Projection pursuit(PP) is a computer-intensive method which seeks out interesting linear projections of multivariate data onto a lower dimension space by machine. By working with lower dimensional projections, projection pursuit avoids the sparseness of high dimensional data. We show through simulation that two projection pursuit discriminant mothods proposed by Chen(1989) and Huber(1985) do not improve very much the error rate than the existing methods and compare several classification procedures.

Projection pursuit classification tree uses a 1-dimensional projection with the view of the most separating classes in each node. These projection coefficients contain information distinguishing two groups of classes from each other and can be used to calculate the importance measure of classification in each variable. This paper reviews the variable importance measure with increasing interest in line with growing data size. We compared the performances of projection pursuit classification tree with those of classification and regression tree(CART) and random forest. Projection pursuit classification tree are found to produce better performance in most cases, particularly with highly correlated variables. The importance measure of projection pursuit classification tree performs slightly better than the importance measure of random forest.

projection pursuit을 이용하여 이변량 정규분포의 적합도 검정을 위한 통계량을 제안한다. 기본적인 생각은 이변량 정규분포의 가정하에 표준정규분포를 갖는 모든 선형조합을 고려하여 이들의 순서통계량과 이론적인 분위수를 비교하는 것이다. 이와 같이 제안된 통계량은 선형변환에 대해서 불변(invariant)이다. 본 논문에서는 제안된 통계량의 극한분포를 적절한 Gaussian process의 적분으로 표현한다.

In this paper, we propose a method to identify multiple outliers in regression analysis with only assumption of smoothness on the regression function. Our method uses single-linkage clustering algorithm and Projection Pursuit Regression (PPR). It was compared with existing methods using several simulated and real examples and turned out to be very useful in regression problem with the regression function which is far from linear.

We developed a macro for prediction and classification using profection pursuit regression based on Friedman (1984b) and Hwang, et al. (1994). In the macro, the order of the Hermite functions can be selected automatically. In projection pursuit regression, we compare several smoothing methods such as super smoothing, smoothing with the Hermite functions. Also, classification methods applied to German credit data are compared.

For the analysis of multiunit extracellular neural signals as multiple spike trains, neural spike sorting is essential. Existing algorithms for the spike sorting have been unsatisfactory when the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR) is low, especially for implementation of fully-automated systems. We present a novel method that shows satisfactory performance even under low SNR, and compare its performance with a recent method based on principal component analysis(PCA) and fuzzy c-means(FCM) clustering algorithm. Our system consists of a spike detector that shows high performance under low SNR, a feature extractor that utilizes projection pursuit based on negentropy maximization, and an unsupervised classifier based on Gaussian mixture model. It is shown that the proposed feature extractor gives better performance compared to the PCA, and the proposed combination of spike detector, feature extraction, and unsupervised classification yields much better performance than the PCA-FCM, in that the realization of fully-automated unsupervised spike sorting becomes more feasible.

K-means clustering is a well-known partitioning method of multivariate observations. Recently, the method is implemented broadly in data mining softwares due to its computational efficiency in handling large data sets. However, it does not yield a suitable visual display of multivariate observations that is important especially in exploratory stage of data analysis. The aim of this study is to develop a K-means clustering method that enables visual display of multivariate observations in a low-dimensional space, for which the projection pursuit method is adopted. We propose a computationally inexpensive and reliable algorithm and provide two numerical examples.

Testing equality of two and k distributions has long been an interesting issue in statistical inference. To overcome the sparseness of data points in high-dimensional space and deal with the general cases, we suggest several projection pursuit type statistics. Some results on the limiting distributions of the statistics are obtained, some properties of Bootstrap approximation are investigated. Furthermore, for computational reasons an approximation for the statistics the based on Number theoretic method is applied. Several simulation experiments are performed.

본 논문에서는 반응변수가 두 가지의 값을 갖는 회귀분석에 적용할 수 있는 사영추적회귀를 고려하였다. 회귀모형에 필요한 설명변수들의 선형결합이 하나이고 연결함수의 형태를 사전에 알지 못한다는 가정하에서 모의담금질 기법을 이용하여 모형에 필요한 선형결합을 찾는 알고리즘을 제시하였다. 이진 반응변수의 경우에는 평활모수의 값에 따라 잔차이탈도함수의 반응표면이 단봉의 형태를 갖지 않는 경우가 있어 비동질적 마코프체인을 이용한 모의담금질 기법을 적용하면 효율적으로 선형결합을 탐색할 수 있다.

The projection pursuit method has been gussested as a technique for the analysis of the multivariate data. This method seeks out interesting linear projections of the multivariate data onto a line of a plane to solve the curse or dimensionality. In this paper we developed the discriminant analysis by using the projection method and simulations were used for comparison between this and other existing discriminant analysis methods.
