Twenty-two soil samples were taken from 11 main tobacco-growing areas in Guizhou Province in China and the soil water characteristic curves (SWCC) and basic physical and chemical properties of the soil samples were determined. The results show that: (1) The soil bulk density, soil total porosity and soil capillary porosity have significant effects on SWC of tobacco fiels. Bulk density and total porosity are positively correlated with soil water retention characteristics (SWRC), and soil capillary porosity is positively correlated with soil water supply characteristics (SWSC). (2) Soil samples from different soil layers at the same soil sampling point show similarity or consistency in SWC. Inadequate soil water supply capability and imbalance between SWRC and SWSC are problems of tobacco soil. (3) The SWC of loamy clay are generally superior to those of silty clay loam.展开更多

The mapping function of spectral vectors of the source and target speakers is calculated by the Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA) estimation based on Gaussian mixture models. Since the spectral envelope feature remains a majority of second order statistical information contained in speech after Linear Prediction Coding (LPC) analysis, the CCA method is more suitable for spectral conversion than Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) because CCA explicitly considers the variance of each component of the spectral vectors during conversion procedure. Both objective evaluations and subjective listening tests are conducted. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed scheme can achieve better per- formance than the previous method which uses MMSE estimation criterion.展开更多

The main analysis is carried out through the software SPSS with the data on the level of towns and townships in 1992. The results indicate that landuse structure is determined by comprehensive action of different factors. Landuse structure with rural characteristics is mainly determined by geographical factors such as the elevation, temperature and precipitation, while the landuse structure with urban characteristics is mainly determined by demographic and socioeconomic conditions. At the same time, tests were carried out through the canonical correlation coefficient and redundancy analysis.展开更多

However, classical CCA is unsupervised and does not take discriminant information into account. In this paper, we add discriminant information into CCA by using random cross- view correlations between within-class samples and propose a new method for multi-view dimensionality reduction called canonical random correlation analysis (RCA). In RCA, two approaches for randomly generating cross-view correlation samples are developed on the basis of bootstrap technique. Furthermore, kernel RCA (KRCA) is proposed to extract nonlinear correlations between different views. Experiments on several multi-view data sets show the effectiveness of the proposed methods.展开更多

The result shows that the convergence rate only depends on two parameters:the rate of regularization parameter and the decay rate of eigenvalues of compact operator VY X,and it gives better understanding of kernel CCA.展开更多

The scores of job burnout were compared among the nurses with different titles, and less achievement (F = 8.342, P < 0.001) and depersonalization (F = 3.12, P = 0.025) were statistically significant. Nurses’ Job Burnout and job stressors were the first, and the canonical correlation coefficient was 0.4397 (F = 20.54, P < 0.0001), indicating that the more problems existed in patient care, the greater the degree of emotional exhaustion. The first canonical correlation coefficient of job burnout and job satisfaction of nurses was 0.3791 (F = 12.8, P < 0.0001), indicating that the better the family and work balance, the less individualized nurses were. The path analysis results showed that the 4 dimensions of job stressors (management and interpersonal problems) is positive, the direct effect of the strongest (0.219), the total effect of sort of work pressure source of 4 dimensions (0.245) > 5 dimensions of work pressure source (0.125) > title (<span style="white-space:nowrap;"><span style="white-space:nowrap;">−</span></span>0.112) job satisfaction scores (<span style="white-space:nowrap;"><span style="white-space:nowrap;">−</span></span>0.097). <strong>Conclusion:</strong> Job stress, job satisfaction and job title are the factors that affect job burnout. The 4 and the direct and indirect effects of job stressors are the strongest, and measures should be taken to solve these problems.展开更多

In real applications, for example in bilingual text retrieval, it may have a great portion of data that we do not know which set it belongs to. This part of data is called unlabeled data, while the rest from definite datasets is called labeled data. We propose a novel method called regularized canonical correlation analysis (RCCA), which makes use of both labeled and unlabeled samples. Specifically, we learn to approximate canonical correlation as if all data were labeled. Then, we describe a generalization of RCCA for the multi-set situation. Experiments on four real world datasets, Yeast, Cloud, Iris, and Haberman, demonstrate that, by incorporating the unlabeled data points, the accuracy of correlation coefficients can be improved by over 30%.展开更多

The aim of this paper is three-fold: to present a theoretical review of some of the well known linear inferential modeling techniques, to enhance the predictive ability of the regularized canonical correlation analysis (RCCA) method, and finally to compare the performances of these techniques and highlight some of the practical issues that can affect their predictive abilities. The inferential modeling techniques considered in this study include full rank modeling techniques, such as ordinary least square (OLS) regression and ridge regression (RR), and latent variable regression (LVR) techniques, such as principal component regression (PCR), partial least squares (PLS) regression, and regularized canonical correlation analysis (RCCA). The theoretical analysis shows that the loading vectors used in LVR modeling can be computed by solving eigenvalue problems. Also, for the RCCA method, we show that by optimizing the regularization parameter, an improvement in prediction accuracy can be achieved over other modeling techniques. To illustrate the performances of all inferential modeling techniques, a comparative analysis was performed through two simulated examples, one using synthetic data and the other using simulated distillation column data. All techniques are optimized and compared by computing the cross validation mean square error using unseen testing data. The results of this comparative analysis show that scaling the data helps improve the performances of all modeling techniques, and that the LVR techniques outperform the full rank ones. One reason for this advantage is that the LVR techniques improve the conditioning of the model by discarding the latent variables (or principal components) with small eigenvalues, which also reduce the effect of the noise on the model prediction. The results also show that PCR and PLS have comparable performances, and that RCCA can provide an advantage by optimizing its regularization parameter.展开更多

