In many practical machine learning and data mining applications, unlabeled training examples are readily available but labeled ones are fairly expensive to obtain. Therefore semi-supervised learning algorithms have attracted much attentions. However, previous research mainly focuses on classication problems. In this paper, a semi-supervised regression method based on support vector regression (SVR) formulation that is proposed. The estimator is easily obtained via the dual formulation of the optimization problem. The experimental results with simulated and real data suggest superior performance of the our proposed method compared with standard SVR.

This paper addresses incremental learning method for regression. SVM(support vector machine) is a recently proposed learning method. In general training a support vector machine requires solving a QP (quadratic programing) problem. For very large dataset or incremental dataset, solving QP problems may be inconvenient. So this paper presents an incremental support vector learning method for function approximation problems.

Inspired by using a robust loss function in the support vector machine regression to control training error and the idea of robust template matching with M-estimator, Chen (2004) applies M-estimator techniques to gaussian radial basis functions and form a new class of robust kernels for the support vector machines. We are specially interested in the shape of the Huber's M-estimator in this context and propose a way to find the shape parameter of the Huber's M-estimating function. For simplicity, only the two-class classification problem is considered.

Unlabeled examples are easier and less expensive to be obtained than labeled examples. In this paper semisupervised approach is used to utilize such examples in an effort to enhance the predictive performance of nonlinear quantile regression problems. We propose a semisupervised quantile regression method named semisupervised support vector quantile regression, which is based on support vector machine. A generalized approximate cross validation method is used to choose the hyper-parameters that affect the performance of estimator. The experimental results confirm the successful performance of the proposed S2SVQR.

본 논문에서는 Support Vector Machines (SVM) 을 이용하여, 빠르고 정확한 두 convex한 클러스터 간의 거리 측정 방법을 제시한다 제시된 방법에서는, SVM에 의해서 생성되는 최적 다차원 평면이 두 클러스터간의 최소 거리를 계산하는데 사용된다. 또한, 본 논문에서는 이러한 두 클러스터 간의 최적의 거리를 사용하여, Fuzzy Convex Clustering (FCC) 방법 (1) 에 의해서 생성되는 Convex 클러스터들을 묶어주는 효과적인 클러스터 결합 알고리즘을 제시하였다. 그러므로, 데이터의 부적절한 표현을 유발하지 않고도 클러스터들의 개수를 좀 더 줄일 수 있었다. 제시한 방법의 타당성을 위하여 여러 실험 결과를 제시하였다

Reliability analysis and prediction of next failure time is critical to sustain weapon systems, concerning scheduled maintenance, spare parts replacement and maintenance interventions, etc. Since 1981, many methodology derived from various probabilistic and statistical theories has been suggested to do that activity. Nowadays, many A.I. tools have been used to support these predictions. Support Vector Regression(SVR) is a nonlinear regression technique extended from support vector machine. SVR can fit data flexibly and it has a wide variety of applications. This paper utilizes SVM and SVR with combining time series to predict the next failure time based on historical failure data. A numerical case using failure data from the military equipment is presented to demonstrate the performance of the proposed approach. Finally, the proposed approach is proved meaningful to predict next failure point and to estimate instantaneous failure rate and MTBF.

This paper proposes a hybrid learning algorithm combined momentum and kernel-adatron for improving the performance of regression support vector machine. The momentum is utilized for high-speed convergence by restraining the oscillation in the process of converging to the optimal solution, and the kernel-adatron algorithm is also utilized for the capability by working in nonlinear feature spaces and the simple implementation. The proposed algorithm has been applied to the 1-dimension and 2-dimension nonlinear function regression problems. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has better the learning speed and performance of the regression, in comparison with those quadratic programming and kernel-adatron algorithm.

Support vector machines have been extensively studied and utilized in pattern recognition area for years. One of interesting applications of this technique is music/speech classification for a standardized codec such as 3GPP2 selectable mode vocoder. In this paper, we propose a novel approach that improves the speech/music classification of support vector machines. While conventional support vector machine optimization techniques apply during training phase, the proposed technique can be adopted in classification phase. In this regard, the proposed approach can be developed and employed in parallel with conventional optimizations, resulting in synergistic boost in classification performance. We first analyze the impact of kernel width parameter on the classifications made by support vector machines. From this analysis, we observe that we can fine-tune outputs of support vector machines with the kernel width parameter. To make the most of this capability, we identify strong correlation among neighboring input frames, and use this correlation information as a guide to adjusting kernel width parameter. According to the experimental results, the proposed algorithm is found to have potential for improving the performance of support vector machines.

The overall performance of AC servo system is greatly affected the uncertainties of unpredictable mechanical parameter variations and external load disturbances. To overcome this problem, it is necessary to know different parameters and load disturbances subjected to position/speed control. This paper proposes an on-line identification method of mechanical parameters/load disturbances for AC servo system using support vector regression(SVR). The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed SVR algorithm is appropriate for control of unknown servo systems even with time-varying/nonlinear parameters.
