Though extensive studies have been performed for generalized linear models, little has been done for support vector machines （SVMs）, one of the most successful approaches for supervised learning. This paper presents dropout training for both linear SVMs and the nonlinear extension with latent representation learning. For linear SVMs, to deal with the intractable expectation of the non-smooth hinge loss under corrupting distributions, we develop an iteratively re-weighted least square （IRLS） algorithm by exploring data augmentation techniques. Our algorithm iteratively minimizes the expectation of a re- weighted least square problem, where the re-weights are analytically updated. For nonlinear latent SVMs, we con- sider learning one layer of latent representations in SVMs and extend the data augmentation technique in conjunction with first-order Taylor-expansion to deal with the intractable expected hinge loss and the nonlinearity of latent representa- tions. Finally, we apply the similar data augmentation ideas to develop a new IRLS algorithm for the expected logistic loss under corrupting distributions, and we further develop a non-linear extension of logistic regression by incorporating one layer of latent representations. Our algorithms offer insights on the connection and difference between the hinge loss and logistic loss in dropout training. Empirical results on several real datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of dropout training on significantly boosting the classification accuracy of both linear and nonlinear SVMs.展开更多

A multifactorial correlation analysis was performed for data analysis.RESULTS: After adjustingfor potentialconfoundingvariables,intheEHgroup,AIwaspositivelycorrelated with t5, w2/t(rt5=0.225, P<0.05; rw2/t=0.230, P<0.05)and negatively correlated with h5,h5/h1 and w2(rh5=﹣0.393,P<0.01;rh5/h1=﹣0.444,P<0.01;rw2=﹣0.389,P<0.01). In the control group, AI was positively correlated with t3, t4, t5 and w1(rt3=0.595, P<0.01; rt4=0.292, P<0.05; rt5=0.318, P<0.05; rw1=0.541, P<0.01)and negatively correlated with h1,h2,h3,AdandA(rh1=﹣0.368,P<0.05;rh2=﹣0.330,P<0.05;rh3=﹣0.327, P<0.05; rAd=﹣0.322, P<0.05; rA=﹣0.410, P<0.01). In the total sample group(EH plus control group, n=138), AI was positively correlated with t, t5, w1 and w2/t(rt=0.257,P<0.01;rt5=0.266,P<0.01;rw1=0.184,P<0.05; rw2/t=0.210, P<0.05) and negatively correlated with h5, h5/h1, w2 and Ad(rh5=﹣0.230, P<0.01; rh5/h1=﹣0.218, P<0.05; rw2=﹣0.267, P<0.01; rAd=﹣0.246,P<0.01). Multiple linear regression analysis was carried out to model the relationship(F=7.887, P<0.001).CONCLUSION:Renying pulse AI can effectively predict arterial stiffness in synchrony with the manifestations of Cunkou pulse in elderly patients with hypertension. Cunkou pulse apparatus is a valuable tool for evaluating AI in clinical practice. The close correlations reported above reflect the holistic concept of Traditional Chinese Medicine.展开更多
