Beta-Liouville and Inverted Beta-Liouville Based Predictive Models for Occupancy Detection using Small Training Data
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In this paper, we propose two predictive models based on Beta-Liouville (BL) and inverted Beta-Liouville (IBL) mixture models. The choice of the BL and IBL mixture models is motivated by their flexibility. The proposed predictive models are dedicated to classification tasks where the training datasets are non-Gaussian and small which is generally the case in real-life scenarios. A principled variational approach is proposed to learn the proposed models. Extensive experimental results based on both synthetic data and a real application that concerns occupancy detection in smart buildings prove that our predictive framework achieves promising results especially with extremely small training data sets.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
