In the streaming data where data samples arrive sequentially in time, it is difficult to apply the dimension reduction method based on batch learning. Therefore an incremental dimension reduction method for the application to streaming data has been studied. In this paper, we propose an incremental linear discriminant analysis method using the least squared error solution. Instead of computing scatter matrices directly, the proposed method incrementally updates the projective direction for dimension reduction by using the information of a new incoming sample. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method is more efficient compared with previously proposed incremental dimension reduction methods.

We consider the problem of estimating the parameters of heavy tailed distributions. In general, maximum likelihood estimation(MLE) is the most preferred method of parameter estimation because it has good properties such as asymptotic consistency, normality and efficiency. However, MLE is not always the best solution because MLE is unstable or does not exist in some cases. This paper proposes another parameter estimation method, non-linear least squares(NLS) and compares its performance to MLE. The NLS estimator is achieved by minimizing sum of squared difference between empirical cumulative distribution function(CDF) and a theoretical distribution function. In this article, we compare the NLS method to MLE using simulated data from heavy tailed distributions. The NLS method is shown to perform better than MLE in Burr distribution when the sample size is small; in addition, it performs well in a Frechet distribution.

Kriging interpolation is one of the generally used interpolation techniques in Geostatistics field. This technique includes the experimental and theoretical variograms and the formulation of kriging interpolation. In contrast to the conventional least square method for stress recovery, kriging interpolation is based on the weighted least square method to obtain the estimated exact solution from the stress data at the Gauss points. The weight factor is determined by variogram modeling for interpolation of stress data apart from the conventional interpolation methods that use an equal weight factor. In addition to this, the p-level is increased non-uniformly or selectively through a posteriori error estimation based on SPR (superconvergent patch recovery) technique, proposed by Zienkiewicz and Zhu, by auto mesh p-refinement. The cut-out plate problem under tension has been tested to validate this approach. It also provides validity of kriging interpolation through comparing to existing least square method.

In ease of the epidemic Zero-Inflated Poisson model, likelihood ratio test was used for testing epidemic alternatives. Epidemic changepoints were estimated by the method of least squares. It were used for starting points to estimate the maximum likelihood estimators. And several parameters were compared through the Monte Carlo simulations. As a result, maximum likelihood estimators for the epidemic chaagepoints and several parameters are better than the least squares and moment estimators.

The first-order least-squares meshfree method for linear elasticity is presented. The conventional and the compatibility-imposed least-squares formulations are studied on the convergence behavior of the solution and the robustness to integration error. Since the least-squares formulation is a type of mixed formulation and induces positive-definite system matrix, by using shape functions of same order for both primal and dual variables, higher rate of convergence is obtained for dual variables than Galerkin formulation. Numerical examples also show that the presented formulations do not exhibit any volumetric locking for the incompressible materials.

An h-adaptive scheme of first-order least-squares meshfree method is presented. A posteriori error estimates, which can be readily computed from the residual, are also presented. For elliptic problem the error indicators are further improved by applying the Aubin-Nitsche method. In the proposed refinement scheme, Voronoi cells are utilized to insert nodes at appropriate positions. Through numerical examples, it is demonstrated that the error indicators reveal good correlations with the actual errors and the adaptive first-order least-squares meshfree method is effectively applied to the localized problems such as the shock formation in fluid dynamics.

광학설계의 최적화에서는 최소자승법과 감쇠최소자승법이 주로 사용되고 있다. 최소자승법은 error의 제곱의 합을 최소화하는 방법으로, 이 방법은 최적점 부근에서의 불안정성이 발생하는 문제점이 있다. 감쇠최소자자승법은 최소자승법에 적절한 감쇠항을 부가함으로써 최적점 부근에서의 불안정성을 줄여주고 있다. 본 연구에서는 광학설계의 제한조건을 Lagrange 부정승수$^{(1)}$ 를 사용하여 감쇠최소자승법의 정규방정식에 결합하여 제한조건을 유지하면서 merit function을 줄이는 방법에 대하여 연구하였다. 이 방법에서는 제한조건이 merit function의 error 함수보다 우선적으로 보정되며, 이를 이용하여 매 iteration 마다 merit function에서 절대값이 큰 error를 감쇠최소자승법의 정규방정식에서 제거하고 이 보정조건을 제한조건에 추가함으로서 다른 error항 보다 우선적으로 보정되도록 하였다. 이 때 이 error를 한번에 보정하는 경우에는 merit function의 진동이 심하고 광학계가 사용불가능한 형태로 변화하는 경우가 많아 적절한 target ratio를 설정하여 반복과정을 통하여 점진적으로 보정되도록 하였으며, 이를 통하여 최적화의 안정성을 개선할 수 있었다.

It is common in practice to use mean squared error(MSE) for prediction. Recently, Park and Shin (2005) and Jones et al. (2007) studied prediction based on mean squared relative error(MSRE). We proposed a new nonparametric way of prediction based on MSRE substituting Jones et al. (2007) and provided a small simulation study which highly supports the proposed method.

In this study, a statistical method for evaluating the fatigue life of a vehicle muffler was used to obtain reliable fatigue data using a limited number of specimens. Cyclic bending tests were conducted using specimens manufactured to be exactly the same as the mufflers installed in cars that are currently in use. To estimate the fatigue life by comparing the data obtained during the fatigue tests, the most suitable probability density function for the normal, lognormal, and Weibull distributions was selected. A goodness-of-fit test was performed on the probability distributions, and then a Weibull distribution using the least square method was selected. By using the selected Weibull distribution, the probability-moment-life curves (P-M-N curve) reflecting the fatigue characteristics were suggested as the data for the reliable design of a muffler.
