A Copula Statistic for Measuring Nonlinear Dependence with Application to Feature Selection in Machine Learning

Feature selection in machine learning aims to find out the best subset of variables from the input that reduces the computation requirement and improves the predictor performance. This paper introduces a new index based on empirical copulas, termed as the Copula Statistic (CoS) to assess the strength of statistical dependence and for testing statistical independence. It shows that this test exh...

A Multiple Objective Nonlinear Programming Model for Site Selection of the Facilities Based on the Passive Defense Principles

One of the main principles of the passive defense is the principle of site selection. In this paper, we propose a multiple objective nonlinear programming model that considers the principle of the site selection in terms of two qualitative and quantitative aspects. The purpose of the proposed model is selection of the place of facilities of a system in which not only it observes the dispersion ...

Definition of General Operator Space and The s-gap Metric for Measuring Robust Stability of Control Systems with Nonlinear Dynamics

In the recent decades, metrics have been introduced as mathematical tools to determine the robust stability of the closed loop control systems. However, the metrics drawback is their limited applications in the closed loop control systems with nonlinear dynamics. As a solution in the literature, applying the metric theories to the linearized models is suggested. In this paper, we show that usin...

Universal tree structures in directed polymers and models of evolving populations.

By measuring or calculating coalescence times for several models of coalescence or evolution, with and without selection, we show that the ratios of these coalescence times become universal in the large size limit and we identify a few universality classes.

MEASURING THE EFFECT OF OBSERVATrONS USING THE I'OSTERIOR AND THE INTRINSIC BAYES FACTORS WITH VAGUE PRIOR

Model determination is one of the fundamental problems in statistics. In this paper we consider model selection amongst a finite set of models along with model adequacy which are two integrated parts of model determination. We consider a measure of the effect of individual observations on the posterior and the intrinsic Bayes factors by studying the change in it after deleting an observation. T...

A fuzzy random multi-objective approach for portfolio selection

In this paper, the portfolio selection problem is considered, where fuzziness and randomness appear simultaneously in optimization process. Since return and dividend play an important role in such problems, a new model is developed in a mixed environment by incorporating fuzzy random variable as multi-objective nonlinear model. Then a novel interactive approach is proposed to determine the pref...
