New preprint 'Minimum bounding polytropes for estimation of max-linear Bayesian networks'

Nov 11, 2025 ■ Kamillo Ferry ■ polyhedral-geometry combinatorics triangulations MLBN

My paper on a geometric analysis of the (generalized) maximum likelihood estimator for MLBNs just dropped on the arXiv. This goes into minimum bounding polytropes of finite sets of points and I raise a fun little question about set coverings of the dual regular subdivisions.
