Partially linear regression is capable of providing more complete description of the linear and nonlinear relationships among random variables. In support vector regression (SVR) the hyper-parameters are known to affect the performance of regression. In this paper we propose an iterative reweighted least squares (IRWLS) procedure to solve the quadratic problem of partially linear support vector regression with a modified loss function, which enables us to use the generalized approximate cross validation function to select the hyper-parameters. Experimental results are then presented which illustrate the performance of the partially linear SVR using IRWLS procedure.

In this paper we propose a variance function estimation method for replicated data based on averages of squared residuals obtained from estimated mean function by the least squares support vector machine. Newton-Raphson method is used to obtain associated parameter vector for the variance function estimation. Furthermore, the cross validation functions are introduced to select the hyper-parameters which affect the performance of the proposed estimation method. Experimental results are then presented which illustrate the performance of the proposed procedure.

Multiclassification is typically performed using voting scheme methods based on combining a set of binary classifications. In this paper we use multiclassification method with a hat matrix of least squares support vector machine (LS-SVM), which can be regarded as the revised one-against-all method. To tackle multiclass problems for large data, we use the $Nystr\ddot{o}m$ approximation and the quadratic Renyi entropy with estimation in the primal space such as used in xed size LS-SVM. For the selection of hyperparameters, generalized cross validation techniques are employed. Experimental results are then presented to indicate the performance of the proposed procedure.

In this paper we propose a robust version of varying coefficient models, which is based on the regularized regression with L1 regularization. We use the iteratively reweighted least squares procedure to solve L1 regularized objective function of varying coefficient model in locally weighted regression form. It provides the efficient computation of coefficient function estimates and the variable selection for given value of smoothing variable. We present the generalized cross validation function and Akaike information type criterion for the model selection. Applications of the proposed model are illustrated through the artificial examples and the real example of predicting the effect of the input variables and the smoothing variable on the output.

In this paper we propose a feature selection method identifying important features in the semivarying coefficient model. One important issue in semivarying coefficient model is how to estimate the parametric and nonparametric components. Another issue is how to identify important features in the varying and the constant effects. We propose a feature selection method able to address this issue using generalized cross validation functions of the varying coefficient least squares support vector regression (LS-SVR) and the linear LS-SVR. Numerical studies indicate that the proposed method is quite effective in identifying important features in the varying and the constant effects in the semivarying coefficient model.

Support vector machine(SVM) is capable of providing a more complete description of the linear and nonlinear relationships among random variables. In this paper we propose a sparse kernel regression(SKR) to overcome a weak point of SVM, which is, the steep growth of the number of support vectors with increasing the number of training data. The iterative reweighted least squares(IRWLS) procedure is used to solve the optimal problem of SKR with a Laplacian prior. Furthermore, the generalized cross validation(GCV) function is introduced to select the hyper-parameters which affect the performance of SKR. Experimental results are then presented which illustrate the performance of the proposed procedure.

Furthermore, we introduce the generalized approximate cross validation function to select the hyperparameters which affect the performance of SVQR. Experimental results are then presented which illustrate the performance of the IRWLS procedure for SVQR.

For multiclassification, it is often the case that some variables are not important while some variables are more important than others. We propose a novel algorithm for selecting such relevant variables for multiclassification. This algorithm is base on multiclass least squares support vector machine (LS-SVM), which uses results of multiclass LS-SVM using one-vs-all method. Experimental results are then presented which indicate the performance of the proposed method.

We also introduce the generalized cross validation function to select the hyper-parameters which affects the classification performance of the proposed method. Experimental results are then presented which illustrate the performance of the proposed procedure for classification.

최소제곱 서포트벡터기계 (least squares support vector machine)는 분류 및 비선형 회귀분석에서 유용하게 사용되고 있는 통계적 기법이다. 본 논문에서는 각 집단별로 생존자료가 관측된 경우 적용할 수 있는 LS-SVM을 제안한다. 제안된 모형은 임의우측 중도절단자료를 비선형 회귀모형에 적용할 수 있게 Kaplan- Meier의 중도절단분포의 추정값을 이용하여 구해진 가중값을 사용하고, 집단 간의 변동을 나타내기 위하여 임의효과항을 포함한다. 벌칙상수와 커널모수의 최적값을 구하기 위하여 일반화 교차타당성함수가 사용되고 모의실험에서는 임의효과항을 포함하지 않은 LS-SVM과 성능을 비교함으로써 제안된 방법의 우수성을 보이기로 한다.
