This document summarizes Maxwell's equations and describes electromagnetic waves. It shows that Maxwell's equations predict that changing electric fields produce magnetic fields and vice versa, allowing electromagnetic waves to propagate through space without a medium. Plane electromagnetic waves are described with oscillating and perpendicular electric and magnetic fields traveling at the speed of light. The document derives the wave equation for electromagnetic waves and shows they can be described as sinusoidal solutions. It introduces how electromagnetic waves propagate in materials with a refractive index greater than 1.
This document discusses integration in MATLAB. It describes how MATLAB can be used to find both indefinite integrals (anti-derivatives) and definite integrals. The int command is used to find indefinite integrals by calculating the primitive function of an expression. Definite integrals, which calculate the area under a curve between bounds, can also be found using int by specifying the limits of integration. Examples are provided to demonstrate calculating indefinite and definite integrals of common functions in MATLAB.
1. The document discusses tensor analysis and its use in studying the Einstein field equations. It defines key tensors such as the Riemann-Christoffel curvature tensor and its properties including the antisymmetric and cyclic properties.
2. Bianchi identities are derived using a geodesic coordinate system. Taking the covariant derivative of the curvature tensor leads to the Bianchi identities.
3. Other concepts discussed include the Ricci tensor, gradient and divergence of tensors, and the Einstein tensor obtained by contracting the Bianchi identities. The Einstein tensor is related to the Ricci tensor and metric tensor.
This document contains lecture notes on tensor analysis written by R. A. Sharipov as an introduction to tensorial methods for undergraduate physics students. The notes were written in a "do-it-yourself" style to encourage students to derive formulas and prove theorems themselves. It covers preliminary vector concepts, tensors in Cartesian coordinates, tensor fields and their differentiation, and tensor fields in curvilinear coordinates. The author thanks various individuals who attended the classes and provided feedback on the manuscript.
This document describes an extension of AdaBoost called Real AdaBoost that aims to improve performance. It works by selecting a random subset of training examples at each iteration based on their probability weights. It then calculates values for each weak classifier based on how well they classify examples of different labels. The weak classifier that minimizes a given value is selected. The algorithm updates the example weights and combines the weak classifiers to get the final strong classifier, with theoretical guarantees that its error decreases with each iteration.
This document provides an overview of supervised learning and linear regression. It introduces supervised learning problems using an example of predicting house prices based on living area. Linear regression is discussed as an initial approach to model this relationship. The cost function is defined as the mean squared error between predictions and targets. Gradient descent and stochastic gradient descent are presented as algorithms to minimize this cost function and learn the parameters of the linear regression model.
This talk considers parameter estimation in the two-component symmetric Gaussian mixtures in $d$ dimensions with $n$ independent samples. We show that, even in the absence of any separation between components, with high probability, theEMalgorithm converges to an estimate in at most $O(\sqrt{n} \log n)$ iterations, which is within $O((d/n)^{1/4} (\log n)^{3/4})$ in Euclidean distance to the true parameter, provided that $n=\Omega(d \log^2 d)$. This is within a logarithmic factor to the minimax optimal rate of $(d/n)^{1/4}$. The proof relies on establishing (a) a non-linear contraction behavior of the populationEMmapping (b) concentration of theEMtrajectory near the population version, to prove that random initialization works. This is in contrast to previous analysis in Daskalakis, Tzamos, and Zampetakis (2017) that requires sample splitting and restart theEMiteration after normalization, and Balakrishnan, Wainwright, and Yu (2017) that requires strong conditions on both the separation of the components and the quality of the initialization. Furthermore, we obtain the asymptotic efficient estimation when the signal is stronger than the minimax rate.
Runtime Analysis of Population-based Evolutionary AlgorithmsPer Kristian Lehre
Populations are at the heart of evolutionary algorithms (EAs). They provide the genetic variation which selection acts upon. A complete picture of EAs can
only be obtained if we understand their population dynamics. A rich theory on runtime analysis (also called time-complexity analysis) of EAs has been
developed over the last 20 years. The goal of this theory is to show, via rigorous mathematical means, how the performance of EAs depends on their
parameter settings and the characteristics of the underlying fitness landscapes. Initially, runtime analysis of EAs was mostly restricted to
simplified EAs that do not employ large populations, such as the (1+1) EA. This tutorial introduces more recent techniques that enable runtime
analysis of EAs with realistic population sizes.
The tutorial begins with a brief overview of the population‐based EAs that are covered by the techniques. We recall the common stochastic selection
mechanisms and how to measure the selection pressure they induce. The main part of the tutorial covers in detail widely applicable techniques tailored to
the analysis of populations.
To illustrate how these techniques can be applied, we consider several fundamental questions: When are populations necessary for efficient
optimisation with EAs? What is the appropriate balance between exploration and exploitation and how does this depend on relationships between mutation and
selection rates? What determines an EA's tolerance for uncertainty, e.g. in form of noisy or partially available fitness?

