gtm_bi

Calculate an initial value for beta.

The value is calculated from the average distance between the nearest neighbours in Y, the centres of the constrained Gaussian mixture generated in the target space from latent sample.

Synopsis

beta = gtm_bi(Y)

Arguments

Y - a matrix containing the positions of the centres of the Gaussian mixture induced in target space from the latent variable samples.

Return

beta - an initial value for the inverse variance of the Gaussian mixture
