Learning Spectral-Spatial-Temporal Features via a Recurrent Convolutional Neural Network for Change Detection in Multispectral Imagery
Change detection is one of the central problems in earth observation and was
extensively investigated over recent decades. In this paper, we propose a novel
recurrent convolutional neural network (ReCNN) architecture, which is trained
to learn a joint spectral-spatial-temporal feature representation in a unified
framework for change detection in multispectral images. To this end, we bring
together a convolutional neural network (CNN) and a recurrent neural network
(RNN) into one end-to-end network. The former is able to generate rich
spectral-spatial feature representations, while the latter effectively analyzes
temporal dependency in bi-temporal images. In comparison with previous
approaches to change detection, the proposed network architecture possesses
three distinctive properties: 1) It is end-to-end trainable, in contrast to
most existing methods whose components are separately trained or computed; 2)
it naturally harnesses spatial information that has been proven to be
beneficial to change detection task; 3) it is capable of adaptively learning
the temporal dependency between multitemporal images, unlike most of algorithms
that use fairly simple operation like image differencing or stacking. As far as
we know, this is the first time that a recurrent convolutional network
architecture has been proposed for multitemporal remote sensing image analysis.
The proposed network is validated on real multispectral data sets. Both visual
and quantitative analysis of experimental results demonstrates competitive
performance in the proposed mode
Cancer gene prioritization by integrative analysis of mRNA expression and DNA copy number data: a comparative review
A variety of genome-wide profiling techniques are available to probe
complementary aspects of genome structure and function. Integrative analysis of
heterogeneous data sources can reveal higher-level interactions that cannot be
detected based on individual observations. A standard integration task in
cancer studies is to identify altered genomic regions that induce changes in
the expression of the associated genes based on joint analysis of genome-wide
gene expression and copy number profiling measurements. In this review, we
provide a comparison among various modeling procedures for integrating
genome-wide profiling data of gene copy number and transcriptional alterations
and highlight common approaches to genomic data integration. A transparent
benchmarking procedure is introduced to quantitatively compare the cancer gene
prioritization performance of the alternative methods. The benchmarking
algorithms and data sets are available at http://intcomp.r-forge.r-project.orgComment: PDF file including supplementary material. 9 pages. Preprin

U-statistic Type Tests for Structural Breaks in Linear Regression Models
This article introduces a U-statistic type process that is based on a kernel function which can depend on nuisance parameters. It is shown here that this process can accommodate very easily anti-symmetric kernels very useful for detecting changing patterns in the dynamics of time series. This theory is applied to structural break hypothesis tests in linear regression models. In particular, the flexibility of these processes will be exploited to introduce a simultaneous and joint test that exhibit statistical power against changes in either intercept or slope. In contrast to the literature, these tests are able to distinguish between rejections due to changes in intercept from rejections due to changes in slope; allow control of global errors rate; and are explicitly designed to have power when the distribution error is asymmetric. These tests can also incorporate different weight functions devised to detect changes early as well as later on in the sample, and show very good performance in small samples. These tests, therefore, outperform CUSUM type tests widely employed in this literature
