This paper deals with the estimations of kernel ridge regression when the responses are subject to randomly right censoring. The iterative reweighted least squares(IRWLS) procedure is employed to treat censored observations. The hyperparameters of model which affect the performance of the proposed procedure are selected by a generalized cross validation(GCV) function. Experimental results are then presented which indicate the performance of the proposed procedure.

e-insensitive support vector regression(e-SVR) is capable of providing more complete description of the linear and nonlinear relationships among random variables. In this paper we propose an iterative reweighted least squares(IRWLS) procedure to solve the quadratic problem of e-SVR with a modified loss function. Furthermore, we introduce the generalized approximate cross validation function to select the hyperparameters which affect the performance of e-SVR. Experimental results are then presented which illustrate the performance of the IRWLS procedure for e-SVR.

Support vector classification(SVC) provides more complete description of the linear and nonlinear relationships between input vectors and classifiers. In this paper we propose to solve the optimization problem of SVC with a modified hinge loss function, which enables to use an iterative reweighted least squares(IRWLS) procedure. We also introduce the approximate cross validation function to select the hyperparameters which affect the performance of SVC. Experimental results are then presented which illustrate the performance of the proposed procedure for classification.

Support vector machine(SVM) is capable of providing a more complete description of the linear and nonlinear relationships among random variables. In this paper we propose a sparse kernel regression(SKR) to overcome a weak point of SVM, which is, the steep growth of the number of support vectors with increasing the number of training data. The iterative reweighted least squares(IRWLS) procedure is used to solve the optimal problem of SKR with a Laplacian prior. Furthermore, the generalized cross validation(GCV) function is introduced to select the hyper-parameters which affect the performance of SKR. Experimental results are then presented which illustrate the performance of the proposed procedure.

Partially linear regression is capable of providing more complete description of the linear and nonlinear relationships among random variables. In support vector regression (SVR) the hyper-parameters are known to affect the performance of regression. In this paper we propose an iterative reweighted least squares (IRWLS) procedure to solve the quadratic problem of partially linear support vector regression with a modified loss function, which enables us to use the generalized approximate cross validation function to select the hyper-parameters. Experimental results are then presented which illustrate the performance of the partially linear SVR using IRWLS procedure.

Support vector quantile regression(SVQR) is capable of providing more complete description of the linear and nonlinear relationships among random variables. In this paper we propose an iterative reweighted least squares(IRWLS) procedure to solve the problem of SVQR with a weighted quadratic loss function. Furthermore, we introduce the generalized approximate cross validation function to select the hyperparameters which affect the performance of SVQR. Experimental results are then presented which illustrate the performance of the IRWLS procedure for SVQR.

Support vector classification (SVC) provides more complete description of the lin-ear and nonlinear relationships between input vectors and classifiers. In this paper. we propose the sparse kernel classifier to solve the optimization problem of classification with a modified hinge loss function and absolute loss function, which provides the efficient computation and the sparsity. We also introduce the generalized cross validation function to select the hyper-parameters which affects the classification performance of the proposed method. Experimental results are then presented which illustrate the performance of the proposed procedure for classification.
