An extended orthogonal forward regression algorithm for system identification using entropy
In this paper, a fast identification algorithm for nonlinear dynamic stochastic system identification is presented. The algorithm extends the classical Orthogonal Forward Regression (OFR) algorithm so that instead of using the Error Reduction Ratio (ERR) for term selection, a new optimality criterion —Shannon’s Entropy Power Reduction Ratio(EPRR) is introduced to deal with both Gaussian and non-Gaussian signals. It is shown that the new algorithm is both fast and reliable and examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the new approach
Generalised cellular neural networks (GCNNs) constructed using particle swarm optimisation for spatio-temporal evolutionary pattern identification
Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is introduced to implement a new constructive learning algorithm for training generalized cellular neural networks (GCNNs) for the identification of spatio-temporal evolutionary (STE) systems. The basic idea of the new PSO-based learning algorithm is to successively approximate the desired signal by progressively pursuing relevant orthogonal projections. This new algorithm will thus be referred to as the orthogonal projection pursuit (OPP) algorithm, which is in mechanism similar to the conventional projection pursuit approach. A novel two-stage hybrid training scheme is proposed for constructing a parsimonious GCNN model. In the first stage, the orthogonal projection pursuit algorithm is applied to adaptively and successively augment the network, where adjustable parameters of the associated units are optimized using a particle swarm optimizer. The resultant network model produced at the first stage may be redundant. In the second stage, a forward orthogonal regression (FOR) algorithm, aided by mutual information estimation, is applied to re. ne and improve the initially trained network. The effectiveness and performance of the proposed method is validated by applying the new modeling framework to a spatio-temporal evolutionary system identification problem
A new class of multiscale lattice cell (MLC) models for spatio-temporal evolutionary image representation
Spatio-temporal evolutionary (STE) images are a class of complex dynamical systems that evolve over both space and time. With increased interest in the investigation of nonlinear complex phenomena, especially spatio-temporal behaviour governed by evolutionary laws that are dependent
on both spatial and temporal dimensions, there has been an increased need to investigate model identification methods for this class of complex systems. Compared with pure temporal processes, the identification of spatio-temporal models from observed images is much more difficult and quite
challenging. Starting with an assumption that there is no apriori information about the true model but
only observed data are available, this study introduces a new class of multiscale lattice cell (MLC)
models to represent the rules of the associated spatio-temporal evolutionary system. An application to a chemical reaction exhibiting a spatio-temporal evolutionary behaviour, is investigated to demonstrate the new modelling framework
Generalised additive multiscale wavelet models constructed using particle swarm optimisation and mutual information for spatio-temporal evolutionary system representation
A new class of generalised additive multiscale wavelet models (GAMWMs) is introduced for high dimensional spatio-temporal evolutionary (STE) system identification. A novel two-stage hybrid learning scheme is developed for constructing such an additive wavelet model. In the first stage, a new orthogonal projection pursuit (OPP) method, implemented using a particle swarm optimisation(PSO) algorithm, is proposed for successively augmenting an initial coarse wavelet model, where relevant parameters of the associated wavelets are optimised using a particle swarm optimiser. The resultant network model, obtained in the first stage, may however be a redundant model. In the second stage, a forward orthogonal regression (FOR) algorithm, implemented using a mutual information method, is then applied to refine and improve the initially constructed wavelet model. The proposed two-stage hybrid method can generally produce a parsimonious wavelet model, where a ranked list of wavelet functions, according to the capability of each wavelet to represent the total variance in the desired system output signal is produced. The proposed new modelling framework is applied to real observed images, relative to a chemical reaction exhibiting a spatio-temporal evolutionary behaviour, and the associated identification results show that the new modelling framework is applicable and effective for handling high dimensional identification problems of spatio-temporal evolution sytems
Model structure selection using an integrated forward orthogonal search algorithm assisted by squared correlation and mutual information
Model structure selection plays a key role in non-linear system identification. The first step in non-linear system identification is to determine which model terms should be included in the model. Once significant model terms have been determined, a model selection criterion can then be applied to select a suitable model subset. The well known Orthogonal Least Squares (OLS) type algorithms are one of the most efficient and commonly used techniques for model structure selection. However, it has been observed that the OLS type algorithms may occasionally select incorrect model terms or yield a redundant model subset in the presence of particular noise structures or input signals. A very efficient Integrated Forward Orthogonal Search (IFOS) algorithm, which is assisted by the squared correlation and mutual information, and which incorporates a Generalised Cross-Validation (GCV) criterion and hypothesis tests, is introduced to overcome these limitations in model structure selection
An alternative solution to the model structure selection problem
An alternative solution to the model structure selection problem is introduced by conducting a forward search through the many possible candidate model terms initially and then performing an exhaustive all subset model selection on the resulting model. An example is included to demonstrate that this approach leads to dynamically valid nonlinear model
Tensor Networks for Dimensionality Reduction and Large-Scale Optimizations. Part 2 Applications and Future Perspectives
Part 2 of this monograph builds on the introduction to tensor networks and
their operations presented in Part 1. It focuses on tensor network models for
super-compressed higher-order representation of data/parameters and related
cost functions, while providing an outline of their applications in machine
learning and data analytics. A particular emphasis is on the tensor train (TT)
and Hierarchical Tucker (HT) decompositions, and their physically meaningful
interpretations which reflect the scalability of the tensor network approach.
Through a graphical approach, we also elucidate how, by virtue of the
underlying low-rank tensor approximations and sophisticated contractions of
core tensors, tensor networks have the ability to perform distributed
computations on otherwise prohibitively large volumes of data/parameters,
thereby alleviating or even eliminating the curse of dimensionality. The
usefulness of this concept is illustrated over a number of applied areas,
including generalized regression and classification (support tensor machines,
canonical correlation analysis, higher order partial least squares),
generalized eigenvalue decomposition, Riemannian optimization, and in the
optimization of deep neural networks. Part 1 and Part 2 of this work can be
used either as stand-alone separate texts, or indeed as a conjoint
comprehensive review of the exciting field of low-rank tensor networks and
tensor decompositions.Comment: 232 page
