On the Predictive Properties of Binary Link Functions
Necla Gunduz, Ernest Fokoue
This paper provides a theoretical and computational justification of the long held claim that of the similarity of the probit and logit link functions often used in binary classifi…
Adaptive Random SubSpace Learning (RSSL) Algorithm for Prediction
Mohamed Elshrif, Ernest Fokoue
We present a novel adaptive random subspace learning algorithm (RSSL) for prediction purpose. This new framework is flexible where it can be adapted with any learning technique. In…
Random Subspace Learning Approach to High-Dimensional Outliers Detection
Bohan Liu, Ernest Fokoue
We introduce and develop a novel approach to outlier detection based on adaptation of random subspace learning. Our proposed method handles both high-dimension low-sample size and…
A Comparison of Classifiers in Performing Speaker Accent Recognition Using MFCCs
Zichen Ma, Ernest Fokoue
An algorithm involving Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCCs) is provided to perform signal feature extraction for the task of speaker accent recognition. Then different class…
An Information-Theoretic Alternative to the Cronbach's Alpha Coefficient of Item Reliability
Ernest Fokoue, Necla Gunduz
We propose an information-theoretic alternative to the popular Cronbach alpha coefficient of reliability. Particularly suitable for contexts in which instruments are scored on a st…
Pattern Discovery in Students' Evaluations of Professors: A Statistical Data Mining Approach
Necla Gunduz, Ernest Fokoue
The evaluation of instructors by their students has been practiced at most universities for many decades, and there has always been a great interest in a variety of aspects of the…
A Taxonomy of Big Data for Optimal Predictive Machine Learning and Data Mining
Ernest Fokoue
Big data comes in various ways, types, shapes, forms and sizes. Indeed, almost all areas of science, technology, medicine, public health, economics, business, linguistics and socia…
Robust Classification of High Dimension Low Sample Size Data
Necla Gunduz, Ernest Fokoue
The robustification of pattern recognition techniques has been the subject of intense research in recent years. Despite the multiplicity of papers on the subject, very few articles…
