引智计划系列讲座

地点: 电信楼5-406会议室
报告人: 霍晓明, 副教授, 佐治亚理工学院工业与系统工程系
题目: Towards Completely-Drive-Driven Functional Estimation
Abstract
Suppose input variable Xi and response yi have the relation: yi = f(Xi) + ？i, where ？i are i.i.d. noises. Furthermore, we assume that Xi’s are ‘adequately’ sampled within a domain Ω and function f(·) is unknown. Estimating f(·) is called functional estimation, and is the objective for many well-known parametric and nonparametric methods. The most influential existing approach follows the following framework: (1) assume that f belongs to a predetermined functional class F; (2) Derive analytic description of the basis function of F in Ω; (3) Turn the functional estimation problem into a quadratic programming problem, for which analytical and numerical solutions are available. This approach runs into difficulty when the domain Ω is irregular, or nonstandard. We have developed a strategy that can circumvent this difficulty. In particular, a method that is completely driven by data is invented to solve the functional estimation problem. We show that nearly all good asymptotic properties of the existing state-of-the-art approaches are inherited by our data-driven approach. These properties include optimal rate of convergence, asymptotic optimality, etc. We use numerical examples to demonstrate better performance of the proposed method when the domain Ω is irregular. This is a joint work with Zhouwang Yang and Huizhi Xie.
