Hierarchical Change-Detection Tests
Publication Year: 2017, Page(s):246 - 258
Cited by: Papers (7)We present hierarchical change-detection tests (HCDTs), as effective online algorithms for detecting changes in datastreams. HCDTs are characterized by a hierarchical architecture composed of a detection layer and a validation layer. The detection layer steadily analyzes the input datastream by means of an online, sequential CDT, which operates as a low-complexity trigger that promptly detects pos... View full abstract»

Stability Analysis of Neural Networks With Two Delay Components Based on Dynamic Delay Interval Method
Publication Year: 2017, Page(s):259 - 267
Cited by: Papers (9)In this paper, a dynamic delay interval (DDI) method is proposed to deal with the stability problem of neural networks with two delay components. This method extends the fixed interval of a time-varying delay to a dynamic one, which relaxes the restriction on upper and lower bounds of the delay intervals. Combining the reciprocally convex combination technique and Wirtinger integral inequality, th... View full abstract»

Publication Year: 2017, Page(s):268 - 277
Cited by: Papers (66)This paper addresses the problem of state estimation for a class of discrete-time stochastic complex networks with a constrained and randomly varying coupling and uncertain measurements. The randomly varying coupling is governed by a Markov chain, and the capacity constraint is handled by introducing a logarithmic quantizer.

A Locality-Constrained and Label Embedding Dictionary Learning Algorithm for Image Classification
Publication Year: 2017, Page(s):278 - 293
Cited by: Papers (10)Locality and label information of training samples play an important role in image classification. However, previous dictionary learning algorithms do not take the locality and label information of atoms into account together in the learning process, and thus their performance is limited. In this paper, a discriminative dictionary learning algorithm, called the locality-constrained and label embed... View full abstract»

Asymmetric Actuator Backlash Compensation in Quantized Adaptive Control of Uncertain Networked Nonlinear Systems
Publication Year: 2017, Page(s):294 - 307
Cited by: Papers (8)This paper mainly aims at the problem of adaptive quantized control for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems preceded by asymmetric actuator backlash. One challenging problem that blocks the construction of our control scheme is that the real control signal is wrapped in the coupling of quantization effect and nonsmooth backlash nonlinearity. To resolve this challenge, this paper presents a two-... View full abstract»

A Graph-Embedding Approach to Hierarchical Visual Word Mergence
Publication Year: 2017, Page(s):308 - 320Appropriately merging visual words are an effective dimension reduction method for the bag-of-visual-words model in image classification. The approach of hierarchically merging visual words has been extensively employed, because it gives a fully determined merging hierarchy. Existing supervised hierarchical merging methods take different approaches and realize the merging process with various form... View full abstract»

Out-of-Sample Extensions for Non-Parametric Kernel Methods
Publication Year: 2017, Page(s):334 - 345Choosing suitable kernels plays an important role in the performance of kernel methods. Recently, a number of studies were devoted to developing nonparametric kernels. Without assuming any parametric form of the target kernel, nonparametric kernel learning offers a flexible scheme to utilize the information of the data, which may potentially characterize the data similarity better. The kernel meth... View full abstract»

A Novel Twin Support-Vector Machine With Pinball Loss
Publication Year: 2017, Page(s):359 - 370
Cited by: Papers (6)Twin support-vector machine (TSVM), which generates two nonparallel hyperplanes by solving a pair of smaller-sized quadratic programming problems (QPPs) instead of a single larger-sized QPP, works faster than the standard SVM, especially for the large-scale data sets. However, the traditional TSVM adopts hinge loss which easily leads to its sensitivity of the noise and instability for resampling. ... View full abstract»

Growing Echo-State Network With Multiple Subreservoirs
Publication Year: 2017, Page(s):391 - 404
Cited by: Papers (2)An echo-state network (ESN) is an effective alternative to gradient methods for training recurrent neural network. However, it is difficult to determine the structure (mainly the reservoir) of the ESN to match with the given application. In this paper, a growing ESN (GESN) is proposed to design the size and topology of the reservoir automatically. First, the GESN makes use of the block matrix theo... View full abstract»

A Scoring Scheme for Online Feature Selection: Simulating Model Performance Without Retraining
Publication Year: 2017, Page(s):405 - 414
Cited by: Papers (1)Increasing the number of features increases the complexity of a model even if the additional feature does not improve its decision-making capacity. Irrelevant features may also cause overfitting and reduce interpretability of the concerned model. It is, therefore, important that the features are optimally selected before a model is built. In the case of online learning, new instances are periodica... View full abstract»
