ABSTRACT:
A method for compressing multiple dimensional gaussian distributions with diagonal covariance matrixes includes clustering a plurality of gaussian distributions in a multiplicity of clusters for each dimension. Each cluster can be represented by a centroid having a mean and a variance. A total decrease in likelihood of a training dataset is minimized for the representation of the plurality of gaussian distributions.