Seminar Talk: Multilevel Hybrid Split Step Implicit Tau-Leap for Stochastic R...Chiheb Ben Hammouda
The document describes a multilevel hybrid split-step implicit tau-leap method for simulating stochastic reaction networks. It begins with background on modeling biochemical reaction networks stochastically. It then discusses challenges with existing simulation methods like the chemical master equation and stochastic simulation algorithm. The document introduces the split-step implicit tau-leap method as an improvement over explicit tau-leap for stiff systems. It proposes a multilevel Monte Carlo estimator using this method to efficiently estimate expectations of observables with near-optimal computational work.
The document discusses Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods for posterior simulation. MCMC methods generate dependent samples from the posterior distribution using iterative sampling algorithms like the Metropolis algorithm and Gibbs sampler. The Metropolis algorithm uses an accept-reject rule to propose new samples from a jumping distribution and either accepts or rejects them, while the Gibbs sampler directly samples from conditional posterior distributions one parameter at a time. Both algorithms are proven to converge to the true posterior distribution given enough iterations. The document provides details on how to implement the Metropolis and Gibbs sampling algorithms.
This document discusses methods for performing sparse time-frequency representation (STFR) on signals in 2 dimensions. STFR decomposes signals into intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) by finding the sparsest representation of the signal over a redundant dictionary. The 1D version has been implemented successfully, but extending to 2D is challenging due to the need to update in two directions simultaneously. Several attempted algorithms are described, including applying the 1D algorithm to slices of the 2D signal in different directions and averaging the results. The most recent attempt uses bi-directional slicing to overcome issues with previous global approaches.
The document describes the error correction model (ECM) version of Granger causality testing for determining the causal relationship between two non-stationary time series variables. It involves first testing for cointegration between the variables using the Johansen test or Engle-Granger approach. If cointegrated, the ECM version estimates an error correction model and performs Granger causality tests to examine short-run, long-run, and strong causality. The procedure and hypotheses for each test are provided along with the method for calculating the relevant F-statistics.

