In this paper, Nonlinear Autoregressive (NAR) method based on Least Square-Support Vector Regression (LS-SVR) is introduced and tested for nonlinear sustained vowel modeling. In the database of total 43 sustained vowel of Benign Vocal Fold Lesions having aperiodic waveform, this nonlinear synthesizer near perfectly reproduced chaotic sustained vowels, and also conserved the naturalness of sound such as jitter, compared to Linear Predictive Coding does not keep these naturalness. However, the results of some phonation are quite different from the original sounds. These results are assumed that single-band model can not afford to control and decompose the high frequency components. Therefore multi-band model with wavelet filterbank is adopted for substituting single band model. As a results, multi-band model results in improved stability. Finally, nonlinear sustained vowel modeling using NAR based on LS-SVR can successfully reconstruct synthesized sounds nearly similar to original voiced sounds.

This paper considers an incremental support vector learning for the abnormality detection problems. One of the most well-known support vector learning methods for abnormality detection is the so-called SVDD(support vector data description), which seeks the strategy of utilizing balls defined on the kernel feature space in order to distinguish a set of normal data from all other possible abnormal objects. The major concern of this paper is to modify the SVDD into the direction of utilizing the relation between the optimal solution and incrementally given training data. After a thorough review about the original SVDD method, this paper establishes an incremental method for finding the optimal solution based on certain observations on the Lagrange dual problems. The applicability of the presented incremental method is illustrated via a design example.

Using the assumption that the price of a stock follows a geometric Brownian motion with constant volatility, Black and Scholes (BS) derived a formula that gives the price of a European call option on the stock as a function of the stock price, the strike price, the time to maturity, the risk-free interest rate, the dividend rate paid by the stock, and the volatility of the stock's return. However, implied volatilities of BS method tend to depend on the stock prices and the time to maturity in practice. To address this shortcoming, we estimate the implied volatility function as a function of the strike priceand the time to maturity for data consisting of the daily prices for KOSPI200 call options from January 2007 to May 2009 using support vector regression (SVR), the multiple additive regression trees (MART) algorithm, and ordinary least squaress (OLS) regression. In conclusion, use of MART or SVR in the BS pricing model reduced both RMSE and MAE, compared to the OLS-based BS pricing model.

Recently, kernel methods have attracted great interests in the areas of pattern classification, function approximation, and anomaly detection. The role of the kernel is particularly important in the methods such as SVM(support vector machine) and KPCA(kernel principal component analysis), for it can generalize the conventional linear machines to be capable of efficiently handling nonlinearities. This paper considers the problem of combining radar and rain gauge observations utilizing the regression approach based on the kernel-based gaussian process and support vector learning. The data-assimilation results of the considered methods are reported for the radar and rain gauge observations collected over the region covering parts of Gangwon, Kyungbuk, and Chungbuk provinces of Korea, along with performance comparison.

A military shelter for communication and information is necessary to optimize the integrated combat ability of weapon systems in the network centric warfare. Therefore, the military shelter is required for EMI shielding performance. This study examines the stable measurement points for EMI shielding effectiveness of a military shelter for communication and information. The measurement points were found by analyzing the EMI shielding effectiveness measurement data with data mining technique and process capability analysis. First, a support vector machine was used to separate the measurement point that has stable EMI shielding effectiveness according to set condition. Second, this process was conducted with process capability analysis. Finally, the results of data mining technique were compared with those of process capability analysis. As a result, 24 measurement points with stable EMI shielding effectiveness were found.

하천의 개발 및 보전 계획을 수립하는 데에 있어 자연하천의 부유사량 및 총유사량을 계측하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 우리나라에서는 매년 국내 자연하천을 대상으로 부유사량을 실측하고 실측 부유사량을 바탕으로 수정 아인슈타인 방법을 적용해 총유사량을 산정하고 있으나 이 또한 홍수기에 국한되어 있다. 가장 일반적인 유사량 계측 방법인 시료 채집에 의한 방법은 많은 노력과 비용을 수반하기 때문에 유사량 관측소와 관측 빈도를 늘릴 수 없는 실정이다. 최근에는 ADCP 음파 신호의 후방산란도가 부유사 농도에 따라 증가한다는 성질을 이용해 부유사 농도 계측에 ADCP를 이용하고자 하는 노력이 계속되고 있다. 이러한 특성을 이용해 본 연구에서는 전라남도 나주시에 위치한 남평교 자동유량관측소에 설치된 횡방향 ADCP (H-ADCP)를 대상으로 서포트 벡터 회귀(SVR)를 적용한 실시간 유사량 모니터링 모형을 제안하였다. 여기서 제시하는 유사량산정 모형은 크게 유량과 초음파 산란도를 입력 변수로 해 부유사 농도를 산정하는 서포트 벡터 회귀 모형과 첫 번째 모형으로부터 산정된 부유사 농도와 흐름 정보를 이용해 총유사량을 산정하는 모형으로 구성되어 있다. 개발된 SVR 부유사량 및 총유사량 산정 모형의 정확도가 결정계수(R²) 기준으로 각각 0.82, 0.90 으로 나타났다. 주목할 점은, 본 연구에서 제시하는 SVR 모형을 이용해 멱함수 기반 유사량 관계식으로는 예측할 수 없는 유사량의 이력현상을 재현해낼 수 있다는 것이다. 본 연구에서 제시하는 H-ADCP 기반 총유사량 모니터링 방법은 기존 자동 유량 관측소 시설을 그대로 이용할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 따라서 실무 적용 시 낮은 추가비용으로 양질의 유사량 모니터링이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

Quantile regression has become a more widely used technique to describe the distribution of a response variable given a set of explanatory variables. This paper proposes a novel modelfor quantile regression using doubly penalized kernel machine with support vector machine iteratively reweighted least squares (SVM-IRWLS). To make inference about the shape of a population distribution, the widely popularregression, would be inadequate, if the distribution is not approximately Gaussian. We present a likelihood-based approach to the estimation of the regression quantiles that uses the asymmetric Laplace density.

Support Vector Machines (SVMs) provide a powerful performance of the learning system. Generally, SVMs tend to make overfitting. For the purpose of overcoming this difficulty, the definition of soft margin has been introduced. In this case, it causes another difficulty to decide the weight for slack variables reflecting soft margin classifiers. Especially, the error of soft margin algorithm can be bounded by a target margin and some norms of the slack vector. In this paper, we formulate a new soft margin algorithm considering the bound of corruption by noise in data directly. Additionally, through a numerical example, we compare the proposed method with a conventional soft margin algorithm.

A level set tree provides a useful representation of a multidimensional density function. Visualizing the data structure as a tree offers many advantages for data analysis and clustering. In this paper, we present a level set tree estimation algorithm for use with a set of data points. The proposed algorithm creates a level set tree from a family of level sets estimated over a whole range of levels from zero to infinity. Instead of estimating density function then thresholding, we directly estimate the density level sets using one-class support vector machines (OC-SVMs). The level set estimation is facilitated by the OC-SVM solution path algorithm. We demonstrate the proposed level set tree algorithm on benchmark data sets.
