We propose a new method of structural equation modeling (SEM) for longitudinal and time series data, named Dynamic GSCA (Generalized Structured Component Analysis). The proposed method extends the original GSCA by incorporating a multivariate autoregressive model to account for the dynamic...

When a linear model is chosen by searching for the best subset among a set of candidate predictors, a fixed penalty such as that imposed by the Akaike information criterion may penalize model complexity inadequately, leading to biased model selection. We study resampling-based information...

Previously, it was taken for granted that features learned for classification can also be used for ranking. However, ranking problems possess some distinctive properties, e.g., the ordinal class labels, which indicates the necessity of developing new feature learning procedures dedicated for...
