This paper presents a new, accurate load forecasting technique robust to fluctuations due to unusual load behavioral changes in buildings, i.e., the potential for small commercial buildings with heterogeneous stores. The proposed scheme is featured with two functional components: data...

Automatic handwritten character recognition is one of the most critical and interesting research areas in domain of pattern recognition. The problem becomes more challenging if domain is handwritten Hindi character as Hindi characters are cursive in nature and demonstrate a lot of similar...

Microarray studies and gene expression analysis have received significant attention over the last few years and provide many promising avenues towards the understanding of fundamental questions in biology and medicine. In this paper, the authors investigate the application of ant colony...

In this paper we will classify patterns using an algorithm analogous to the k-means algorithm and the principal components regression (PCR). We will also present a financial application in which we apply PCR if the points represent the interests for accounts with different terms.

In this paper we will classify patterns using an algorithm analogous to the k-means algorithm and the regression polynomial of the degree k (for instance, if k=1 we obtain the regression line, and if k=2 we obtain the regression parable), and the regression hyper-plane. We will also present a...

Feature selection plays an important role in the successful application of machine learning techniques to large real-world datasets. Avoiding model overfitting, especially when the number of features far exceeds the number of observations, requires selecting informative features and/or...

Several experimental measurements are expressed in the form of one-dimensional profiles, for which there is a scarcity of methodologies able to classify the pertinence of a given result to a specific group. The polarization curves that evaluate the corrosion kinetics of electrodes in corrosive...