EM algorithm and its application in probabilistic latent semantic analysiszukun
The document discusses the EM algorithm and its application in Probabilistic Latent Semantic Analysis (pLSA). It begins by introducing the parameter estimation problem and comparing frequentist and Bayesian approaches. It then describes the EM algorithm, which iteratively computes lower bounds to the log-likelihood function. Finally, it applies the EM algorithm to pLSA by modeling documents and words as arising from a mixture of latent topics.
This document summarizes Andrew Ng's lecture notes on supervised learning and linear regression. It begins with examples of supervised learning problems like predicting housing prices from living area size. It introduces key concepts like training examples, features, hypotheses, and cost functions. It then describes using linear regression to predict prices from area and bedrooms. Gradient descent and stochastic gradient descent are introduced as algorithms to minimize the cost function. Finally, it discusses an alternative approach using the normal equations to explicitly minimize the cost function without iteration.
X01 Supervised learning problem linear regression one feature theorieMarco Moldenhauer
1. The document describes supervised learning problems, specifically linear regression with one feature. It defines key concepts like the hypothesis function, cost function, and gradient descent algorithm.
2. A data set with one input feature and one output is defined. The goal is to learn a linear function that maps the input to the output to best fit the training data.
3. The hypothesis function is defined as h(x) = θ0 + θ1x, where θ0 and θ1 are parameters to be estimated. Gradient descent is used to minimize the cost function and find the optimal θ values.
The document discusses the AdaBoost classifier algorithm. AdaBoost is an algorithm that combines multiple weak classifiers to produce a strong classifier. It works by training weak classifiers on weighted versions of the training data and combining them through a weighted majority vote. The weights are updated at each iteration to focus on misclassified examples. The final strong classifier is a linear combination of the weak classifiers.
This document discusses an online EM algorithm and some extensions. It begins by outlining the goals of maximum likelihood estimation, good scaling, processing data incrementally without storage, and simple implementation. It then provides an overview of the topics covered, which include the EM algorithm in exponential families, the limiting EM recursion, the online EM algorithm, using online EM for batch maximum likelihood estimation, and extensions. The document uses a Poisson mixture model as a running example to illustrate the E and M steps of the EM algorithm.
This document discusses algorithms for predictive modeling, including logistic regression. It presents a medical dataset containing measurements of heart patients and whether they survived. Logistic regression is applied to predict survival using maximum likelihood estimation. Numerical optimization techniques like BFGS and Fisher's algorithm are discussed for maximum likelihood estimation of logistic regression. Iteratively reweighted least squares is also presented as an alternative approach.
1) Machine learning techniques can be used to learn priors for solving inverse problems like image reconstruction from limited data.
2) Fully learned reconstruction is infeasible due to the large number of parameters needed. Learned post-processing and learned iterative reconstruction methods provide better results.
3) Learned iterative reconstruction formulates the problem as learning updating operators in an iterative optimization scheme, but is computationally challenging due to the need to differentiate through the whole solver. Future work includes methods to address this issue.
This document discusses the calculus of variations and its application to optimal control problems. It begins by introducing the fundamental problem of finding functions that minimize cost functionals, which are functions of other functions. It then derives the necessary conditions for an extremum by taking variations of the functional. This leads to the Euler-Lagrange equation, the analogue of setting the gradient to zero for functions. The document provides examples of applying these concepts to problems with scalar functions and vector functions, as well as problems with free terminal times.
A set of notes prepared for an introductory machine learning course, assuming very limited linear algebra background, because all linear algebra operations are fully written out. These notes go into thorough derivations of the generalized linear regression formulation, demonstrating how to write it out in matrix form.
1. The document discusses maximum likelihood estimation and Bayesian parameter estimation for machine learning problems involving parametric densities like the Gaussian.
2. Maximum likelihood estimation finds the parameter values that maximize the probability of obtaining the observed training data. For Gaussian distributions with unknown mean and variance, MLE returns the sample mean and variance.
3. Bayesian parameter estimation treats the parameters as random variables and uses prior distributions and observed data to obtain posterior distributions over the parameters. This allows incorporation of prior knowledge with the training data.

