SVDgen: SVD with metrics and smoothing approximation

In PTAk: Principal Tensor Analysis on k Modes

SVD with metrics and smoothing approximation

Description

Computes the generalised Singular Value Decomposition, i.e. with non-identity metrics. A smooth approximation can be asked to constraint the components (u and v) to be smooth.

Usage

  SVDgen(Y, D2 = 1, D1 = 1, smoothing = FALSE, nomb = NULL,
                  smoo = list(function(u)ksmooth( 1:length(u), u, kernel = "normal",
                           bandwidth = 3, x.points = (1:length(u)))$y)) 

Arguments

Y	a matrix n \times p
D2	metric in R^p either a vector (p \times 1) or a matrix (p \times p)
D1	metric in R^n either a vector (n \times 1) or a matrix (n \times n)
smoothing	logical if TRUE the smoothing methods in smoo are used
nomb	numeric number of components to extract (typically when smoothing is used less components are used as the screeplot becomes flatter faster)
smoo	list of lists of smoothing functions on a vector of the approriate dimension; if on one dimension it is NA no smoothing will be done for this one; if the length of a list is one the function is used for all components. If only one list in the list it will be used for both dimensions.

Details

The function computes the decomposition X=UL^{1/2}V' where U'D_1U=Id_p and V'D_2V=Id_p and the diagonal matrix L containing no zeros squared singular values. If smoothing a constraint on Least Squares solution is used, then the above decomposition becomes an approximation (unless X belongs to the space defined by the constraints). A Power Method algorithm to compute each principal tensor is used wherein Alternated Least Squares are always followed by a smoothed version of the updated vectors. If a Spline smoothing was used the algorithm would be equivalent to use the traditional penalised least squares at each iteration and could be called Penalised Power Method or Splined Alternated Least Squares Algorithm (SALSA is already an acronym used by Besse and Ferraty (1995) in where a similar idea is developped: but smoothing operates only on variables, and is model based as the Alternating operates on the whole approximation i.e. given the choice of the dimension reduction).

Value

a PTAk object

Note

SVDgen makes use of a non-identity version svd (inbuilt) or svdksmooth which outputs like the inbuilt svd. The smoothing option is also implemented in PTA-kmodes, FCA-kmodes, PCAn and CANDECOMP/PARAFAC. The use of metrics (diagonal or not) allows flexibility of analysis like e.g. correspondence analysis, discriminant analysis, robust analysis. Smoothing option extends the analysis towards functional data analysis, and or outliers protection.

This smoothing penalising approach is theoretically valid for Principal Tensors (here order 2) belonging to a tensor product of separable Hilbert spaces (e.g. Sobolev spaces) see Leibovici and El Maach (1997), and in fact only valid for projection onto this space : this includes polynomial fitting, spline basis fitting ... As you are penalysing the alternating optimisation criterion you also need the to get a robust fit at each iteration to be able to reach stationarity and declare optimisation done. If the smoother is not linear one looses orthogonality of the corresponding components but they are usually not too much correlated and preserving one mode to be unsmoothed insured orthogonality of the whole decomposition. Alternatively keepOrtho insures (as a third step optimisation for each iteration) orthogonality with the previous component (but then the solution is approximatively in the space of constraints).

The flexibility of this function smoothing constraint should be carefully used. The function offers also the choice to change of smoothing (method or parameters) as the number of components grows as in Ramsay and Silverman (1997).
