Exploratory Correlation Analysis

چکیده
We present a novel unsupervised artificial neural network for the extraction of common features in multiple data sources. This algorithm, which we name Exploratory Correlation Analysis (ECA), is a multi-stream extension of a neural implementation of Exploratory Projection Pursuit (EPP) and has a close relationship with Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA). Whereas EPP identifies ”interesting” statistical directions in a single stream of data, ECA develops a joint coding of the common underlying statistical features across a number of data streams. It has been shown that the principle of contextual guidance may be used to find a sparse coding of the features in dual natural image patches that is very different from single stream sparse coding experiments. The network only identifies those features which exist in both data streams and thus tend to be fewer in number and more complex in nature.

Subjective Evaluation of Mobile Speech Input: Experiences from Two Case Studies
Thorough understanding of subjective and objective measurements of speech-based interaction, especially of its user experience, is vital for practical application development. We present findings from two case studies where multimodal applications containing speech input were evaluated using a subjective evaluation methodology. Responses were investigated using both correlation analysis and exp...

This study has been carried out to develop a critical checklist for global/commercial textbooks which play a crucial role in language teaching/learning. For this aim, a number of items have been developed based on a comprehensive review of the related literature and experts’ opinions. The tentative checklist was administered to the targeted population, yet 326 checklists were deemed appropriate...

We extend a reinforcement learning algorithm which has previously been shown to cluster data. We have previously applied the method to unsupervised projection methods, principal component analysis, exploratory projection pursuit and canonical correlation analysis. We now show how the same methods can be used in feature spaces to perform kernel principal component analysis and kernel canonical c...

Uses and gratifications and characteristics of consumers’ exposure to online video ads were reviewed for this study. First, findings of exploratory factor analysis revealed five different motivations for viewing online video ads – socia...
متن کاملCanonical Correlation & Principal Components Analysis
Canonical Correlation is one of the most general of the multivariate techniques. It is used to investigate the overall correlation between two sets of variables (p’ and q’). The basic principle behind canonical correlation is determining how much variance in one set of variables is accounted for by the other set along one or more axes. If there is more than one axis, they must be orthogonal. Un...
