Analysis of ordered categorical data from repeated measurements assuming a quantitative latent variable

Summary The purpose of the present paper is to propose an analytical method for ordered categorical responses obtained from a repeated measurement/longitudinal experiment. The ordered categorical scale is assumed to be a manifestation of a latent quantitative variable. A linear model is assumed for location parameters of the underlying distributions. Weighted least square method is applied to parameter estimation and subsequent analysis. Two data sets are analyzed to show several aspects of analysis by the proposed model and to discuss comparative characteristics of analysis compared with earlier analysis. A mention is made for a computer software program for the proposed model.     

A Test of Multivariate Independence Based on a Single Factor Model

A test of the independence of two sets of variables is developed to have high power against a special family of dependence. In this each set of variables has the structure of a single factor model and the dependence is solely via the correlation γ between the underlying latent variables. This is a model with only one nonzero canonical correlation. It is shown that a test based on the maximum likelihood estimate of γ is appreciably more powerful than that based on r₁, the largest sample canonical correlation. If, however, the model is used, not just as a family of alternatives but as the basis for interpretation, and if substantial cross-correlation is present then the procedure is essentially equivalent to the use of r₁.

Semantic-Oriented Knowledge Transfer for Review Rating

With the rapid development of Web 2.0, more and more people are sharing their opinions about online products, so there is much product review data. However, it is difficult to compare products directly using ratings because many ratings are based on different scales or ratings are even missing. This paper addresses the following question: given textual reviews, how can we automatically determine the semantic orientations of reviewers and then rank different items? Due to the absence of ratings in many reviews, it is difficult to collect sufficient rating data for certain specific categories of products (e.g., movies), but it is easier to find rating data in another different but related category (e.g., books). We refer to this problem as transfer rating, and try to train a better ranking model for items in the interested category with the help of rating data from another related category. Specifically, we developed a ranking-oriented method called TRate for determining the semantic orientations and for ranking different items and formulated it in a regularized algorithm for rating knowledge transfer by bridging the two related categories via a shared latent semantic space. Tests on the Epinion dataset verified its effectiveness.     

Application of enthalpy method for moving boundary problem in laser surface melting

A numerical analysis was carried out to study the moving boundary problem in the physical process of pulsed Nd-YAG laser surface melting prior to vaporization. The enthalpy method was applied to solve this two-phase axisymmetrical melting problem. Computational results of temperature fields were obtained, which provide useful information to practical laser treatment processing. The validity of enthalpy method in solving such problems is pressented. Supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China and the Chinese Academy of Sciences
