Numerical Computation in Contemporary Research

Numerical computation is a crucial component of scientific computing, data analysis, and algorithm development. In the context of the project outlined above, our group aims to explore a specific numerical computation approach that applies multivariate analysis to real-world datasets. We are particularly interested in the non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) technique, which has shown efficiency in various applications, including image processing, audio signal processing, and social media analytics.

1. Introduction

The rapid growth of data in the digital age has led to an increasing demand for advanced techniques to analyze and interpret complex information. Numerical computation provides a framework for developing algorithms that can process vast amounts of data efficiently. Our project seeks to develop a deeper understanding of NMF and its applications while addressing the challenges associated with high-dimensional data. The significance of this project lies in its potential to enhance existing methodologies for analyzing data from diverse fields, including economics, engineering, and social sciences.

2. Related Work

Numerous studies have explored the applications of NMF and other multivariate analysis techniques. One prominent work by Lee and Seung (1999) introduced NMF as a novel data analysis method by decomposing data matrices into non-negative factors, enabling better interpretability. A more recent study by Hoyer (2004) focused on using NMF for image analysis, demonstrating its ability to extract features from a dataset efficiently. Additionally, research by Cichocki et al. (2010) illustrated the versatility of NMF in various applications, including audio source separation. These foundational studies will guide our exploration of NMF in our numerical computation project.

3. Method

Our project will utilize Python as the primary programming language, leveraging libraries such as NumPy, SciPy, and scikit-learn for implementing the NMF algorithm. Our proposed method involves selecting a suitable dataset, preprocessing it to handle missing values and normalize features, and then applying NMF to extract latent factors. We aim to explore enhancements to traditional NMF approaches, such as implementing regularization techniques to improve robustness in the face of noisy data. Additionally, we will conduct comparative analyses using other multivariate analysis methods, including principal component analysis (PCA) and independent component analysis (ICA).

4. Experiment and Dataset

To validate our method, we plan to utilize publicly available datasets relevant to our analytical objectives. Suitable datasets may include image repositories from the CIFAR-10 dataset or sound datasets from the UrbanSound dataset. We will split each dataset into training and testing sets to evaluate the performance of our NMF model in capturing essential features. The effectiveness of our implementation will be gauged by metrics such as reconstruction error and computational efficiency.

5. Timeline

Our project will adhere to the following timeline: The initial research phase and proposal development will take place over the next month. In this phase, we will conduct a comprehensive literature review and finalize our dataset selection. Over the following month, we will perform data preprocessing, implement NMF, and compare it with other multivariate methods. Finally, we will analyze the results, prepare our final report, and prepare for the presentation scheduled for December.
