We introduce a technique for extending the classical method of linear discriminant analysis (LDA) to data sets where the predictor variables are curves or functions. This procedure, which we call functional linear discriminant analysis ( FLDA ), is particularly useful when only fragments of the curves are observed. All the techniques associated with LDA can be extended for use with FLDA. In particular FLDA can be used to produce classifications on new (test) curves, give an estimate of the discriminant function between classes and provide a one- or two-dimensional pictorial representation of a set of curves. We also extend this procedure to provide generalizations of quadratic and regularized discriminant analysis.  相似文献

We propose a hybrid two-group classification method that integrates linear discriminant analysis, a polynomial expansion of the basis (or variable space), and a genetic algorithm with multiple crossover operations to select variables from the expanded basis. Using new product launch data from the biochemical industry, we found that the proposed algorithm offers mean percentage decreases in the misclassification error rate of 50%, 56%, 59%, 77%, and 78% in comparison to a support vector machine, artificial neural network, quadratic discriminant analysis, linear discriminant analysis, and logistic regression, respectively. These improvements correspond to annual cost savings of $4.40–$25.73 million.  相似文献

Several mathematical programming approaches to the classification problem in discriminant analysis have recently been introduced. This paper empirically compares these newly introduced classification techniques with Fisher's linear discriminant analysis (FLDA), quadratic discriminant analysis (QDA), logit analysis, and several rank-based procedures for a variety of symmetric and skewed distributions. The percent of correctly classified observations by each procedure in a holdout sample indicate that while under some experimental conditions the linear programming approaches compete well with the classical procedures, overall, however, their performance lags behind that of the classical procedures.  相似文献

In the classical discriminant analysis, when two multivariate normal distributions with equal variance–covariance matrices are assumed for two groups, the classical linear discriminant function is optimal with respect to maximizing the standardized difference between the means of two groups. However, for a typical case‐control study, the distributional assumption for the case group often needs to be relaxed in practice. Komori et al. (Generalized t ‐statistic for two‐group classification. Biometrics 2015, 71: 404–416) proposed the generalized t ‐statistic to obtain a linear discriminant function, which allows for heterogeneity of case group. Their procedure has an optimality property in the class of consideration. We perform a further study of the problem and show that additional improvement is achievable. The approach we propose does not require a parametric distributional assumption on the case group. We further show that the new estimator is efficient, in that no further improvement is possible to construct the linear discriminant function more efficiently. We conduct simulation studies and real data examples to illustrate the finite sample performance and the gain that it produces in comparison with existing methods.  相似文献

In multivariate data analysis, Fisher linear discriminant analysis is useful to optimally separate two classes of observations by finding a linear combination of p variables. Functional data analysis deals with the analysis of continuous functions and thus can be seen as a generalisation of multivariate analysis where the dimension of the analysis space p strives to infinity. Several authors propose methods to perform discriminant analysis in this infinite dimensional space. Here, the methodology is introduced to perform discriminant analysis, not on single infinite dimensional functions, but to find a linear combination of p infinite dimensional continuous functions, providing a set of continuous canonical functions which are optimally separated in the canonical space.KEYWORDS: Functional data analysis, linear discriminant analysis, classification  相似文献

Error rate is a popular criterion for assessing the performance of an allocation rule in discriminant analysis. Training samples which involve missing values cause problems for those error rate estimators that require all variables to be observed at all data points. This paper explores imputation algorithms, their effects on, and problems of implementing them with, eight commonly used error rate estimators (three parametric and five non-parametric) in linear discriminant analysis. The results indicate that imputation should not be based on the way error rate estimators are calculated, and that imputed values may underestimate error rates.  相似文献

Minitab's data subsetting lack of fit test (denoted XLOF) is a combination of Burn and Ryan's test and Utts' test for testing lack of fit in linear regression models. As an alternative to the classical or pure error lack of fit test, it does not require replicates of predictor variables. However, due to the uncertainty about its performance, XLOF still remains unfamiliar to regression users while the well-known classical lack of fit test is not applicable to regression data without replicates. So far this procedure has not been mentioned in any textbooks and has not been included in any other software packages. This study assesses the performance of XLOF in detecting lack of fit in linear regressions without replicates by comparing the power with the classic test. The power of XLOF is simulated using Minitab macros for variables with several forms of curvature. These comparisons lead to pragmatic suggestions on the use of XLOF. The performance of XLOF was shown to be superior to the classical test based on the results. It should be noted that the replicates required for the classical test made itself unavailable for most of the regression data while XLOF can still be as powerful as the classic test even without replicates.  相似文献

