Likelihood Geometry of Determinantal Point Processes
Abstract
We study determinantal point processes (DPP) through the lens of algebraic statistics. We count the critical points of the log-likelihood function, and we compute them for small models, thereby disproving a conjecture of Brunel, Moitra, Rigollet and Urschel.