Noisy Data

Prof. Stephen Lucci
May 27, 2010
2. Abstract
Boosting is a learning technique which learns strong learning hypothesis from
weak hypothesis. In this paper, we investigate two well known algorithms
namely AdaBoost and BrownBoost with respect to noisy dataset. We run
both algorithms with a non-noisy dataset. Then we introduce artificial noise
in the dataset and compare variability of our result.
3. Introduction
Many of us has played soccer in our early childhood. Kicking the ball
high in the air accurately takes practice. Our coaches may have told us, while
kicking soccer ball high on the air, we need to concentrate on follow through.
That is one of the aspects of kicking the ball accurately. However there are
other variables we need to pay attention to while mastering accurate kick. As
we practice, just concentrating on follow through, we quickly discover angle
of foot, amount of force applied are other techniques for playing soccer. We
all heard the expression ”Practice helps us to achieve perfection”.
Boosting is the same concept as discussed above. Boosting helps us to
achieve a strong learning algorithm from a weak learning algorithm by imply-
ing repetitions. In our soccer scenario, the concept of follow through is our
weak learner and mastering how to kick soccer ball accurately is our strong
learner.
While Boosting enables us to learn strong hypothesis from weak hypoth-
esis, over fitting may happen with noisy dataset. In this paper we are going
to investigate two well know boosting algorithms. We are going to theoreti-
cally and experimentally show BrownBoost works better than Adaboost with
respect to noisy datasets.
Background
PAC
In the heart of Boosting algorithm is PAC learning algorithm. PAC learn-
ing algorithm was introduced by Laslie Valiant. Before we define PAC learn-
ing algorithm, we need to clarify few concepts.
• Let X be an instance space.
• A concept c ∈ X.
• A collection of concepts C ∈ X is a concept class.
• Oracle EX(c, D) is a system to draw an example x using probability
distribution, which gives the correct label c(x).
Now that we have all our notations in place, we can define the PAC
learning algorithm. If an algorithm A given access to oracle EX(c, D), and
input and δ such that Algorithm A outputs hypothesis h ∈ C with error
≤ with probability 1 − δ. If such algorithm works with all c ∈ C, and all
D over X, and for all 0 < < 1/2 and 0 < δ < 1/2 then concept class C is
PAC learnable. Interesting thing here to note, we need to know , δ prior to
executing the algorithm. [1]

4. For any probability distribution D, the error rate of that distribution is
denoted by
t = Pri∼Dt [ht (xi = yi )] = i:ht =yi Dt (i)
WeakLearner is defined by an algorithm which does little better than
random guessing. For any concept, random guesing can be think of having
1/2 chance of predicting it correctly. The amount which weak algorithm
supersedes random guessing is denote by γ. Algorithm A is a weak PAC
learner for C with advantage γ if for any concept c ∈ C, with any distribution
D, for any δ with probability 1 − δ, A outputs a hypothesis h such that
Prx∼D [h(x0 = c(x)] ≤ 1 − γ [1]

AdaBoost
Now we are ready discuss the main two algorithms of our paper. As
mentioned earlier, Boosting is a learning technique which iteratively learns
a strong learner from a weak learner. A booster B learn concept c given
access to oracle EX(c, D) and a weak base learning algorithm A by running
algorithm multiple times. In boosting scenario, weak learning algorithm is
called on training set. Algorithm A outputs a hypothesis. Next round we run
algorithm A again on training set, but this time we make sure algorithm A
concentrate more on examples which A mis-classified in the previous round.
When we go through the above setup multiple times, algorithm A ultimately
outputs a strong hypothesis. We need to ask ourselves few key questions.
How are we going to choose our distribution, so that algorithm A concentrate
more on mis classified examples? Also how are we going to combine all
hypothesis’s into a single hypothesis. We answer these questions below with
our mathematical representation of boosting steps.[1]
Given : (x1 , y1 ), (x2 , y2 ), ·, (xm , ym ) where xi ∈ X, yi ∈ Y = {−1, +1}
initialize D1 (i) = 1/m
for t = 1, ·T
• Train WeakLearner using distribution Dt
• Get base classifier ht = X → R
• choose α ∈ R
• update :
Dt=1 (i) = Dt (i)exp(−αt yi ht (xi ))
Zt
Where Zt is a normalizing factor.
Outputs finalize hypothesis:
H(x) = sign( T αt ht (x)) [1]
t=1

5. There is a key practical limitation to this algorithm. We needed to know
α in advance. The AdaBoost algorithm, introduced by Freund and Schapire,
addressed this difficulty. The algorithm is same as discussed above, but here
we calculate α with respect to the training error. AdaBoost algorithm steps
are described below.
Given : (x1 , y1 ), (x2 , y2 ), ·, (xm , ym ) where xi ∈ X, yi ∈ Y = {−1, +1}
initialize D1 (i) = 1/m
for t = 1, ·T
• Train WeakLearner using distribution Dt
• Get weak hypothesis ht : X → {−1, +1} with error
t = Pr t ∼ Dt [ht (xi ) = yi ]
• Choose αt = 1/2 ln (1−t t )
• Update :
Dt (i) e− αt if ht (xi ) = yi
Dt+1 (i) = ×
Zt eα if ht (xi ) = yi