判别分析已越来越受到人们的重视并取得了重要的应用成果,但应用中存在着简单套用的情况,对判别分析的适用性、判别效果的显著性、判别变量的判别能力以及判别函数的判别能力的检验等问题重视不够。为了更好地应用判别分析,就应对判别分析进行统计检验并建立统计检验体系,统计检验体系应包括:判别分析适用性检验,判别效果显著性检验,判别变量的判别能力检验和判别函数的判别能力检验。  相似文献

A new and innovative procedure based on time varying amplitudes for the classification of cyclical time series is proposed. In many practical situations, the amplitude of a cyclical component of a time series is not constant. Estimated time varying amplitudes obtained through complex demodulation of the time series are used as the discriminating variables in classical discriminant analysis. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate through simulation studies and applications to well-known data sets, that time varying amplitudes have very good discriminating power and hence their use in classical discriminant analysis is a simple alternative to more complex methods of time series discrimination.  相似文献

For time series data with obvious periodicity (e.g., electric motor systems and cardiac monitor) or vague periodicity (e.g., earthquake and explosion, speech, and stock data), frequency-based techniques using the spectral analysis can usually capture the features of the series. By this approach, we are able not only to reduce the data dimensions into frequency domain but also utilize these frequencies by general classification methods such as linear discriminant analysis (LDA) and k-nearest-neighbor (KNN) to classify the time series. This is a combination of two classical approaches. However, there is a difficulty in using LDA and KNN in frequency domain due to excessive dimensions of data. We overcome the obstacle by using Singular Value Decomposition to select essential frequencies. Two data sets are used to illustrate our approach. The classification error rates of our simple approach are comparable to those of several more complicated methods.  相似文献

In this paper, a nonparametric discriminant analysis procedure that is less sensitive than traditional procedures to deviations from the usual assumptions is proposed. The procedure uses the projection pursuit methodology where the projection index is the two-group transvariation probability. Montanari [A. Montanari, Linear discriminant analysis and transvariation, J. Classification 21 (2004), pp. 71–88] proposed and used this projection index to measure group separation but allocated the new observation using distances. Our procedure employs a method of allocation based on group–group transvariation probability to classify the new observation. A simulation study shows that the procedure proposed in this paper provides lower misclassification error rates than classical procedures like linear discriminant analysis and quadratic discriminant analysis and recent procedures like maximum depth and Montanari's transvariation-based classifiers, when the underlying distributions are skewed and/or the prior probabilities are unequal.  相似文献

Generalized discriminant analysis based on distances   总被引:14,自引:1,他引:13  
This paper describes a method of generalized discriminant analysis based on a dissimilarity matrix to test for differences in a priori groups of multivariate observations. Use of classical multidimensional scaling produces a low‐dimensional representation of the data for which Euclidean distances approximate the original dissimilarities. The resulting scores are then analysed using discriminant analysis, giving tests based on the canonical correlations. The asymptotic distributions of these statistics under permutations of the observations are shown to be invariant to changes in the distributions of the original variables, unlike the distributions of the multi‐response permutation test statistics which have been considered by other workers for testing differences among groups. This canonical method is applied to multivariate fish assemblage data, with Monte Carlo simulations to make power comparisons and to compare theoretical results and empirical distributions. The paper proposes classification based on distances. Error rates are estimated using cross‐validation.  相似文献

Heteroscedastic two-way ANOVA are frequently encountered in real data analysis. In the literature, classical F-tests are often blindly employed although they are often biased even for moderate heteroscedasticity. To overcome this problem, several approximate tests have been proposed in the literature. These tests, however, are either too complicated to implement or do not work well in terms of size controlling. In this paper, we propose a simple and accurate approximate degrees of freedom (ADF) test. The ADF test is shown to be invariant under affine-transformations, different choices of contrast matrix for the same null hypothesis, or different labeling schemes of cell means. Moreover, it can be conducted easily using the usual F-distribution with one unknown degree of freedom estimated from the data. Simulations demonstrate that the ADF test works well in various cell sizes and parameter configurations but the classical F-tests work badly when the cell variance homogeneity assumption is violated. A real data example illustrates the methodologies.  相似文献

