We consider multivariate regression problems involving high-dimensional predictor and response spaces. To efficiently address such problems, we propose a variable selection method, Multivariate Group Orthogonal Matching Pursuit, which extends the standard Orthogonal Matching Pursuit technique. This extension accounts for arbitrary sparsity patterns induced by domain-specific groupings over both...

The ability to reproducibly match tinnitus loudness and pitch is important to research and clinical management. Here we examine agreement and reliability of tinnitus loudness matching and pitch likeness ratings when using a computer-based method to measure the tinnitus spectrum and estimate a dominant tinnitus pitch, using tonal or narrowband sounds. Group level data indicated a significant eff...

One of the concerns in field statistics is presence missing data, which leads to bias parameter estimation and inaccurate results. However, multiple imputation procedure a remedy for handling data. This study looked at best methods used handle mixed variable datasets with different sample sizes variability along levels missingness. The employed predictive mean matching, classification regressio...

Predicate dispatching generalizes previous method dispatch mechanisms by permitting arbitrary predicates to control method applicability and by using logical implication between predicates as the overriding relationship. The method selected to handle a message send can depend not just on the classes of the arguments, as in ordinary object-oriented dispatch, but also on the classes of subcompone...

Regular expression (RE) matching is a core component of deep packet inspection in modern networking and security devices. In this paper, we propose the first hardware-based RE matching approach that uses Ternary Content Addressable Memories (TCAMs), which are off-the-shelf chips and have been widely deployed in modern networking devices for packet classification. We propose three novel techniqu...

In this letter, we investigate the outage probability of a simultaneously transmitting and reflecting reconfigurable intelligent surface (STAR-RIS) assisted downlink non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) network over spatially correlated channels. To evaluate impact channel correlations on system performance, first approximate distribution composite gain as gamma random variable via moment-matc...
