A polynomial smooth epsilon-support vector regression based on cubic spline interpolation

Regression analysis is often formulated as an optimization problem with squared loss functions.Facing the challenge of the selection of the proper function class with polynomial smooth techniques applied to support vector regression models,this study takes cubic spline interpolation to generate a new polynomial smooth function |x|_ε~2 in ε-insensitive support vector regression.Theoretical analysis shows that S_ε~2-function is better than p_ε~2-function in properties,and the approximation accuracy of the proposed smoothing function is two order higher than that of classical p_ε~2-function.The experimental data shows the efficiency of the new approach.

中国劳动力市场收入户籍歧视的无条件分位数分解

使用无条件分位数分解方法对2007年中国劳动力市场的收入户籍歧视程度进行了考察.实证分析的结果显示:从整体上看,2007年户籍歧视可以解释农民工和城镇职工平均收入差距的近三分之一,且歧视效应随收入分位提高而增加;从分项贡献来看,各自变量对收入差异的影响随收入分位变动明显.根据实证分析得出的政策建议为:当政策目标为缩小高收入分位的群体收入差异时,消除户籍歧视的政策效果更好;而当政策目标为缩小低收入分位的群体收入差异时,缩小两群体禀赋差异的政策效果更好.     

基于奇异谱分析的我国航空客运量集成预测模型

针对时间序列包含噪声以及单一模型可能存在预测表现不稳定的问题,本文提出了一个基于奇异谱分析(SSA)的集成预测模型,并将其运用于我国年度航空客运量的预测中.首先,采用SSA方法对原始时间序列进行分解和重构,得到一个剔除噪声的时间序列,然后将其作为单整自回归移动平均模型(ARIMA)、支持向量回归模型(SVR)、Holt-Winters方法(HW)等单一模型的输入并进行预测,接着再采用加权平均集成预测方法(WA)将三种单一模型的预测结果进行综合集成.通过与各单一模型、基于经验模态分解方法(EMD)的模型以及简单平均集成预测方法(SA)的预测结果进行对比发现,本文所建模型具有较高的预测精度和较稳定的预测表现.最后,采用本文的模型对我国2014-2016年年度航空客运量进行了预测.

A Simple Linear Regression Approach to Modeling and Forecasting Mortality Rates

Observing that a sequence of negative logarithms of 1‐year survival probabilities displays a linear relationship with the sequence of corresponding terms with a time lag of a certain number of years, we propose a simple linear regression to model and forecast mortality rates. Our model assuming the linearity between two mortality sequences with a time lag each other does not need to formulate the time trends of mortality rates across ages for mortality prediction. Moreover, the parameters of our model for a given age depend on the mortality rates for that age only. Therefore, whether the span of the study ages with the age included is widened or shortened will not affect the results of mortality fitting and forecasting for that age. In the empirical testing, the regression results using the mortality data for the UK, USA and Japan show a satisfactory goodness of fit, which convinces us of the appropriateness of the linear assumption. Empirical illustrations further show that our model's performances of fitting and forecasting mortality rates are quite satisfactory compared with the existing well‐known mortality models.

A Time‐Simultaneous Prediction Box for a Multivariate Time Series

A sample‐based method in Kolsrud (Journal of Forecasting 2007; 26 (3): 171–188) for the construction of a time‐simultaneous prediction band for a univariate time series is extended to produce a variable‐ and time‐simultaneous prediction box for a multivariate time series. A measure of distance based on the L_∞ ‐norm is applied to a learning sample of multivariate time trajectories, which can be mean‐ and/or variance‐nonstationary. Based on the ranking of distances to the centre of the sample, a subsample of the most central multivariate trajectories is selected. A prediction box is constructed by circumscribing the subsample with a hyperrectangle. The fraction of central trajectories selected into the subsample can be calibrated by bootstrap such that the expected coverage of the box equals a prescribed nominal level. The method is related to the concept of data depth, and thence modified to increase coverage. Applications to simulated and empirical data illustrate the method, which is also compared to several other methods in the literature adapted to the multivariate setting.

一种基于视频图像的挖掘机工作状态识别方法

为了实现违法用地现象的实时监测,对土地间的挖掘机等施工机械的工作状态识别是非常重要的.实际场景下,因随机噪声和光照变化的影响,给挖掘机工作状态识别带来极大的挑战.本文提出一种基于视频图像的挖掘机工作状态识别方法,首先,对同一品牌挖掘机工作装置的各种姿态建立混合local binary features (LBF)形状回归模型并进行离线训练;其次,利用上述模型预测输入视频帧中挖掘机工作装置的形状信息,构建挖掘机的工作状态特征描述子;最后,利用support vector machine (SVM)分类器自动判别挖掘机的工作状态—-工作状态或非工作状态.实验结果表明,该方法很好地克服了多姿态导致形状变化的影响,对挖掘机工作状态识别准确率达到了93.53%.
