===== Regression analysis and resampling methods =====
The main aim of this project is to study in more detail various
regression methods, including the Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) method,
Ridge regression and finally Lasso regression.
The methods are in turn combined with resampling techniques like cross-validation.
The methods are in turn combined with resampling techniques.
We will first study how to fit polynomials to a specific
two-dimensional function called "Franke's
function":"http://www.dtic.mil/dtic/tr/fulltext/u2/a081688.pdf". This
is a function which has been widely used when testing various
interpolation and fitting algorithms. Furthermore, after having
established the model and the method, we will employ resamling
techniques such as cross-validation in order to perform a
proper assessment of our models. We will also study in detail the
so-called Bias-Variance trade off.
The Franke function, which is a weighted sum of four exponentials reads as follows
!bt
\begin{align*}
f(x,y) &= \frac{3}{4}\exp{\left(-\frac{(9x-2)^2}{4} - \frac{(9y-2)^2}{4}\right)}+\frac{3}{4}\exp{\left(-\frac{(9x+1)^2}{49}- \frac{(9y+1)}{10}\right)} \\
&+\frac{1}{2}\exp{\left(-\frac{(9x-7)^2}{4} - \frac{(9y-3)^2}{4}\right)} -\frac{1}{5}\exp{\left(-(9x-4)^2 - (9y-7)^2\right) }.
\end{align*}
!et
The function will be defined for $x,y\in [0,1]$. Our first step will
be to perform an OLS regression analysis of this function, trying out
a polynomial fit with an $x$ and $y$ dependence of the form $[x, y,
x^2, y^2, xy, \dots]$. We will also include cross-validation as
resampling technique. As in homeworks 1 and 2, we can use a uniform
distribution to set up the arrays of values for $x$ and $y$, or as in
the example below just a set of fixed
values for $x$ and $y$ with a given step
size. We will fit a
function (for example a polynomial) of $x$ and $y$. Thereafter we
will repeat much of the same procedure using the Ridge and Lasso
regression methods, introducing thus a dependence on the bias
(penalty) $\lambda$.
Finally we are going to use (real) digital terrain data and try to
reproduce these data using the same methods. We will also try to go
beyond the second-order polynomials metioned above and explore
which polynomial fits the data best.
The Python fucntion for the Franke function is included here (it performs also a three-dimensional plot of it)

=== Part a): Ordinary Least Square on the Franke function with resampling ===
We will thus again generate our own dataset for a function $\mathrm{FrankeFunction}(x,y)$ where
$x,y \in [0,1]$ could be defined by random numbers computed with the uniform
distribution. The function $f(x,y)$ is the Franke function. You should explore also the addition
an added stochastic noise to this function using the normal distribution $\cal{N}(0,1)$.

Write your own code (using either a matrix inversion or a singular
value decomposition from e.g., _numpy_ ) or use your code from
homeworks 1 and 2 and perform a standard least square regression
analysis using polynomials in $x$ and $y$ up to fifth order. Find the
confidence intervals of the parameters $\beta$ by computing their
variances, evaluate the Mean Squared error (MSE)

\[ MSE(\hat{y},\hat{\tilde{y}}) = \frac{1}{n}
\sum_{i=0}^{n-1}(y_i-\tilde{y}_i)^2,
\]

