A note on spatially weighted subarray covariance averaging schemes

Subdivision by WAVES – Weighted AVEraging Schemes

The Catmull-Clark subdivision algorithm consists of an operator that can be decomposed into a refinement and a smoothing operator, where the refinement operator splits each face with m vertices into m quadrilateral subfaces and the smoothing operator replaces each internal vertex with an affine combination of its neighboring vertices and itself. In this paper, we generalize the Catmull-Clark sc...

On Ordered Weighted Averaging Social Optima

In this paper, we look at the classical problem of aggregating individual utilities and study social orderings which are based on the concept of Ordered Weighted Averaging (OWA) Aggregating Operator. In these social orderings, called OWA social welfare functions (swf), weights are assigned a priori to the positions in the social ranking and, for every possible alternative, the total welfare is ...

Constraints in Weighted Averaging

Weighted averaging of classifier outputs is used in many MCSs, yet is still not well understood. Several empirical studies have investigated the effect that non-negativity and sum-one constraints have on the error rate of weighted averaging rules, but there is little theory available to understand the results. In this paper we study how constraints on the weights affect the location of the deci...
