Extract Mismatch Negativity and P3a through Two-Dimensional Nonnegative Decomposition on Time-Frequency Represented Event-Related Potentials
2010
This study compares the row-wise unfolding nonnegative tensor factorization (NTF) and the standard nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) in extracting time-frequency represented event-related potentials—mismatch negativity (MMN) and P3a from EEG under the two-dimensional decomposition The criterion to judge performance of NMF and NTF is based on psychology knowledge of MMN and P3a MMN is elicited by an oddball paradigm and may be proportionally modulated by the attention So, participants are usually instructed to ignore the stimuli However the deviant stimulus inevitably attracts some attention of the participant towards the stimuli Thus, P3a often follows MMN As a result, if P3a was large…
Information Extraction from Binary Skill Assessment Data with Machine Learning
2021
Strength training exercises are essential for rehabilitation, improving our health as well as in sports. For optimal and safe training, educators and trainers in the industry should comprehend exercise form or technique. Currently, there is a lack of tools measuring in-depth skills of strength training experts. In this study, we investigate how data mining methods can be used to identify novel and useful skill patterns from a binary multiple choice questionnaire test designed to measure the knowledge level of strength training experts. A skill test assessing exercise technique expertise and comprehension was answered by 507 fitness professionals with varying backgrounds. A triangulated appr…
Reduced Order Models for Pricing American Options under Stochastic Volatility and Jump-diffusion Models
2016
American options can be priced by solving linear complementary problems (LCPs) with parabolic partial(-integro) differential operators under stochastic volatility and jump-diffusion models like Heston, Merton, and Bates models. These operators are discretized using finite difference methods leading to a so-called full order model (FOM). Here reduced order models (ROMs) are derived employing proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) and non negative matrix factorization (NNMF) in order to make pricing much faster within a given model parameter variation range. The numerical experiments demonstrate orders of magnitude faster pricing with ROMs. peerReviewed
