided with this problem set.
Each row of the provided data file corresponds to a single observation of a voting record for a
congressperson: the first entry is party affiliation and the remaining entries correspond to votes on
different legislation with question marks denoting missing data.
1. Using the first three features and the first 300 data observations only, fit a Bayesian network
to this data using the EM algorithm for each of the eight possible complete DAGs over three
variables.
2. Do different runs of the EM algorithm produce different models?
3. Evaluate your eight models, on the data that was not used for training, for the task of
predicting party affiliation given the values of the other two features. Is the prediction highly
