The effect of these iterations is to generate sequences of paired distribu-

Minimization (GAM) procedures family for which convergence results are
available [6].
We then derive two equivalent expressions of F when q factorizes as in
˜
D
. Expression (1) of F can be rewritten as F ( q, θ )= E q [log p ( T
|
S , y )] +
E q [log p ( S , y
|
θ )] + I [ q ]. Then,
F ( q T
q S )= E q T [ E q S [log p ( T
|
S , y )]] + E q S [log p ( S , y
|
θ )] + I [ q T
q S ]
= E q T [ E q S [log p ( T
|
S , y )]] + I [ q T ]+ G [ q S ] ,
where G [ q S ]= E q S [log p ( S , y
θ )] + I [ q S ] is an expression that does not depend
on q T . Using the symmetry in T and S , it is easy to show that similarly,
|
F ( q T
q S )= E q S [ E q T [log p ( S
|
T , y )]] + E q T [log p ( T , y
|
θ )] + I [ q T
q S ]
T , y )]] + I [ q S ]+ G [ q T ] ,
= E q S [ E q T [log p ( S
|
where G [ q T ]= E q T [log p ( T , y
θ )] + I [ q T ] is an expression that does not depend
on q S . It follows that the E-T and E-S steps reduce to,

and the M-step θ ( r +1) =argmax

More generally, we adopt in addition, an incremental EM approach [6] which
allows re-estimation of the parameters (here θ ) to be performed based only on
a sub-part of the hidden variables. This means that we incorporate an M-step
(5) in between the updating of q T
E q ( r T q ( r )
S
[log p ( θ

and q S . Similarly, hyperparameters could be
updated there too.
It appears in equations (6), (7) and (5) that for inference the specification
of the three conditional distributions p ( t

s , y ), p ( s
|
t , y )and p ( θ
|
t , s , y )is
necessary and sucient.

Then, steps E-T and E-S have to be further specified by computing the expec-
tations with regards to q ( r− 1)
S
and q ( r )

. Using the structure conditional model
