Document classification is an area of great importance for which many classification methods have been developed. However, most of these methods cannot generate time-dependent classification rules. Thus, they are not the best choices for problems with time-varying structures. To address this...

Ultrahigh dimensional data with both categorical responses and categorical covariates are frequently encountered in the analysis of big data, for which feature screening has become an indispensable statistical tool. We propose a Pearson chi-square based feature screening procedure for...

When functional data are not homogenous, for example, when there are multiple classes of functional curves in the dataset, traditional estimation methods may fail. In this article, we propose a new estimation procedure for the mixture of Gaussian processes, to incorporate both functional and...
