Best Points Selection Procedure for Estimating Location and Scatter in Multivate Data with Application to Discriminant Analysisari
Journal Title: JOURNAL OF ADVANCES IN MATHEMATICS - Year 2014, Vol 7, Issue 3
Abstract
Multivariate data analysis is rely on the two measures namely location and scatter. The most widely used such estimators; sample mean and covariance matrix are extremely sensitive to outliers, then the results obtained with these estimators are inaccurate. Many robust alternatives are established and perform well while handling the data with outliers. But even still a challenging task while handling the large number of cases and/or variables with reference to the features such as dimensionality of data, heterogeneous of data, computing time, adequacy of the results and applications. This paper provides a procedure for the selection of best data points in order to estimate multivariate location and scatter. The obtained results also compared with the established robust procedures such as various MCD algorithmic techniques and MVE by a real environment. The application aspect of the procedure is also executed in the context of discriminant analysis of multivariate grouped data. The results such as apparent error rate, confusion matrix of classical and various robust discriminant procedures are also provided.

Optimal Control of a Fractional Diffusion Equation with Delay
We study a homogeneous Dirichlet boundary fractional diffusion equation with delay in a bounded domain. The fractional time derivative is considered in the left Caputo sense. By means of a linear continuous ope...
The relationship between intensity and stochastic matrices for continuous-time discrete value stochastic non-homogeneous processes with Markov property
The matrices of non-homogeneous Markov processes consist of time-dependent functions whose values at time form typical intensity matrices. For solvingsome problems they must be changed into stochastic matrices. A stochas...
Cauchy sequences and a Meir-Keeler type fixed point theorem in partial metric spaces.
In this paper we prove some new conditions for Cauchy sequences by using the diameter of orbit in partial metric spaces. A fixed point theorem for Meir-Keeler type contractions in this space is established.
RATIONALLY INJECTIVE MODULES
In this work we introduce the concept of rationally injective module, which is a proper generalization of (essentially)-injective modules. Several properties and characterizations have been given. In part of this work, w...
