Negative correlation of adjacent Busemann increments

Adjacent Channel Interference Suppression Using Correlation Feedback

Increments of Random Partitions

For any partition of {1, 2, . . . , n} we define its increments Xi, 1 ≤ i ≤ n by Xi = 1 if i is the smallest element in the partition block that contains it, Xi = 0 otherwise. We prove that for partially exchangeable random partitions (where the probability of a partition depends only on its block sizes in order of appearance), the law of the increments uniquely determines the law of the partit...

Negative correlation and log-concavity

OF THE DISSERTATION Negative correlation and log-concavity by Michael Neiman Dissertation Director: Jeff Kahn This thesis is concerned with negative correlation and log-concavity properties and relations between them, with much of our motivation provided by [40], [46], and [12]. Our main results include a proof that “almost exchangeable” measures satisfy the “FederMihail” property; counterexamp...

Negative correlation in neural systems

Local Negative Correlation with Resampling

This paper deals with a learning algorithm which combines two well known methods to generate ensemble diversity error negative correlation and resampling. In this algorithm, a set of learners iteratively and synchronously improve their state considering information about the performance of a fixed number of other learners in the ensemble, to generate a sort of local negative correlation. Resamp...
