Nonlinear Forecasting with Many Predictors using Kernel Ridge Regression
This paper puts forward kernel ridge regression as an approach for forecasting with many predictors that are related nonlinearly to the target variable. In kernel ridge regression, the observed predictor variables are mapped nonlinearly into a high-dimensional space, where estimation of the predictive regression model is based on a shrinkage estimator to avoid overfitting. We extend the kernel ...
متن کاملIs Cache Oblivious DGEMM a Viable Alternative?
We present an in-depth study of various implementations of DGEMM, using both the recursive and iterative programming styles. Recursive algorithms for DGEMM are usually cache-oblivious and they automatically block DGEMM’s operands A, B, C for the memory hierarchy. Iterative algorithms for DGEMM explicitly block A, B, C for the L1 cache, higher caches and memory. Our study shows that recursive DG...
متن کاملBoosting with missing predictors.
Boosting is an important tool in classification methodology. It combines the performance of many weak classifiers to produce a powerful committee, and its validity can be explained by additive modeling and maximum likelihood. The method has very general applications, especially for high-dimensional predictors. For example, it can be applied to distinguish cancer samples from healthy control sam...
متن کاملGeneralized Shrinkage Methods for Forecasting Using Many Predictors
This article provides a simple shrinkage representation that describes the operational characteristics of various forecasting methods designed for a large number of orthogonal predictors (such as principal components). These methods include pretest methods, Bayesian model averaging, empirical Bayes, and bagging. We compare empirically forecasts from these methods with dynamic factor model (DFM)...
متن کاملIs FaceTime a viable alternative to onsite clinical site evaluations?
With graduate nursing programs converting to online formatting, students can be located all over the country. However, it becomes challenging to monitor these students during their clinical rotations. Most universities require two faculty site visits during a semester. The author has encountered a variety of requirements for faculty site visits, which include one or two per semester, depending ...
