چکیده

We derive an exact p-value for testing a global null hypothesis in a general adaptive regression setting. Our approach uses the Kac-Rice formula (as described in Adler & Taylor 2007) applied to the problem of maximizing a Gaussian process. The resulting test statistic has a known distribution in finite samples, assuming Gaussian errors. We examine this test statistic in the case of the lasso, group lasso, principal components, and matrix completion problems. For the lasso problem, our test relates closely to the recently proposed covariance test of Lockhart et al. (2013). Our approach also yields exact selective inference for the mean parameter at the global maximizer of the process. AMS 2000 subject classifications: Primary 62M40; secondary 62J05.

ADAPTIVE NEURO-FUZZY INFERENCE SYSTEM AND STEPWISE REGRESSION FOR COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH ASSESSMENT OF CONCRETE CONTAINING METAKAOLIN

In the current study two methods are evaluated for predicting the compressive strength of concrete containing metakaolin. Adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) model and stepwise regression (SR) model are developed as a reliable modeling method for simulating and predicting the compressive strength of concrete containing metakaolin at the different ages. The required data in training an...

Prediction of soil cation exchange capacity using support vector regression optimized by genetic algorithm and adaptive network-based fuzzy inference system

Soil cation exchange capacity (CEC) is a parameter that represents soil fertility. Being difficult to measure, pedotransfer functions (PTFs) can be routinely applied for prediction of CEC by soil physicochemical properties that can be easily measured. This study developed the support vector regression (SVR) combined with genetic algorithm (GA) together with the adaptive network-based fuzzy infe...

Artificial intelligence-based approaches for multi-station modelling of dissolve oxygen in river

ABSTRACT: In this study, adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system, and feed forward neural network as two artificial intelligence-based models along with conventional multiple linear regression model were used to predict the multi-station modelling of dissolve oxygen concentration at the downstream of Mathura City in India. The data used are dissolved oxygen, pH, biological oxygen demand and water...

Discrimination of the Heart Ventricular and Atrial Abnormalities via a Wavelet-Aided Adaptive Network Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) Classifier

The aim of this study is to address a new feature extraction method in the area of the heart arrhythmia classification based on a metric with simple mathematical calculation called Curve-Length Method (CLM). In the presented method, curve length of the under study excerpted segment of signal is considered as an informative feature in which the effect of important geometric parameters of the ori...