Measures of association between two sets of random variables have long been of interest to statisticians. The classical canonical correlation analysis (LCCA) can characterize, but also is limited to, linear association. This article introduces a nonlinear and nonparametric kernel method for association study and proposes a new independence test for two sets of variables. This nonlinear kernel canonical correlation analysis (KCCA) can also be applied to the nonlinear discriminant analysis. Implementation issues are discussed. We place the implementation of KCCA in the framework of classical LCCA via a sequence of independent systems in the kernel associated Hilbert spaces. Such a placement provides an easy way to carry out the KCCA. Numerical experiments and comparison with other nonparametric methods are presented.  相似文献

In this article, a sequential correction of two linear methods: linear discriminant analysis (LDA) and perceptron is proposed. This correction relies on sequential joining of additional features on which the classifier is trained. These new features are posterior probabilities determined by a basic classification method such as LDA and perceptron. In each step, we add the probabilities obtained on a slightly different data set, because the vector of added probabilities varies at each step. We therefore have many classifiers of the same type trained on slightly different data sets. Four different sequential correction methods are presented based on different combining schemas (e.g. mean rule and product rule). Experimental results on different data sets demonstrate that the improvements are efficient, and that this approach outperforms classical linear methods, providing a significant reduction in the mean classification error rate.  相似文献

The current paradigm for the identification of candidate drugs within the pharmaceutical industry typically involves the use of high-throughput screens. High-content screening (HCS) is the term given to the process of using an imaging platform to screen large numbers of compounds for some desirable biological activity. Classification methods have important applications in HCS experiments, where they are used to predict which compounds have the potential to be developed into new drugs. In this paper, a new classification method is proposed for batches of compounds where the rule is updated sequentially using information from the classification of previous batches. This methodology accounts for the possibility that the training data are not a representative sample of the test data and that the underlying group distributions may change as new compounds are analysed. This technique is illustrated on an example data set using linear discriminant analysis, k-nearest neighbour and random forest classifiers. Random forests are shown to be superior to the other classifiers and are further improved by the additional updating algorithm in terms of an increase in the number of true positives as well as a decrease in the number of false positives.  相似文献

This paper discusses the robustness of discriminant analysis against contamination in the training data, the test data are assumed uncontaminated. The concept of training data breakdown point for discriminant analysis is introduced. It is quite different from the usual breakdown point in robust statistics. In the robust location parameter estimation problem, outliers are the main concern, but in discriminant analysis, not only are outliers a concern, but also inliers.  相似文献

We consider the supervised classification setting, in which the data consist of p features measured on n observations, each of which belongs to one of K classes. Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) is a classical method for this problem. However, in the high-dimensional setting where p ? n, LDA is not appropriate for two reasons. First, the standard estimate for the within-class covariance matrix is singular, and so the usual discriminant rule cannot be applied. Second, when p is large, it is difficult to interpret the classification rule obtained from LDA, since it involves all p features. We propose penalized LDA, a general approach for penalizing the discriminant vectors in Fisher's discriminant problem in a way that leads to greater interpretability. The discriminant problem is not convex, so we use a minorization-maximization approach in order to efficiently optimize it when convex penalties are applied to the discriminant vectors. In particular, we consider the use of L(1) and fused lasso penalties. Our proposal is equivalent to recasting Fisher's discriminant problem as a biconvex problem. We evaluate the performances of the resulting methods on a simulation study, and on three gene expression data sets. We also survey past methods for extending LDA to the high-dimensional setting, and explore their relationships with our proposal.  相似文献

Linear combinations of random variables play a crucial role in multivariate analysis. Two extension of this concept are considered for functional data and shown to coincide using the Loève–Parzen reproducing kernel Hilbert space representation of a stochastic process. This theory is then used to provide an extension of the multivariate concept of canonical correlation. A solution to the regression problem of best linear unbiased prediction is obtained from this abstract canonical correlation formulation. The classical identities of Lawley and Rao that lead to canonical factor analysis are also generalized to the functional data setting. Finally, the relationship between Fisher's linear discriminant analysis and canonical correlation analysis for random vectors is extended to include situations with function-valued random elements. This allows for classification using the canonical Y scores and related distance measures.  相似文献
