  • Weak-supervision Time-series Analysis

    Creator:
    You, Zeyu
    Abstract:
    Efficient time-series analysis can impact multiple application domains such as motif discovery in gene analysis or music data, extracting spectro-temporal patterns in acoustic scene analysis, or annotating and classifying electrical bio-signals (such as ECG, EEG, and EMG) for medical applications. Time-series analysis involves a variety of tasks. To predict future...

  • Estimation of the order of an autoregressive time series : a Bayesian approach

    Creator:
    Robb, Loretta J.
    Abstract:
    Finite order autoregressive models for time series are often used for prediction and other inferences. Given the order of the model, the parameters of the models can be estimated by least squares, maximum likelihood, or the Yule-Walker method. The basic problem is estimating the order of the model. A number...

    Creator:
    Chen, Kuei-Lin
    Abstract:
    The study evaluates performances of three multiple time series (MTS) forecasting methods; investigates possible improvements in MTS forecasting operations, and proposes a multiple time series based forecasting system. Time series considered are finite, linear, covariance stationary, and discrete. Specific objectives for the thesis were: (a) conducting comparative studies of MTS...

  • Bilinear stochastic processes and time series

    Creator:
    Tang, Zhigiang
    Abstract:
    In engineering, biology, ecology, medicine, economics and social science, some processes are essentially bilinear, and some could be approximated accurately by bilinear processes under certain conditions. In this thesis the bilinear stochastic process and bilinear time series are discussed. Bilinear models essentially are nonlinear; the superposition rule is not valid....

    Abstract:
    Lycopodium alkaloids have shown widespread and noteworthy biological activity, consisting of over 250 known natural products. Moreover, their structural complexity and diversity have attracted considerable attention from numerous laboratories including our own. Recently, we have developed a unified approach that would provides access to numerous, previously unprepared C₁₀-functionalized lycopodium alkaloids....

    Abstract:
    We consider two semiparametric regression models for data analysis, the stochastic additive model (SAM) for nonlinear time series data and the additive coefficient model (ACM) for randomly sampled data with nonparametric structure. We employ the SCAD-penalized polynomial spline estimation method for estimation and simultaneous variable selection in both models. It...

    Abstract:
    In 1979, for each signature for Fuchsian groups of the first kind, Bowen and Series constructed an explicit fundamental domain for one group of the signature, and from this a function on the unit circle tightly associated with this group. In general, their fundamental domain enjoys what has since been...
