Partial Influence Functions

In this paper we extend the definition of the influence function to functionals of more than one distribution, that is, for estimators depending on more than one sample, such as the pooled variance, the pooled covariance matrix, and the linear discriminant analysis coefficients. In this case the appropriate designation should be “partial influence functions,” following the analogy with derivatives and partial derivatives. Some useful results are derived, such as an asymptotic variance formula. These results are then applied to several estimators of the Mahalanobis distance between two populations and the linear discriminant function coefficients.     

Asymptotic distribution of the discriminant function

Linear Discrimination with Adaptive Ridge Classification Rules

This article considers the use of adaptive ridge classification rules for classifying an observation as coming from one of two multivariate normal distributionsN(μ⁽¹⁾, Σ) andN(μ⁽²⁾, Σ). In particular, the asymptotic expected error rates for a general class of these rules are obtained and are compared with that of the usual linear discriminant rule.

Exact Misclassification Probabilities for Plug-In Normal Quadratic Discriminant Functions: II. The Heterogeneous Case

We consider the problem of discriminating between two independent multivariate normal populations, N_p(μ₁, Σ₁) and N_p(μ₂, Σ₂), having distinct mean vectors μ₁ and μ₂ and distinct covariance matrices Σ₁ and Σ₂. The parameters μ₁, μ₂, Σ₁, and Σ₂ are unknown and are estimated by means of independent random training samples from each population. We derive a stochastic representation for the exact distribution of the “plug-in” quadratic discriminant function for classifying a new observation between the two populations. The stochastic representation involves only the classical standard normal, chi-square, and F distributions and is easily implemented for simulation purposes. Using Monte Carlo simulation of the stochastic representation we provide applications to the estimation of misclassification probabilities for the well-known iris data studied by Fisher (Ann. Eugen.7 (1936), 179–188); a data set on corporate financial ratios provided by Johnson and Wichern (Applied Multivariate Statistical Analysis, 4th ed., Prentice–Hall, Englewood Cliffs, NJ, 1998); and a data set analyzed by Reaven and Miller (Diabetologia16 (1979), 17–24) in a classification of diabetic status.

The Covariance Adjusted Location Linear Discriminant Function for Classifying Data with Unequal Dispersion Matrices in Different Locations

Classification between two populations dealing with both continuous and binary variables is handled by splitting the problem into different locations. Given the location specified by the values of the binary variables, discrimination is performed using the continuous variables. The location probability model with homoscedastic across location conditional dispersion matrices is adopted for this problem. In this paper, we consider presence of continuous covariates with heterogeneous location conditional dispersion matrices. The continuous covariates have equal location specific mean in both populations. Conditional homoscedasticity fails when strong interaction between the continuous and binary variables is present. A plug-in covariance adjusted rule is constructed and its asymptotic distribution is derived. An asymptotic expansion for the overall error rate is given. The result is extended to include binary covariates.

Second-order expansion for the expected regret risk in classification of one-parametric distributions

The plug-in rule is used for the classification of random observations into one of two regular one-parametric distributions. The maximum likelihood estimates of unknown parameters obtained from the stratified training sample are used. The second-order asymptotic expansion in terms of the inverses of the training sample sizes is derived for the expected regret risk. The closed-form expressions of the expansion coefficients are applicable for the performance evaluation of the proposed classification rule. Klaipėda University, H.

The consistency of multicategory support vector machines

The goal of classification (or pattern recognition) is to construct a classifier with small misclassification error. The notions of consistency and universal consistency are important to the construction of classification rules. A consistent rule guarantees us that taking more samples essentially suffices to roughly reconstruct the unknown distribution. Support vector machine (SVM) algorithm is one of the most important rules in two category classification. How to effectively extend the SVM for multicategory classification is still an on-going research issue. Different versions of multicategory support vector machines (MSVMs) have been proposed and used in practice. We study the one designed by Lee, Lin and Wahba with hinge loss functional. The consistency of MSVMs is established under a mild condition. As a corollary, the universal consistency holds true if the reproducing kernel Hilbert space is dense in C norm. In addition, an example is given to demonstrate the main results.

The Cauchy Transform of Continuous Linear Functionals and Projections on the Weighted Spaces of Analytic Functions

Under some general assumptions on weight, we give a complete characterization of the Cauchy transform of continuous linear functionals on the weighted spaces of holomorphic functions in a ball. We construct an integral projection that sends the weighted spaces of measurable and n-harmonic functions in the ball onto the corresponding spaces of holomorphic functions.     

基于Kernel Discriminant Canonical Correlation(KDCC)的多观测样本分类算法

针对多观测样本分类问题,提出一种基于Kernel Discriminant CanonicalCorrelation(KDCC)来实现多观测样本分类的模型.该算法首先把原空间样本非线性的投影到高维特征空间,通过KPCA得到核子空间,然后在高维特征空间定义一个使类内核子空间的相关性最大,同时使类间核子空间的相关性最小的KDCC矩阵,通过迭代法训练出最优的KDCC矩阵,把每个核子空间投影到KDCC矩阵上得到转换核子空间,采用典型相关性作为转换核子空间之间的相似性度量,并采用最近邻准则作为多观测样本的分类决策,从而实现多观测样本的分类.在三个数据库上进行了一系列实验,实验结果表明提出的方法对于多观测样本分类具有可行性和有效性.
