A New Approach to Robust Partial Least Squares Regression Analysis
Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MATHEMATICS TRENDS AND TECHNOLOGY - Year 2014, Vol 9, Issue 3
Abstract
Partial Least Squares Regression (PLSR) is a linear regression technique developed to relate many independent variables to one or several dependent variables. Robust methods are introduced to reduce or remove the effects of outlying data points. In the previous studies in robust PLSR field it has been mentioned that if the sample covariance matrix is properly robustified further robustification of the linear regression steps of the PLS1 algorithm (PLSR with univariate dependent variable) becomes unnecessary. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to propose a new approach to robust PLSR based on statistical procedures for covariance matrix robustification by selecting the well-known S-estimators. Both simulation results and an analysis on a real data set, which is used in robust PLSR literature frequently, showing the effectiveness, success in fitting to regular data points and predictive power of the new proposed robust PLSR method.

On Most Generalized Topologies on a Non Empty Set
The purpose of this paper is to introduce a notion of continuity called (G ,D)- continuity between two non empty sets X and Y, and its relationships with other functions are studied.
Fixed points for α-ᴪ Contractive Mapping in 2-Metric spaces
In this paper, we introduce the notion of α-ᴪ contractive type mappings in 2-metric spaces and establish fixed point theorems for these mappings.
Fuzzy Transportation Problem Using Improved Fuzzy Russells Method
In this paper, we investigate the new idea of optimal solution of squared triangular and trapezoidal fuzzy number via fuzzy russal’s method. This method is a modification of yager’s ranking method. A new algorithm is inv...
