Book Nonlinear Principal Component Analysis and Its Applications

Download or read book Nonlinear Principal Component Analysis and Its Applications written by Yuichi Mori and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-12-09 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book expounds the principle and related applications of nonlinear principal component analysis (PCA), which is useful method to analyze mixed measurement levels data. In the part dealing with the principle, after a brief introduction of ordinary PCA, a PCA for categorical data (nominal and ordinal) is introduced as nonlinear PCA, in which an optimal scaling technique is used to quantify the categorical variables. The alternating least squares (ALS) is the main algorithm in the method. Multiple correspondence analysis (MCA), a special case of nonlinear PCA, is also introduced. All formulations in these methods are integrated in the same manner as matrix operations. Because any measurement levels data can be treated consistently as numerical data and ALS is a very powerful tool for estimations, the methods can be utilized in a variety of fields such as biometrics, econometrics, psychometrics, and sociology. In the applications part of the book, four applications are introduced: variable selection for mixed measurement levels data, sparse MCA, joint dimension reduction and clustering methods for categorical data, and acceleration of ALS computation. The variable selection methods in PCA that originally were developed for numerical data can be applied to any types of measurement levels by using nonlinear PCA. Sparseness and joint dimension reduction and clustering for nonlinear data, the results of recent studies, are extensions obtained by the same matrix operations in nonlinear PCA. Finally, an acceleration algorithm is proposed to reduce the problem of computational cost in the ALS iteration in nonlinear multivariate methods. This book thus presents the usefulness of nonlinear PCA which can be applied to different measurement levels data in diverse fields. As well, it covers the latest topics including the extension of the traditional statistical method, newly proposed nonlinear methods, and computational efficiency in the methods.

Book Principal Component Analysis

Download or read book Principal Component Analysis written by I.T. Jolliffe and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Principal component analysis is probably the oldest and best known of the It was first introduced by Pearson (1901), techniques ofmultivariate analysis. and developed independently by Hotelling (1933). Like many multivariate methods, it was not widely used until the advent of electronic computers, but it is now weIl entrenched in virtually every statistical computer package. The central idea of principal component analysis is to reduce the dimen sionality of a data set in which there are a large number of interrelated variables, while retaining as much as possible of the variation present in the data set. This reduction is achieved by transforming to a new set of variables, the principal components, which are uncorrelated, and which are ordered so that the first few retain most of the variation present in all of the original variables. Computation of the principal components reduces to the solution of an eigenvalue-eigenvector problem for a positive-semidefinite symmetrie matrix. Thus, the definition and computation of principal components are straightforward but, as will be seen, this apparently simple technique has a wide variety of different applications, as weIl as a number of different deri vations. Any feelings that principal component analysis is a narrow subject should soon be dispelled by the present book; indeed some quite broad topics which are related to principal component analysis receive no more than a brief mention in the final two chapters.

Book Variable Selection in Nonlinear Principal Component Analysis

Download or read book Variable Selection in Nonlinear Principal Component Analysis written by Hiroko Katayama and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Principal components analysis (PCA) is a popular dimension reduction method and is applied to analyze quantitative data. For PCA to qualitative data, nonlinear PCA can be applied, where the data are quantified by using optimal scaling that nonlinearly transforms qualitative data into quantitative data. Then nonlinear PCA reveals nonlinear relationships among variables with different measurement levels. Using this quantification, we can consider variable selection in the context of PCA for qualitative data. In PCA for quantitative data, modified PCA (M.PCA) of Tanaka and Mori derives principal components which are computed as a linear combination of a subset of variables but can reproduce all the variables very well. This means that M.PCA can select a reasonable subset of variables with different measurement levels if it is extended so as to deal with qualitative data by using the idea of nonlinear PCA. A nonlinear M.PCA is therefore proposed for variable selection in nonlinear PCA. The method, in this chapter, is based on the idea in ,ÄúNonlinear Principal Component Analysis and its Applications,Äù by Mori et al. (Springer). The performance of the method is evaluated in a numerical example.

Book Quasi objective Nonlinear Principal Component Analysis and Applications to the Atmosphere

Download or read book Quasi objective Nonlinear Principal Component Analysis and Applications to the Atmosphere written by and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NonLinear Principal Component Analysis (NLPCA) using three-hidden-layer feed-forward neural networks can produce solutions that over-fit the data and are non-unique. These problems have been dealt with by subjective methods during the network training. This study shows that these problems are intrinsic due to the three-hidden-layer architecture. A simplified two-hidden-layer feed-forward neural network that has no encoding layer and no bottleneck and output biases is proposed. This new, compact NLPCA model alleviates these problems without employing the subjective methods and is called quasi-objective. The compact NLPCA is applied to the zonal winds observed at seven pressure levels between 10 and 70 hPa in the equatorial stratosphere to represent the Quasi-Biennial Oscillation (QBO) and investigate its variability and structure. The two nonlinear principal components of the dataset offer a clear picture of the QBO. In particular, their structure shows that the QBO phase consists of a predominant 28.4-month cycle that is modulated by an 11-year cycle and a longer-period cycle. The significant difference in variability of the winds between cold and warm seasons and the tendency for a seasonal synchronization of the QBO phases are well captured. The one-dimensional NLPCA approximation of the dataset provides a better representation of the QBO than the classical principal component analysis and a better description of the asymmetry of the QBO between westerly and easterly shear zones and between their transitions. The compact NLPCA is then applied to the Arctic Oscillation (AO) index and aforementioned zonal winds to investigate the relationship of the AO with the QBO. The NLPCA of the AO index and zonal-winds dataset shows clearly that, of covariation of the two oscillations, the phase defined by the two nonlinear principal components progresses with a predominant 28.4-month periodicity, plus the 11-year and longer-period modulations. Large positive values of the AO i.

Book Model Based Machine Learning

Download or read book Model Based Machine Learning written by John Winn and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2023-11-30 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, machine learning is being applied to a growing variety of problems in a bewildering variety of domains. A fundamental challenge when using machine learning is connecting the abstract mathematics of a machine learning technique to a concrete, real world problem. This book tackles this challenge through model-based machine learning which focuses on understanding the assumptions encoded in a machine learning system and their corresponding impact on the behaviour of the system. The key ideas of model-based machine learning are introduced through a series of case studies involving real-world applications. Case studies play a central role because it is only in the context of applications that it makes sense to discuss modelling assumptions. Each chapter introduces one case study and works through step-by-step to solve it using a model-based approach. The aim is not just to explain machine learning methods, but also showcase how to create, debug, and evolve them to solve a problem. Features: Explores the assumptions being made by machine learning systems and the effect these assumptions have when the system is applied to concrete problems. Explains machine learning concepts as they arise in real-world case studies. Shows how to diagnose, understand and address problems with machine learning systems. Full source code available, allowing models and results to be reproduced and explored. Includes optional deep-dive sections with more mathematical details on inference algorithms for the interested reader.
