چکیده

We introduce a new unsupervised learning algorithm for kernel-based topographic map formation of heteroscedastic gaussian mixtures that allows for a unified account of distortion error (vector quantization), log-likelihood, and Kullback-Leibler divergence.

Fixed point rules for heteroscedastic Gaussian kernel-based topographic map formation

Abstract— We develop a number of fixed point rules for training homogeneous, heteroscedastic but otherwise radially-symmetric Gaussian kernel-based topographic maps. We extend the batch map algorithm to the heteroscedastic case and introduce two candidates of fixed point rules for which the end-states, i.e., after the neighborhood range has vanished, are identical to the maximum likelihood Gaus...

Pruning Rule for kMER-Based Acquisition of the Global Topographic Feature Map

For a kernel-based topographic map formation, kMER (kernel-based maximum entropy learning rule) was proposed by Van Hulle, and some effective learning rules related to kMER have been proposed so far with many applications. However, no discusions have been made concerning the determination of the number of units in kMER. This letter describes a unit-pruning rule, which permits automatic contruct...

A Stochastic Self-Organizing Map for Proximity Data

We derive an efficient algorithm for topographic mapping of proximity data (TMP), which can be seen as an extension of Kohonen's self-organizing map to arbitrary distance measures. The TMP cost function is derived in a Baysian framework of folded Markov chains for the description of autoencoders. It incorporates the data by a dissimilarity matrix D and the topographic neighborhood by a matrix H...

The Role of Topographic Factors and Land Formation on the Severity of Forest Crown Dieback in the Zagrossian Sector of Ilam Province

The purpose of this study was to investigate some environmental factors of Zagros forest dieback. In this regard, raster layers of elevation, slope, aspect, hillshade, toposhape and the land formation of Zagros forests in Ilam province were prepared. The distribution map of live and dieback forest cover were also prepared, using Landsat 8 panchromatic images. Then, the percentage of dieback for...

Consistency and Limiting Distribution of the Maximum Likelihood Estimator of a Generalized Threshold Model

The open-loop Threshold Model, proposed by Tong [30], is a piecewise-linear stochastic regression model useful for modeling conditionally normal response time-series data. However, in many applications, the response variable is conditionally non-normal, e.g. Poisson or binomially distributed. We generalize the open-loop Threshold Model by introducing the Generalized Threshold Model (GTM). Speci...
