Feature selection plays an important role in classifying systems such as neural networks (NNs). We use a set of attributes which are relevant, irrelevant or redundant and from the viewpoint of managing a dataset which can be huge, reducing the number of attributes by selecting only the relevant ones is desirable. In doing so, higher performances with lower computational effort is expected. In this paper, we propose two feature selection algorithms. The limitation of mutual information feature se

A method of principal component analysis (PCA) based on a new L1-norm optimization technique is proposed. Unlike conventional PCA which is based on L2-norm, the proposed method is robust to outliers because it utilizes L1-norm which is less sensitive to outliers. It is invariant to rotations as well. The proposed L1-norm optimization technique is intuitive, simple, and easy to implement. It is also proven to find a locally maximal solution. The proposed method is applied to several datasets and

Mutual information is a good indicator of relevance between variables, and have been used as a measure in several feature selection algorithms. However, calculating the mutual information is difficult, and the performance of a feature selection algorithm depends on the accuracy of the mutual information. In this paper, we propose a new method of calculating mutual information between input and class variables based on the Parzen window, and we apply this to a feature selection algorithm for clas

This paper proposes several principal component analysis (PCA) methods based on Lp-norm optimization techniques. In doing so, the objective function is defined using the Lp-norm with an arbitrary p value, and the gradient of the objective function is computed on the basis of the fact that the number of training samples is finite. In the first part, an easier problem of extracting only one feature is dealt with. In this case, principal components are searched for either by a gradient ascent metho

Background and objectives Intradialytic hypotension has high clinical significance. However, predicting it using conventional statistical models may be difficult because several factors have interactive and complex effects on the risk. Herein, we applied a deep learning model (recurrent neural network) to predict the risk of intradialytic hypotension using a timestamp-bearing dataset. Design, setting, participants, & measurements We obtained 261,647 hemodialysis sessions with 1,600,531 indep

In this paper, we propose a method to solve the image restoration problem, which tries to restore the details of a corrupted image, especially due to the loss caused by JPEG compression. We have treated an image in the frequency domain to explicitly restore the frequency components lost during image compression. In doing so, the distribution in the frequency domain is learned using the cross entropy loss. Unlike recent approaches, we have reconstructed the details of an image without using the s

In manipulating data such as in supervised learning, we often extract new features from the original features for the purpose of reducing the dimensions of feature space and achieving better performance. In this paper, we show how standard algorithms for independent component analysis (ICA) can be appended with binary class labels to produce a number of features that do not carry information about the class labels-these features will be discarded-and a number of features that do. We also provide

In kernel methods such as kernel principal component analysis (PCA) and support vector machines, the so called kernel trick is used to avoid direct calculations in a high (virtually infinite) dimensional kernel space. In this brief, based on the fact that the effective dimensionality of a kernel space is less than the number of training samples, we propose an alternative to the kernel trick that explicitly maps the input data into a reduced dimensional kernel space. This is easily obtained by th

With the upsurge in the use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in various fields, detecting and identifying them in real-time are becoming important topics. However, the identification of UAVs is difficult due to their characteristics such as low altitude, slow speed, and small radar cross-section (LSS). With the existing deterministic approach, the algorithm becomes complex and requires a large number of computations, making it unsuitable for real-time systems. Hence, effective alternatives ena

In this paper, we propose a robust principal component analysis (PCA) to overcome the problem that PCA is prone to outliers included in the training set. Different from the other alternatives which commonly replace L2-norm by other distance measures, the proposed method alleviates the negative effect of outliers using the characteristic of the generalized mean keeping the use of the Euclidean distance. The optimization problem based on the generalized mean is solved by a novel method. We also pr

In classification problems, we use a set of attributes which are relevant, irrelevant or redundant. By selecting only the relevant attributes of the data as input features of a classifying system and excluding redundant ones, higher performance is expected with smaller computational effort. We propose an algorithm of feature selection that makes more careful use of the mutual informations between input attributes and others than the mutual information feature selector (MIFS). The proposed algori

Recent years have witnessed a proliferation of valuable original natural language contents found in subscription-based media outlets, web novel platforms, and outputs of large language models. However, these contents are susceptible to illegal piracy and potential misuse without proper security measures. This calls for a secure watermarking system to guarantee copyright protection through leakage tracing or ownership identification. To effectively combat piracy and protect copyrights, a multi-bi
