Determination of the Mahalanobis matrix using nonparametric noise estimations
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, the problem of an optimal transformation of the input space for function approximation problems is addressed. The transformation is defined determining the Mahalanobis matrix that minimizes the variance of noise. To compute variance of the noise, a nonparametric estimator called the Delta Test paradigm is used. The proposed approach is illlustrated on two different benchmarks.

Identifying Useful Variables for Vehicle Braking Using the Adjoint Matrix Approach to the Mahalanobis-Taguchi System
The Mahalanobis Taguchi System (MTS) is a diagnosis and forecasting method for multivariate data. Mahalanobis distance (MD) is a measure based on correlations between the variables and different patterns that can be identified and analyzed with respect to a base or reference group. MTS is of interest because of its reported accuracy in forecasting small, correlated data sets. This is the type o...

متن کاملNonparametric Online Regression while Learning the Metric
We study algorithms for online nonparametric regression that learn the directions along which the regression function is smoother. Our algorithm learns the Mahalanobis metric based on the gradient outer product matrix G of the regression function (automatically adapting to the effective rank of this matrix), while simultaneously bounding the regret —on the same data sequence— in terms of the sp...
