Individual transition label noise logistic regression in binary classification for incorrectly-labeled data Technometrics (IF 2.091) Pub Date : 2021-01-04 Seokho Lee; Hyelim Jung
Abstract We consider binary classification problem in the case where some observations in training data are incorrectly labeled. In presence of such label noise, conventional classification fails to obtain a classifier to be generalized to population. In this work, we investigate label noise logistic regression and explain how it works with noisy training data. We demonstrate that, when label transition

Modality-Constrained Density Estimation via Deformable Templates Technometrics (IF 2.091) Pub Date : 2020-12-28 Sutanoy Dasgupta; Debdeep Pati; Ian H. Jermyn; Anuj Srivastava
Abstract Estimation of a probability density function (pdf) from its samples, while satisfying certain shape constraints, is an important problem that lacks coverage in the literature. This paper introduces a novel geometric, deformable template constrained density estimator (dtcode) for estimating pdfs constrained to have a given number of modes. Our approach explores the space of thus-constrained

Assurance for sample size determination in reliability demonstration testing Technometrics (IF 2.091) Pub Date : 2020-12-23 Kevin J Wilson; Malcolm Farrow
Abstract Manufacturers are required to demonstrate that products meet reliability targets. A way to achieve this is with reliability demonstration tests (RDTs), where a number of products are put on test and the test is passed or failed according to a decision rule based on the observed outcomes. There are various methods for determining the sample size for RDTs, typically based on the power of a hypothesis

Bayesian analysis of multifidelity computer models with local features and non-nested experimental designs: Application to the WRF model Technometrics (IF 2.091) Pub Date : 2020-12-07 Bledar A. Konomi; Georgios Karagiannis
Abstract Motivated by a multi-fidelity Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) climate model application where the available simulations are not generated based on hierarchically nested experimental design, we develop a new co-kriging procedure called Augmented Bayesian Treed Co-Kriging. The proposed procedure extends the scope of co-kriging in two major ways. We introduce a binary treed partition latent

A Random Fourier Feature Method for Emulating Computer Models with Gradient Information Technometrics (IF 2.091) Pub Date : 2020-11-25 Tzu-Hsiang Hung; Peter Chien
Abstract Computer models with gradient information are increasingly used in engineering and science. The gradient-enhanced Gaussian process emulator can be used for emulating such models. Because the size of the covariance matrix increases proportionally with the dimension of inputs and the sample size, it is computationally challenging to fit such an emulator for large data sets. We propose a random

Strategies for Supersaturated Screening: Group Orthogonal and Constrained Var(s) Designs Technometrics (IF 2.091) Pub Date : 2020-11-13 Maria L. Weese; Jonathan W. Stallrich; Byran J. Smucker; David J. Edwards
Abstract Despite the vast amount of literature on supersaturated designs (SSDs), there is a scant record of their use in practice. We contend this imbalance is due to conflicting recommendations regarding SSD use in the literature as well as the designs’ inabilities to meet practitioners’ analysis expectations. To address these issues, we first summarize practitioner concerns and expectations of SSDs

Template Priors in Bayesian Curve Registration Technometrics (IF 2.091) Pub Date : 2020-10-26 W. Zachary Horton; Garritt L. Page; C. Shane Reese; Lindsey K. Lepley; McKenzie White
Abstract In experiments where observations on each experimental unit are functional in nature, it is often the case that, in addition to variability along the horizontal axis (height or amplitude variability), there are also lateral displacements/deformations in curves (referred to as phase variability). Unlike the former, the latter form of variability is often treated as a nuisance parameter when

Elastic depths for detecting shape anomalies in functional data Technometrics (IF 2.091) Pub Date : 2020-08-19 Trevor Harris; J. Derek Tucker; Bo Li; Lyndsay Shand
We propose a new family of depth measures called the elastic depths that can be used to greatly improve shape anomaly detection in functional data. Shape anomalies are functions that have considerably different geometric forms or features from the rest of the data. Identifying them is generally more difficult than identifying magnitude anomalies because shape anomalies are often not distinguishable

Robust Function-on-Function Regression Technometrics (IF 2.091) Pub Date : 2020-07-29 Harjit Hullait; David S. Leslie; Nicos G. Pavlidis; Steve King
Functional linear regression is a widely used approach to model functional responses with respect to functional inputs. However, classical functional linear regression models can be severely affected by outliers. We therefore introduce a Fisher-consistent robust functional linear regression model that is able to effectively fit data in the presence of outliers. The model is built using robust functional

Dynamic Multivariate Functional Data Modeling via Sparse Subspace Learning Technometrics (IF 2.091) Pub Date : 2020-07-27 Chen Zhang; Hao Yan; Seungho Lee; Jianjun Shi
Multivariate functional data from a complex system are naturally high-dimensional and have a complex cross-correlation structure. The complexity of data structure can be observed as that (1) some functions are strongly correlated with similar features, while some others may have almost no cross-correlations with quite diverse features; and (2) the cross-correlation structure may also change over time

Can’t ridge regression perform variable selection? Technometrics (IF 2.091) Pub Date : 2020-07-06 Yichao Wu
Ridge regression was introduced to deal with the instability issue of the ordinary least squares estimate due to multicollinearity. It essentially penalizes the least squares loss by applying a ridge penalty on the regression coefficients. The ridge penalty shrinks the regression coefficient estimate towards zero, but not exactly zero. For this reason, the ridge regression has long been criticized
