Adaptive Online Sequential ELM for Concept Drift Tackling
A machine learning method needs to adapt to over time changes in the
environment. Such changes are known as concept drift. In this paper, we propose
concept drift tackling method as an enhancement of Online Sequential Extreme
Learning Machine (OS-ELM) and Constructive Enhancement OS-ELM (CEOS-ELM) by
adding adaptive capability for classification and regression problem. The
scheme is named as adaptive OS-ELM (AOS-ELM). It is a single classifier scheme
that works well to handle real drift, virtual drift, and hybrid drift. The
AOS-ELM also works well for sudden drift and recurrent context change type. The
scheme is a simple unified method implemented in simple lines of code. We
evaluated AOS-ELM on regression and classification problem by using concept
drift public data set (SEA and STAGGER) and other public data sets such as
MNIST, USPS, and IDS. Experiments show that our method gives higher kappa value
compared to the multiclassifier ELM ensemble. Even though AOS-ELM in practice
does not need hidden nodes increase, we address some issues related to the
increasing of the hidden nodes such as error condition and rank values. We
propose taking the rank of the pseudoinverse matrix as an indicator parameter
to detect underfitting condition.Comment: Hindawi Publishing. Computational Intelligence and Neuroscience

A Novel Progressive Multi-label Classifier for Classincremental Data
In this paper, a progressive learning algorithm for multi-label
classification to learn new labels while retaining the knowledge of previous
labels is designed. New output neurons corresponding to new labels are added
and the neural network connections and parameters are automatically
restructured as if the label has been introduced from the beginning. This work
is the first of the kind in multi-label classifier for class-incremental
learning. It is useful for real-world applications such as robotics where
streaming data are available and the number of labels is often unknown. Based
on the Extreme Learning Machine framework, a novel universal classifier with
plug and play capabilities for progressive multi-label classification is
developed. Experimental results on various benchmark synthetic and real
datasets validate the efficiency and effectiveness of our proposed algorithm.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures, 4 table
Machine Learning and Integrative Analysis of Biomedical Big Data.
Recent developments in high-throughput technologies have accelerated the accumulation of massive amounts of omics data from multiple sources: genome, epigenome, transcriptome, proteome, metabolome, etc. Traditionally, data from each source (e.g., genome) is analyzed in isolation using statistical and machine learning (ML) methods. Integrative analysis of multi-omics and clinical data is key to new biomedical discoveries and advancements in precision medicine. However, data integration poses new computational challenges as well as exacerbates the ones associated with single-omics studies. Specialized computational approaches are required to effectively and efficiently perform integrative analysis of biomedical data acquired from diverse modalities. In this review, we discuss state-of-the-art ML-based approaches for tackling five specific computational challenges associated with integrative analysis: curse of dimensionality, data heterogeneity, missing data, class imbalance and scalability issues
Recent Advances in Transfer Learning for Cross-Dataset Visual Recognition: A Problem-Oriented Perspective
This paper takes a problem-oriented perspective and presents a comprehensive
review of transfer learning methods, both shallow and deep, for cross-dataset
visual recognition. Specifically, it categorises the cross-dataset recognition
into seventeen problems based on a set of carefully chosen data and label
attributes. Such a problem-oriented taxonomy has allowed us to examine how
different transfer learning approaches tackle each problem and how well each
problem has been researched to date. The comprehensive problem-oriented review
of the advances in transfer learning with respect to the problem has not only
revealed the challenges in transfer learning for visual recognition, but also
the problems (e.g. eight of the seventeen problems) that have been scarcely
studied. This survey not only presents an up-to-date technical review for
researchers, but also a systematic approach and a reference for a machine
learning practitioner to categorise a real problem and to look up for a
possible solution accordingly
