Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Learning with dataset which contains both labeled data and unlabeled data
is often called semi-supervised learning problem.
In the last decade,
semi-supervised learning problem has become one of the important
research problems in many fields.
This article presents a novel semi-supervised learning scheme
using Bayesian Maximum A Posteriori Expectation Maximization (MAP-EM)
algorithm with Dirichlet process prior (stick-breaking
representation).
The proposed scheme enables us to estimate mixture model under unknown
number of components
and provides a simpler implementation than other implementations such
as Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) implementations.
Two examples of Gaussian mixture are examined to validate the proposed scheme.
