Local-Aggregate Modeling for Big-Data via Distributed Optimization: Applications to Neuroimaging
Technological advances have led to a proliferation of structured big data
that have matrix-valued covariates. We are specifically motivated to build
predictive models for multi-subject neuroimaging data based on each subject's
brain imaging scans. This is an ultra-high-dimensional problem that consists of
a matrix of covariates (brain locations by time points) for each subject; few
methods currently exist to fit supervised models directly to this tensor data.
We propose a novel modeling and algorithmic strategy to apply generalized
linear models (GLMs) to this massive tensor data in which one set of variables
is associated with locations. Our method begins by fitting GLMs to each
location separately, and then builds an ensemble by blending information across
locations through regularization with what we term an aggregating penalty. Our
so called, Local-Aggregate Model, can be fit in a completely distributed manner
over the locations using an Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM)
strategy, and thus greatly reduces the computational burden. Furthermore, we
propose to select the appropriate model through a novel sequence of faster
algorithmic solutions that is similar to regularization paths. We will
demonstrate both the computational and predictive modeling advantages of our
methods via simulations and an EEG classification problem.Comment: 41 pages, 5 figures and 3 table
Wind Power Forecasting Methods Based on Deep Learning: A Survey
Accurate wind power forecasting in wind farm can effectively reduce the enormous impact on grid operation safety when high permeability intermittent power supply is connected to the power grid. Aiming to provide reference strategies for relevant researchers as well as practical applications, this paper attempts to provide the literature investigation and methods analysis of deep learning, enforcement learning and transfer learning in wind speed and wind power forecasting modeling. Usually, wind speed and wind power forecasting around a wind farm requires the calculation of the next moment of the definite state, which is usually achieved based on the state of the atmosphere that encompasses nearby atmospheric pressure, temperature, roughness, and obstacles. As an effective method of high-dimensional feature extraction, deep neural network can theoretically deal with arbitrary nonlinear transformation through proper structural design, such as adding noise to outputs, evolutionary learning used to optimize hidden layer weights, optimize the objective function so as to save information that can improve the output accuracy while filter out the irrelevant or less affected information for forecasting. The establishment of high-precision wind speed and wind power forecasting models is always a challenge due to the randomness, instantaneity and seasonal characteristics