Dt (i)
= exp(−αt yi ht (xi ))

Where Zt is a normalizing factor.
outputs the final hypothesis :
Hf inal(x) = sign( T αt ht (x))
t=1
The key component of the above AdaBoost description is to come up
with a proper distribution on each trial. In each trial we are assigning more
weight on the mis-classified examples and we are assigning less weight on
the correctly classified examples. The weight we are assigning is by αt =
1/2 ln(1 − t / t ). In the final hypothesis, we are taking the weighted majority
vote of the T weak hypothesis’s.[3]
We have described the steps of AdaBoost but how can we assure that
AdaBoost will ultimately come up with a strong hypothesis?
In AdaBoost algorithm, we assumed that our weak hypothesis did little
better than random guessing by γt . As long as γt is a positive number then
our algorithm will decrease error rate exponentially on each trial run. We
are going to explain this concept in the theorem below.
Theorem 1 • t = 1/2 − γt

• So: ∀: γt > γ > 0
then trainingerrorHf inal < e− 2γ 2 T
[5]
AdaBoost is adaptive and key advantage is that we do not need to know
γ or T in advance. As long as γt is a positive number our error will decrease
exponentially as a function of Training trials.
We will go through simple proof to show the above theorem holds for
training error.
Proof • let f (x) = t αt ht (x) ⇒ Hf inal (x) = sign(f (x))
• Step 1 :

[5]
We just finished deriving the training error bound of Adaboost. We
quickly need to discuss the generalization error of the Adaboost algorithm.
Freund and shapire intially bounded the generalization error of Adaboost
algrithm with respect to sample size m, the vc-dimension d of the weak
hypothesis space and the number of iteration T as following.
Pr[H( x) = y] + O( T d )
m
This bound above suggests that over-fitting can happen with large num-
ber of iterations. However, empirical finding suggested that generalization
error goes down even after larning error reaches zero. Based on this finding
Shapire, re-iterated bound of generalization error with respect to margins of
the training example. The margin of the example (x, y) is defined to be
y t
αt ht (x)
t
αt
Margin is a number in [−1, +1] which is positive only if hypothesis cor-
rectly classifies the example. The generalization error given by Shapire is
given below
d
Pr[margin(x, y) ≤ θ] + O( mθ2 )
This bound is independent of iteration T . In this scenario, margins con-
tinues to increase even after training error reaches zero.
Now that we have proved the upper bound of AdaBoost algorithm, we
come to the main topic of our paper. AdaBoost’s selection strategy and
the notion of combining all hypothesis’s into a single hypothesis, makes this
algorithm poor choice when dealing with noisy dataset. Several empirical
studies and theoretical works have shown that the ability to generalize for
AdaBoost decreases as noise in datasets increases.[2]
BrownBoost
The BrownBoost algorithm was introduced by Freund, as an enhancement
from his earlier Boosting by Majority algorithm. BrownBoost works similarly
as AdaBoost, however there is a core difference between these two algorithms.
BrownBoost rely on the core assumption that example that are repeatedly
mis-classified are noisy data. Thus, BrownBoost will give up on noisy data
and non-noisy dataset will contribute to the final hypothesis.[2]

8. BrownBoost derivation start by fixing the δ to some small value, small

enough that most hypothesis can achieve error 2 − δ. Given a hypothesis h

and a hypothesis error 1 − γ, γ > δ, Freund introduced h with the following

properties.

