This approach may sometimes create discontinuities in analysis fields and produce undesirable spin ups and spin downs. This study explores using incremental analysis updates （IAU） in 4D-Var to reduce the analysis discontinuities. IAU-based 4D-Var has almost the same mathematical formula as conventional 4D-Var if the initial condition increments are replaced with time-integrated increments as control variables. The IAU technique was implemented in the NASA/GSFC 4D-Var prototype and compared against a control run without IAU. The results showed that the initial precipitation spikes were removed and that other discontinuities were also reduced, especially for the analysis of surface temperature.展开更多

Despite convolutional networks’ great successes, their training process relies on a large amount of data prepared in advance, which is often challenging in real-world applications, such as streaming data and concept drift. For this reason, incremental learning (continual learning) has attracted increasing attention from scholars. However, incremental learning is associated with the challenge of catastrophic forgetting: the performance on previous tasks drastically degrades after learning a new task. In this paper, we propose a new strategy to alleviate catastrophic forgetting when neural networks are trained in continual domains. Specifically, two components are applied: data translation based on transfer learning and knowledge distillation. The former translates a portion of new data to reconstruct the partial data distribution of the old domain. The latter uses an old model as a teacher to guide a new model. The experimental results on three datasets have shown that our work can effectively alleviate catastrophic forgetting by a combination of the two methods aforementioned.展开更多

In contrast to the traditional clustering ensemble methods that combine all the obtained clustering results, we propose the adaptive spectral clustering ensemble method to achieve a better clustering solution. This method can adaptively assess the number of the component members, which is not owned by many other algorithms. The component clusterings of the ensemble system are generated by spectral clustering （SC） which bears some good characteristics to engender the diverse committees. The selection process works by evaluating the generated component spectral clustering through resampling technique and population-based incremental learning algorithm （PBIL）. Experimental results on UCI datasets demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can achieve better results compared with traditional clustering ensemble methods, especially when the number of component clusterings is large.展开更多

Induction is inherently risky because it is not truth-preserving. If the clustering is considered as an induction process, the key to build a valid clustering is to minimize the risk of clustering. From the viewpoint of modal logic, the clustering can be described as Kripke frames and Kripke models which are reflexive and symmetric. Based on the theory of modal logic, its properties can be described by system B in syntax. Thus, the risk of clustering can be calculated by the deduction relation of system B and proximity induction theorem described. Since the new proposed framework imposes no additional restrictive conditions of clustering algorithm, it is therefore a universal framework. An incremental clustering algorithm can be easily constructed by this framework from any given nonincremental clustering algorithm. The experiments show that the lower the a priori risk is, the more effective this framework is. It can be demonstrated that this framework is generally valid.展开更多
