چکیده

In one way or another, the extension of the standard Brownian motion process {B¡: t e [0,oo)} to a (Gaussian) random field {Bt: t € R+} involves a proof of the positive semi-definiteness of the kernel used to generalize p(s, 1) = cov(Bs,B¡) = s A t to multidimensional time. Simple direct analytical proofs are provided here for the cases of (i) the Levy multiparameter Brownian motion, (ii) the Chentsov Brownian sheet, and (iii) the multiparameter fractional Brownian field.

Positive Definite Kernels and Boundary Spaces

We consider a kernel based harmonic analysis of “boundary,” and boundary representations. Our setting is general: certain classes of positive definite kernels. Our theorems extend (and are motivated by) results and notions from classical harmonic analysis on the disk. Our positive definite kernels include those defined on infinite discrete sets, for example sets of vertices in electrical networ...

Earth Mover's Distance Yields Positive Definite Kernels For Certain Ground Distances

Positive definite kernels are an important tool in machine learning that enable efficient solutions to otherwise difficult or intractable problems by implicitly linearizing the problem geometry. In this paper we develop a set-theoretic interpretation of the Earth Mover’s Distance (EMD) that naturally yields metric and kernel forms of EMD as generalizations of elementary set operations. In parti...

Positive Definite Kernels in Machine Learning

This survey is an introduction to positive definite kernels and the set of methods they have inspired in the machine learning literature, namely kernel methods. We first discuss some properties of positive definite kernels as well as reproducing kernel Hibert spaces, the natural extension of the set of functions {k(x, ·), x ∈ X} associated with a kernel k defined on a space X . We discuss at le...

Strictly positive definite kernels on subsets of the complex plane

In this paper we seek for inner product dependent strictly positive definite kernels on subsets of C. We present separated necessary and sufficient conditions in order that a positive definite kernel on C be strictly positive definite. One emphasis is on strictly positive definite kernels on the unit circle. Since positive definite kernels on the circle were already characterized in [1], the st...

Conditionally Positive Definite Kernels and Pontryagin Spaces

Conditionally positive definite kernels provide a powerful tool for scattered data approximation. Many nice properties of such methods follow from an underlying reproducing kernel structure. While the connection between positive definite kernels and reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces is well understood, the analog relation between conditionally positive definite kernels and reproducing kernel Po...

We introduce a class of analytic positive definite multivariate kernels which includes infinite dot product kernels as sometimes used in machine learning, certain new nonlinearly factorizable kernels and a kernel which is closely related to the Gaussian. Each such kernel reproduces in a certain 'native' Hilbert space of multivariate analytic functions. If functions from this space are interpola...
