In this paper, we propose an iterative mixed norm image restoration algorithm using multi regularization parameters. A functional which combines the regularized $l_2$ norm functional and the regularized $l_4$ norm functional is proposed to efficiently remove arbitrary noise. The smoothness of each functional is determined by the regularization parameters. Also, a regularization parameter is used to determine the relative importance between the regularized $l_2$ norm functional and the regularized $l_4$ norm functional using kurtosis. An iterative algorithm is utilized for obtaining a solution and its convergence is analyzed. Experimental results demonstrate the capability of the proposed algorithm.

This research estimates the Mixture of Normals of households saving rate in Korea. Our sample is MDSS, micro-data in 2014 and Gibbs algorithm is used to estimate the Mixture of Normals. Evidences say some results. First, Gibbs algorithm works very well in estimating the Mixture of Normals. Second, Saving rate data has at least two components, one with mean zero and the other with mean 29.4%. It might be that households would be separated into high saving group and low saving group. Third, analysis of Mixture of Normals cannot answer that question and we find that income level and age cannot explain our results.

Discriminant analysis based on Gaussian mixture models, an useful tool for multi-class classifications, can be extended to semi-supervised learning. We consider a model selection problem for a Gaussian mixture model in semi-supervised learning. More specifically, we adopt Bayesian information criterion to determine the number of subclasses in the mixture model. Through simulations, we illustrate the usefulness of the criterion.

From the point view of credit evaluation whose population is divided into the default and non-default state, two methods are considered to estimate conditional distribution functions: one is to estimate under the assumption that the data is followed the mixture normal distribution and the other is to use the kernel density estimation. The parameters of normal mixture are estimated using the EM algorithm. For the kernel density estimation, five kinds of well known kernel functions and four kinds of the bandwidths are explored. In addition, the corresponding ROC functions are obtained based on the estimated distribution functions. The goodness-of-fit of the estimated distribution functions are discussed and the performance of the ROC functions are compared. In this work, it is found that the kernel distribution functions shows better fit, and the ROC function obtained under the assumption of normal mixture shows better performance.

혼합정규분포에서 얻어진 히스토그램 자료에서 모수의 추정은 EM 알고리즘 혹은 스프라인 방법이 흔히 이용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 히스토그램 자료를 비선형회귀모형으로 적합하는 방법을 제시하고, 시뮬레이션으로 제시된 방법과 EM 알고리즘 방법을 비교하였다.

This article proposes a couple of parallel implementations of the self-organizing network for normal mixtures. In principle, self-organizing networks should be able to be implemented in a parallel computing environment without issue. However, the network for normal mixtures has inherent problem in being operated parallel in pure sense due to estimating conditional expectations of the mixing proportion in each iteration. This article shows the result of the parallel implementations of the network using Java. According to the results, both of the implementations achieved a faster execution without any performance degradation.

This paper introduces a regularized mixed norm multi-channel image restoration algorithm using both within-and between- channel deterministic information. For each channel a functional which combines the least mean squares (LMS), the least mean fourth (LMF), and a smoothing functional is proposed. We introduce a mixed norm parameter that controls the relative contribution between the LMS and the LMF, and a regularization parameter defining the degree of smoothness of the solution, where both parameters are updated at each iteration according to the noise characteristics of each channel. The novelty of the proposed algorithm is that no knowledge of the noise distribution for each channel is required and that the parameters mentioned above are adjusted based on the partially restored image.

본 논문에서 우리는 정규화 된 혼합 노름(norm)을 이용한 다중 채널 영상 복원 알고리즘을 제안한다. 채널 내부와 채널 사이의 결정론적 정보를 이용하는 다중채널 복원 문제를 고려한다. 각 채널에서, LMS(Least Mean Square), LMF(Least Mean Fourth), 평탄 함수가 결합된 함수가 제안되었다. LMS와 LMF 사이의 적절한 분배를 제어하는 혼합 노를 매개변수와 해의 평탄 정도를 정의하는 정규화 매개 변수를 소개하며, 두 매개 변수는 각 채널의 잡음 특성에 따라 매번 반복적으로 갱신된다. 제안된 알고리즘은 각 채널의 잡음분포에 대한 지식이 필요하지 앉고 앞에서 언급된 매개 변수는 부분적으로 복원된 영상에 기반을 두고 조절하게 된다.

The option pricing of Black와 Scholes (1973) and Merton (1973) has been widely reported to fail to reflect the time varying volatility of financial time series in many real applications. For example, Duan (1995) proposed GARCH option pricing method through Monte Carlo simulation. However, financial time series is known to follow a fat-tailed and leptokurtic probability distribution, which is not explained by Duan (1995). In this paper, in order to overcome such defects, we proposed the option pricing method based on GARCH models with normal mixture errors. According to the analysis of KOSPI200 option price data, the option pricing based on GARCH models with normal mixture errors outperformed the option pricing based on GARCH models with normal errors in the unstable period with high volatility.

Law et al. (2004) proposed a normal distribution based salient mixture model for variable selection in clustering. However, this model has substantial problems such as the unidentifiability of components an the inaccurate selection of informative variables in the case of a small cluster size. We propose an alternative method to overcome problems and demonstrate a good performance through experiments on simulated data and real data.
