内容提要:
In the era of big data, large-scale, multi-modal datasets are increasingly ubiquitous, offering unprecedented opportunities for predictive modeling and scientific discovery. However, these datasets often exhibit complex heterogeneity, such as covariate shift, posterior drift, and missing modalities which can hinder the accuracy of existing prediction algorithms. To address these challenges, we propose a novel Representation Retrieval (R2) framework, which integrates a representation learning module (the representer) with a sparsity-induced machine learning model (the learner). Moreover, we introduce the notion of “integrativeness” for representers, characterized by the effective data sources used in learning representers, and propose a Selective Integration Penalty (SIP) to explicitly improve the property. Theoretically, we demonstrate that the R2 framework relaxes the conventional full-sharing assumption in multi-task learning, allowing for partially shared structures, and that SIP can improve the convergence rate of the excess risk bound. Extensive simulation studies validate the empirical performance of our framework, and applications to two real-world datasets further confirm its superiority over existing approaches.
在大数据时代,大规模、多模态数据广泛存在于医疗、金融和互联网等领域,为预测建模和科学发现提供了丰富的信息。然而,这类数据通常具有复杂的异质性,例如协变量分布偏移、后验分布漂移以及模态缺失等问题,给现有机器学习方法带来了巨大挑战,限制了模型的预测性能和泛化能力。针对这一问题,本次悟空体育将介绍一种新颖的表示检索(Representation Retrieval,R2)框架。该框架将表示学习与稀疏机器学习模型有机结合,通过学习具有良好表示能力的数据特征,实现来自不同数据源信息的有效融合。同时,提出了表示学习模型的“可整合性(integrativeness)”概念,并设计了选择性整合惩罚(Selective Integration Penalty,SIP)方法,以进一步提升异构数据融合的效果。理论分析表明,该框架突破了传统多任务学习中完全共享结构的假设,能够有效处理部分共享的数据结构,并进一步提高模型超额风险界的收敛速度。最后,本次悟空体育将结合模拟实验和两个真实数据集的分析结果,展示所提方法在复杂异构数据融合与预测任务中的优越性能。
