CMMDKernelSelectionOpt Class Reference

Detailed Description

Implements optimal kernel selection for single kernels. Given a number of baseline kernels, this method selects the one that minimizes the type II error for a given type I error for a two-sample test. This only works for the CLinearTimeMMD statistic.

The idea is to maximise the ratio of MMD and its standard deviation.

IMPORTANT: The kernel has to be selected on different data than the two-sample test is performed on.

Described in Gretton, A., Sriperumbudur, B., Sejdinovic, D., Strathmann, H., Balakrishnan, S., Pontil, M., & Fukumizu, K. (2012). Optimal kernel choice for large-scale two-sample tests. Advances in Neural Information Processing Systems.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

CMMDKernelSelectionOpt ( )

Default constructor

Definition at line 16 of file MMDKernelSelectionOpt.cpp.

CMMDKernelSelectionOpt ( CKernelTwoSampleTest *  mmd,
float64_t  lambda = 10E-5 
)

Constructor that initialises the underlying MMD instance. Currently, only the linear time MMD is supported

Parameters
mmdMMD instance to use
lambdaridge that is added to standard deviation in order to prevent division by zero. A sensivle value is for example 1E-5.

Member Function Documentation

void build_gradient_parameter_dictionary ( CMap< TParameter *, CSGObject * > *  dict)
inherited

Builds a dictionary of all parameters in SGObject as well of those of SGObjects that are parameters of this object. Dictionary maps parameters to the objects that own them.

Parameters
dictdictionary of parameters to be built.

Definition at line 597 of file SGObject.cpp.

CSGObject * clone ( )
virtualinherited

Creates a clone of the current object. This is done via recursively traversing all parameters, which corresponds to a deep copy. Calling equals on the cloned object always returns true although none of the memory of both objects overlaps.

Returns
an identical copy of the given object, which is disjoint in memory. NULL if the clone fails. Note that the returned object is SG_REF'ed

Definition at line 714 of file SGObject.cpp.

SGVector< float64_t > compute_measures ( )
virtual

Overwrites superclass method and ensures that all statistics are computed on the same data. Since linear time MMD is a streaming statistic, just computing all statistics one after another would use different data. This method makes sure that all kernels are used at once

Returns
vector with kernel criterion values for all attached kernels

Implements CMMDKernelSelection.

Definition at line 40 of file MMDKernelSelectionOpt.cpp.

CSGObject * deep_copy ( ) const
virtualinherited

A deep copy. All the instance variables will also be copied.

Definition at line 198 of file SGObject.cpp.

bool equals ( CSGObject *  other,
float64_t  accuracy = 0.0,
bool  tolerant = false 
)
virtualinherited

Recursively compares the current SGObject to another one. Compares all registered numerical parameters, recursion upon complex (SGObject) parameters. Does not compare pointers!

May be overwritten but please do with care! Should not be necessary in most cases.

Parameters
otherobject to compare with
accuracyaccuracy to use for comparison (optional)
tolerantallows linient check on float equality (within accuracy)
Returns
true if all parameters were equal, false if not
