Research Abstract |
We propose an accelerated version of the holonomic gradient descent and apply it to calculating the maximum likelihood estimate (MLE) of the Fisher-Bingham distribution on a d-dimensional sphere. These enable us to solve some MLE problems up to dimension d=7 with a specified accuracy. The Fisher-Bingham system is a system of linear partial differential equations satisfied by the Fisher-Bingham integral for the n-dimensional sphere. We show that the holonomic rank of the system is equal to 2n+2. We derive Groebner bases for Lauricella's hypergeometric differential equations with respect to a monomial order. By using these Groebner bases, we determine characteristic varieties and the singular loci of these differential equations.
