Workshop
Iterative Scaling Algorithms and their Applications
- Carlotta Langer (Martin-Luther-Universität Halle)
Abstract
Iterative scaling is a widely used method to solve maximum entropy problems.
There are many variant iterative scaling algorithms. In order to reconnect two often-used iterative scaling algorithms, my bachelor thesis categorizes the different types of algorithms and analyses their relations. Four different implemented algorithms are used to study and compare their convergence behaviour.