h(x) = 0, with probability 1−δ

γ
Since δ is very small and error is 1/2 − δ, we can use the same hypothesis
over and over instead of calling weak learner on each iteration until error
becomes larger than 1/2 − δ. Instead of choosing weight proportion to error,
unlike AdaBoost, here we choose weight from the last weak hypothesis with
new altered distribution. This process works because of the well known
notion of “Brownian motion of drift”, which is beyond the scope of this
paper. Thus, we have the name BrownBoost[6]
BrownBoost uses c as a time parameter for how long the algorithm is set
to run. BrownBoost assumes that each hypothesis takes a variable amount
of time t which is directly related to the weight given to the hypothesis α.
The time parameter in BrownBoost is analogous to the number of iterations
T in AdaBoost. [1]
A larger value of parameter c tells BrownBoost that dataset we are dealing
with less noisy and a smaller value tells BrownBoost that we are dealing with
noisy dataset.
During each iteration, a hypothesis is selected with some advantage over
random guessing. This process is same as AdaBoost. The weight of hypoth-
esis α and the amount of time has passed so far are given to algorithm. The
algorithm runs until there is no time left. The final combined hypothesis is
the weighted majority of all hypothesis’s. The key point to note here is the
time parameter and determining how much time left for each iteration. If
there is no time left, unlike AdaBoost, then BrownBoost gives up on that
particular example. BrownBoost steps are described below.
• Input: : (x1 , y1 ), (x2 , y2 ), ·, (xm , ym ) where xi ∈ X, yi ∈ Y = {−1, +1}
• The time parameter c
• initialize: s = c The value of s is the time left in the game.
• ri (xj ) = 0/f orallj The value of ri (xj ) is the margin at iteration i for
example j.

9. while s > 0
2)
• Wi (xj ) = e− (ri (xjc)+s
• Find classifier ht: X → {−1, +1} such that
j Wi (xj )hi (xj )yj
• Find values α, t that satisfy the following equation
2
− (ri (xj )+αi (xj )yj +s−t) )
j hi (xj )yj e c
=0
• Update margin : ri + 1( xj ) = ri (xj ) + αh(xj )yj
• Update time: s = s − t
• Output H(x) = sign( i αi hi (x). [1]
The key thing to note here is that for each example and each class, algo-
rithm maintains a margin. These are initially set to 0, and at each iteration i
they are updated. The hypothesis weight αi are related to margin. Also, we
note that the algorithm will only run while there are time parameter s √ left.
Also, we want to point out that the final training error is is = 1−erf ( c),
where erf is the error function. [4]
Experimental Data
For our experimentation we have Jboost package. Jboost current version
is 2.0. However we used Jboost 1.4 due to the fact that Jboost does not
support BrownBoost in the most recent version. Jboost comes with few
visualization tools, which are extremely useful. The datasets are described
below.
Our dataset came from UCI machine learning repository. Blood-Transfusion
dataset is collected from Twain Blood Transfusion Service. This dataset se-
lected 748 donors at random from the donor database. These 748 donor data,
each one included R (Recency - months since last donation), F (Frequency
- total number of donation), M (Monetary - total blood donated in c.c.),
T (Time - months since first donation), and a binary variable representing
whether he/she donated blood in March 2007. (1 stand for donating blood;
0 stands for not donating blood).

10. We ran our dataset for two algorithms namely AdaBoost and Brown-
Boost. We also ran them with 5 percent artificially introduced noise. We
flip the label within dataset randomly to introduce noise. We ran the Ad-
aBoost algorithm with 3000 iterations. We ran BrownBoost algorithm with
parameter c as 4 minutes. The resulted error rate are listed below in tabular
format.

Discussion of Results and Conclusions
In any supervised learning technique, the biggest challenge is to come
up with dataset. Supervised data is extremely expensive and hard to come
by. In our experimentation we see that the variability of testing error from
noiseless data to noisy data is higher in Adaboost than BrownBoost. However
this is not very conclusive from the tables. One of the reason is that we had
a very small data set we played with. Also, we introduced only 5 percent
noise in the dataset. Creating noisy data manually is time consuming task.
However experimentation reveals that BrownBoost has more capacity to deal
with noisy dataset.
BrownBoost has a very bright future in machine learning arena. We live
in a world full of information where analyzing data and deriving conclusion
from data has become norm in many fields. We can see so many implica-
tions of BrownBoost algorithm in real world scenarios. Spammers are trying
to fool spam detection program by injecting non spam word in the email.
BrownBoost can play a key role treating these email as noisy data and cor-
rectly detect spam. A serial killer who changes killing patter to fool authority
can be predicted with BrownBoost algorithm. We intend to more research on
this topic to find out how to accurately calculate c parameter of BrownBoost.
