2 Contents Introduce EM algorithm using the flipping coin experiment Formal definition of the EM algorithm Two toy examples Coin toss with missing data Coin toss with hidden data Applications of the EM algorithm Motif finding Baum-Welch algorithm Binning of metagenomes

3 A coin-flipping experiment θ : the probability of getting heads θ A: the probability of coin A landing on head θ B: the probability of coin B landing on head Ref: What is the expectation maximization algorithm? Nature Biotechnology 26, (2008)

4 When the identities of the coins are unknown Instead of picking up the single best guess, the EM algorithm computes probabilities for each possible completion of the missing data, using the current parameters E(H) for coin B

5 Main applications of the EM algorithm When the data indeed has missing values, due to problems with or limitations of the observation process When optimizing the likelihood function is analytically intractable but it can be simplified by assuming the existence of and values for additional but missing (or hidden) parameters.

6 The EM algorithm handles hidden data Consider a model where, for observed data x and model parameters θ: p(x θ)= z p(x,z θ). z is the hidden variable that is marginalized out Finding θ * which maximizes z p(x,z θ) is hard! The EM algorithm reduces the difficult task of optimizing log P(x; θ) into a sequence of simpler optimization subproblems. In each iteration, The EM algorithm receives parameters θ (t), and returns new parameters θ (t+1), s.t. p(x θ (t+1) ) > p(x θ (t) ).

7 In each iteration the EM algorithm does the following. E step: Calculate X The EM algorithm Q t ( ) = X z P (z x; ˆ (t) )logp(x, z; ) M step: Find ˆ (t+1) (Next iteration sets θ (t) which maximizes the Q function ˆ (t+1) and repeats). The EM update rule: ˆ (t+1) = arg max X z P (z x; ˆ (t) )logp(x, z; )

8 Convergence of the X EM algorithm X Compare the Q function and the g function Q t ( ) = X z g t ( ) = X z P (z x; ˆ (t) )logp(x, z; ) P (z x; ˆ (t) P (x, z; ) )log P (z x; ˆ (t) ) Fig. 1 Fig 1 demonstrates the convergence of the EM algorithm. Starting from initial parameters (t), the E-step of the EM algorithm constructs a function g t that lower-bounds the objective function logp(x; ) (i.e.,g t apple logp(x; ); and g t (ˆ (t) )=logp(x; ˆ (t) ). In the M-step, (t+1) is computed as the maximum of g t. In the next E-step, a new lower-bound g t+1 is constructed; maximization of g t+1 in the next M-step gives (t+2),etc. As the value of the lower-bound g t matches the objective function at ˆ (t), if follows that logp(x; ˆ (t) )=g t (ˆ (t) ) apple g t (ˆ (t+1) = logp(x; ˆ (t+1) ) (2) So the objective function monotonically increases during each iteration of expectation maximization! Ref: Nature Biotechnology 26, (2008)

9 The EM update rule ˆ (t+1) = arg max X z P (z x; ˆ (t) )logp(x, z; ) The EM update rule maximizes the log likelihood of a dataset expanded to contain all possible completions of the unobserved variables, where each completion is weighted by the posterior probability!

10 Coin toss with missing data Given a coin with two possible outcomes: H (head) and T (tail), with probabilities θ and 1-θ, respectively. The coin is tossed twice, but only the 1 st outcome, T, is seen. So the data is x = (T,*) (with incomplete data!) We wish to apply the EM algorithm to get parameters that increase the likelihood of the data. Let the initial parameters be θ = ¼.

11 The EM algorithm P at work Q t ( t ) = X P (z x; t )logp(x, z; ) z = P (z1 x; t )logp(x, z1; )+P (z2 x; t )logp(x, z2; ) = P (z1 x; t )logp(z1; )+P (z2 x; t )logp(z2; ) = P (z1 x; t )log[ n H(z1) (1 ) n T (z1) ]+P (z2 x; t )log[ n H(z2) (1 ) n T (z2) ] = P (z1 x; t )[n H (z1)log + n T (z1)log(1 )] + P (z2 x; t )[n H (z2)log + n T (z2)log(1 )] = [P (z1 x; t )n H (z1) + P (z2 x; t )n H (z2)]log +[P (z1 x; t )n T (z1) + P (z2 x; t )n T (z2)]log(1 ) ere n H n(z1) H = P (z1 x; is the t )n H (z1) number + P (z2 x; t )n H of (z2) heads n T = in P (z1 x; z1 t )n (i.e., T (z1) + T, P (z2 x; T), t )n T an (z2) n H log + n T log(1 ) is maximized when = n H t t P (x; t )=P (z1; t )+P (z2; t )=(1 t ) 2 +(1 t ) = 3/4 P (z1 x; ) = P (x, z1; t )/P (x; t )=(1 t ) 2 /P (x; t )= P (z2 x; t )=1 P (z1 x; t )=1/4 3/4 3/4 3/4 n H (z1) = 0, n T (z1) = 2, n H (z2) = 1, and n T (z2) = 1. Inputs: Observation: x=(t,*) Hidden data: z1=(t,t) z2=(t,h) Initial guess: θ t = ¼ =3/4 n H +n T

12 The EM algorithm at work: continue Initial guess θ = ¼ After one iteration θ = 1/8 The optimal parameter θ will never be reached by the EM algorithm!

13 Coin toss with hidden data Two coins A and B, with parameters θ={θ A, θ B }; compute θ that maximizes the log likelihood of the observed data x={x 1,x 2,..x 5 } E.g., initial parameter θ: θ A =0.60, θ B =0.50 (x 1, x 2,..x 5 are independent observations) P (z 1 = A x; t ) = P (z 1 = A x 1 ; t ) = = P (z 1 = A, x 1 ; t ) P (z 1 = A, x 1 ; t )+P(z 1 = B,x 1 ; t ) =0.58 Coin A observation n H n T P(A) P(B) n H n T n H n T B x1: HTTTHHTHTH x2: HHHHTHHHHH x3: HTHHHHHTHH x4: HTHTTTHHTT x5: THHHTHHHTH H 8.4T 9.7H 7.6T New parameter: θ A =24.3/( )=0.74, θ B =9.7/( )=0.56

14 Motif finding problem Motif finding problem is not that different from the coin toss problem! Probabilistic approaches to motif finding EM Gibbs sampling (a generalized EM algorithm) There are also combinatorial approaches

16 The MEME algorithm Collect all substrings with the same length w from the input sequences: X = (X 1,,X n ) Treat sequences as bags of subsequences: a bag for motif, and a bag for background Need to figure out two models (one for motif, and one for the background), and assign each of the subsequences to one of the bags, such that the likelihood of the data (subsequences) is maximized Difficult problem Solved by the EM algorithm

18 Fitting a mixture model by EM A finite mixture model: data X = (X 1,,X n ) arises from two or more groups with g models q = (q 1,, q g ). Indicator vectors Z = (Z 1,,Z n ), where Z i = (Z i1,,z ig ), and Z ij = 1 if X i is from group j, and = 0 otherwise. P(Z ij = 1 q j ) = l j. For any given i, all Z ij are 0 except one j; g=2: class 1 (the motif) and class 2 (the background) are given by position specific and a general multinomial distribution

19 The E- and M-step E-step: Since the log likelihood is the sum of over i and j of terms multiplying Z ij, and these are independent across i, we need only consider the expectation of one such, given X i. Using initial parameter values q and l, and the fact that the Z ij are binary, we get E(Z ij X,q,l )=l j P(X i q j )/ k l k P(X i q k )=Z ij M-step: The maximization over l is independent of the rest and is readily achieved with l j = i Z ij / n.
