非平坦函数概率密度估计

摘要

Aiming at the probability density estimation problem for non-flat functions, this paper constructs a single slack factor multi-scale kernel support vector machine (SVM) probability density estimation model, by improving the form of constraint condition of the traditional SVM model and introducing the multi-scale kernel method. In the model, a single slack factor instead of two types of slack factors is used to control the learning error of SVM, which reduces the computational complexity of model. At the same time, by introducing the multi-scale kernel method, the model can well fit the functions with both the fiercely changed region and the flatly changed region. Through several probability density estimation experiments with typical non-flat functions, the results show that the single slack probability density estimation model has faster learning speed than the common SVM model. And compared with the single kernel method, the multi-scale kernel SVM probability density estimation model has better estimation precision.%针对非平坦函数的概率密度估计问题，通过改进支持向量机（support vector machine，SVM）概率密度估计模型约束条件的形式，并引入多尺度核方法，构建了一种单松弛因子多尺度核支持向量机概率密度估计模型。该模型采用合并的单个松弛因子来控制支持向量机的学习误差，减小了模型的计算复杂度；同时引入了多尺度核方法，使得模型既能适应函数剧烈变化的区域，也能适应平缓变化的区域。基于几种典型非平坦函数进行概率密度估计实验，结果证明，单松弛因子概率密度估计模型比常规支持向量机概率密度估计模型具有更快的学习速度；且相比于单核方法，多尺度核支持向量机概率密度估计模型具有更优的估计精度。
