The main contributions are as follows: first, graph regularization is added into NMF to discover the hidden semantics and simultaneously respect the intrinsic geometric structure information of a data set. Second,the Lpsmoothing constraint is incorporated into NMF to combine the merits of isotropic(L_2-norm) and anisotropic(L_1-norm)diffusion smoothing, and produces a smooth and more accurate solution to the optimization problem. Finally, the update rules and proof of convergence of GSNMF are given. Experiments on several data sets show that the proposed method outperforms related state-of-the-art methods.展开更多

After using the random hot deck imputation, we propose the smoothed empirical likelihood ratio statistic for the ROC curve with missing data. Its asymptotic distribution is a scaled chi-square distribution and empirical likelihood confidence intervals for ROC curves are constructed. The simulation study shows that the proposed interval estimates perform well based on the coverage probability for different sample sizes and response rates.展开更多

The set of attributes associated with each vertex such as the vertex locations, curvature, temperature, pressure or saliency, can be recognized as data living on mani- fold surfaces. So interpolation and approximation for these data are of general interest. This paper presents two approaches for mani- fold data interpolation and approximation through the properties of Laplace-Beltrami operator (Laplace operator defined on a mani- fold surface). The first one is to use Laplace operator minimizing the membrane energy of a scalar function defined on a manifold. The second one is to use bi-Laplace operator minimizing the thin plate energy of a scalar function defined on a manifold. These two approaches can process data living on high genus meshed surfaces. The approach based on Laplace operator is more suitable for manifold data approximation and can be applied manifold data smoothing, while the one based on bi-Laplace operator is more suit- able for manifold data interpolation and can be applied image extremal envelope computation. All the application examples demon- strate that our procedures are robust and efficient.展开更多

For statistical fluctuation of radioactivity under complex environment,some smoothing filtering methods are proposed to solve the problem. These methods include adopting method of arithmetic moving average,center of gravity,least squares of polynomial,slide converter of discrete funcion convolution etc. The process of spectrum data is realized,and the results are assessed in H / FWHM( Peak High / Full Width at Half Maximum) and peak area based on the Matlab programming. The results indicate that different methods smoothed spectrum have respective superiority in different ergoregion,but the Gaussian function theory in discrete function convolution slide method is used to filter the complex γ-spectrum on Embedded system platform,and the statistical fluctuation of γ-spectrum is filtered well.展开更多

Various efforts have been invested for the estimation of the coefficient functions, based on the least squares principle. Related work includes smoothing spline and kernel methods among others, but these methods suffer from the shortcoming of non-robustness. In this paper, we introduce a local M-estimation method for estimating the coefficient functions and develop a robustified generalized likelihood ratio (GLR) statistic to test if some of the coefficient functions are constants or of certain parametric forms. The robustified GLR test is robust against outliers and the error distribution. This provides a useful robust inference tool for the models with longitudinal data. The bandwidth selection issue is also addressed to facilitate the implementation in practice. Simulations show that the proposed testing method is more powerful in some situations than its counterpart based on the least squares principle. A real example is also given for illustration.展开更多

Interacting multiple model-probabilistic data association (IMM-PDA) fixed-lag smoothing algorithm provides an efficient solution to track a maneuvering target in a cluttered environment. Whereas, the smoothing lag of each model in a model set is a fixed constant in traditional algorithms. A new approach is developed in this paper. Although this method is still based on IMM-PDA approach to a state augmented system, it adopts different smoothing lag according to diverse degrees of complexity of each model. As a result, the application is more flexible and the computational load is reduced greatly. Some simulations were conducted to track a highly maneuvering target in a cluttered environment using two sensors. The results illustrate the superiority of the proposed algorithm over comparative schemes, both in accuracy of track estimation and the computational load.展开更多