文摘<strong>Objective:</strong> To understand the influencing factors of job burnout among nurses in Haikou 3A hospital and explore its direct and indirect effects, so as to provide a scientific basis for the work efficiency of nursing staff. <strong>Methods:</strong> Between November 2, 2015 and November 2015, using multi stage random sampling, self-administered questionnaire survey was conducted among 1049 nursing staff, using the path analysis method to study the effect of direct and indirect factors effect. <strong>Results:</strong> The total score of job burnout of nurses was 38.44 ± 7.55, high occupational burnout was 0.9%, moderate occupational burnout was 66.5%, and low occupational burnout was 32.6%. The scores of job burnout were compared among the nurses with different titles, and less achievement (F = 8.342, P < 0.001) and depersonalization (F = 3.12, P = 0.025) were statistically significant. Nurses’ Job Burnout and job stressors were the first, and the canonical correlation coefficient was 0.4397 (F = 20.54, P < 0.0001), indicating that the more problems existed in patient care, the greater the degree of emotional exhaustion. The first canonical correlation coefficient of job burnout and job satisfaction of nurses was 0.3791 (F = 12.8, P < 0.0001), indicating that the better the family and work balance, the less individualized nurses were. The path analysis results showed that the 4 dimensions of job stressors (management and interpersonal problems) is positive, the direct effect of the strongest (0.219), the total effect of sort of work pressure source of 4 dimensions (0.245) > 5 dimensions of work pressure source (0.125) > title (<span style="white-space:nowrap;"><span style="white-space:nowrap;">−</span></span>0.112) job satisfaction scores (<span style="white-space:nowrap;"><span style="white-space:nowrap;">−</span></span>0.097). <strong>Conclusion:</strong> Job stress, job satisfaction and job title are the factors that affect job burnout. The 4 and the direct and indirect effects of job stressors are the strongest, and measures should be taken to solve these problems.

文摘In standard canonical correlation analysis (CCA), the data from definite datasets are used to estimate their canonical correlation. In real applications, for example in bilingual text retrieval, it may have a great portion of data that we do not know which set it belongs to. This part of data is called unlabeled data, while the rest from definite datasets is called labeled data. We propose a novel method called regularized canonical correlation analysis (RCCA), which makes use of both labeled and unlabeled samples. Specifically, we learn to approximate canonical correlation as if all data were labeled. Then, we describe a generalization of RCCA for the multi-set situation. Experiments on four real world datasets, Yeast, Cloud, Iris, and Haberman, demonstrate that, by incorporating the unlabeled data points, the accuracy of correlation coefficients can be improved by over 30%.
文摘Inferential models are widely used in the chemical industry to infer key process variables, which are challenging or expensive to measure, from other more easily measured variables. The aim of this paper is three-fold: to present a theoretical review of some of the well known linear inferential modeling techniques, to enhance the predictive ability of the regularized canonical correlation analysis (RCCA) method, and finally to compare the performances of these techniques and highlight some of the practical issues that can affect their predictive abilities. The inferential modeling techniques considered in this study include full rank modeling techniques, such as ordinary least square (OLS) regression and ridge regression (RR), and latent variable regression (LVR) techniques, such as principal component regression (PCR), partial least squares (PLS) regression, and regularized canonical correlation analysis (RCCA). The theoretical analysis shows that the loading vectors used in LVR modeling can be computed by solving eigenvalue problems. Also, for the RCCA method, we show that by optimizing the regularization parameter, an improvement in prediction accuracy can be achieved over other modeling techniques. To illustrate the performances of all inferential modeling techniques, a comparative analysis was performed through two simulated examples, one using synthetic data and the other using simulated distillation column data. All techniques are optimized and compared by computing the cross validation mean square error using unseen testing data. The results of this comparative analysis show that scaling the data helps improve the performances of all modeling techniques, and that the LVR techniques outperform the full rank ones. One reason for this advantage is that the LVR techniques improve the conditioning of the model by discarding the latent variables (or principal components) with small eigenvalues, which also reduce the effect of the noise on the model prediction. The results also show that PCR and PLS have comparable performances, and that RCCA can provide an advantage by optimizing its regularization parameter.

文摘The radial contraction-expansion motion paradigm is a novel steady-state visual evoked experimental paradigm,and the electroencephalography(EEG)evoked potential is different from the traditional luminance modulation paradigm.The signal energy is concentrated chiefly in the fundamental frequency,while the higher harmonic power is lower.Therefore,the conventional steady-state visual evoked potential recognition algorithms optimizing multiple harmonic response components,such as the extended canonical correlation analysis(eCCA)and task-related component analysis(TRCA)algorithm,have poor recognition performance under the radial contraction-expansion motion paradigm.This paper proposes an extended binary subband canonical correlation analysis(eBSCCA)algorithm for the radial contraction-expansion motion paradigm.For the radial contraction-expansion motion paradigm,binary subband filtering was used to optimize the weighting coefficients of different frequency response signals,thereby improving the recognition performance of EEG signals.The results of offline experiments involving 13 subjects showed that the eBSCCA algorithm exhibits a better performance than the eCCA and TRCA algorithms under the stimulation of the radial contraction-expansion motion paradigm.In the online experiment,the average recognition accuracy of 13 subjects was 88.68%±6.33%,and the average information transmission rate(ITR)was 158.77±43.67 bits/min,which proved that the algorithm had good recognition effect signals evoked by the radial contraction-expansion motion paradigm.