and the $R^2$ score function.
If $\tilde{\hat{y}}_i$ is the predicted value of the $i-th$ sample and $y_i$ is the corresponding true value, then the score $R^2$ is defined as
and the $R^2$ score function. If $\tilde{\hat{y}}_i$ is the predicted
value of the $i-th$ sample and $y_i$ is the corresponding true value,
then the score $R^2$ is defined as
!bt
\[
R^2(\hat{y}, \tilde{\hat{y}}) = 1 - \frac{\sum_{i=0}^{n - 1} (y_i - \tilde{y}_i)^2}{\sum_{i=0}^{n - 1} (y_i - \bar{y})^2},
\]
!et
where we have defined the mean value of $\hat{y}$ as
!bt
\[
\bar{y} = \frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=0}^{n - 1} y_i.
\]
!et
Perform a resampling of the data where you split the data in training data and test data. Implement the $k$-fold cross-validation algorithm and/or the bootstrap algorithm
and evaluate again the MSE and the $R^2$ functions resulting from the test data. Evaluate also the bias and variance of the final models using for example equation (7.9) in the textbook of Hastie *et al.*
=== Part b) Resampling techniques ===
Perform a resampling of the data where you split the data in training
data and test data. Here you can write your own function or use the
function for splitting training data provided by _Scikit-Learn_.
This function is called $train\_test\_split$.
It is normal in essentially all Machine Learning studies to split the
data in a training set and a test set (sometimes also an additional
validation set). There
is no explicit recipe for how much data should be included as training
data and say test data. An accepted rule of thumb is to use
approximately $2/3$ to $4/5$ of the data as training data.
Implement the $k$-fold cross-validation algorithm (write your own
code) and and evaluate again the MSE and the $R^2$ functions resulting
from the test data. You can compare your own code with that from
_Scikit-Learn_ if needed.
=== Part b): Ridge Regression with resampling ===
Write your own code for the Ridge method, either using matrix inversion or the singular value decomposition as done in the previous exercise or howework 2 (see also chapter 3.4 of Hastie *et al.*, equations (3.43) and (3.44)). Perform the same analysis as in the previous exercise (for the same polynomials and include resampling techniques) but now for different values of $\lambda$. Compare and analyze your results with those obtained in part a). Study the dependence on $\lambda$ while also varying eventually the strength of the noise in your expression for $\mathrm{FrankeFunction}(x,y)$.
=== Part c): Bias-variance tradeoff ===
=== Part c): Lasso Regression with resampling ===
With a code which does OLS and includes resampling techniques,
we will now discuss the bias-variance tradeoff in the context of
continuous predictions such as regression. However, many of the
intuitions and ideas discussed here also carry over to classification
tasks and basically all Machine Learning algorithms.
This part is essentially a repeat of the previous two ones, but now with Lasso regression. Write either your own code or, in this case, you can also use the functionalities of _scikit-learn_. Give a critical discussion of the three methods and a judgement of which model fits the data best.
Consider a
dataset $\mathcal{L}$ consisting of the data
$\mathbf{X}_\mathcal{L}=\{(y_j, \boldsymbol{x}_j), j=0\ldots n-1\}$.
Let us assume that the true data is generated from a noisy model
!bt
\[
\bm{y}=f(\boldsymbol{x}) + \bm{\epsilon}.
\]
!et
Here $\epsilon$ is normally distributed with mean zero and standard
deviation $\sigma^2$.
In our derivation of the ordinary least squares method we defined then
an approximation to the function $f$ in terms of the parameters
$\bm{\beta}$ and the design matrix $\bm{X}$ which embody our model,
that is $\bm{\tilde{y}}=\bm{X}\bm{\beta}$.
The parameters $\bm{\beta}$ are in turn found by optimizing the means
squared error via the so-called cost function
!bt
\[
C(\bm{X},\bm{\beta}) =\frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=0}^{n-1}(y_i-\tilde{y}_i)^2=\mathbb{E}\left[(\bm{\
y}-\bm{\tilde{y}})^2\right].
\]
!et
Show that you can rewrite this as
!bt
\[
\mathbb{E}\left[(\bm{y}-\bm{\tilde{y}})^2\right]=\frac{1}{n}\sum_i(f_i-\mathbb{E}\left[\bm\
{\tilde{y}}\right])^2+\frac{1}{n}\sum_i(\tilde{y}_i-\mathbb{E}\left[\bm{\tilde{y}}\right])\
^2+\sigma^2.
\]
!et
Explain what the terms mean, which one is the bias and which one is
the variance and discuss their interpretations.
=== Part e) OLS, Ridge and Lasso regression with resampling ===
Discuss the bias and variance tradeoff as function
of your model complexity (the degree of the polynomial) and the number
of data points, and possibly also your training and test data.
At the end, you should pesent a critical evaluation of your results and discuss the applicability of these regression methods to the type of data presented here.
Try to make a figure similar to Fig. 2.11 of Hastie, Tibshirani, and
Friedman, see the references below. You will most likely not get an
equally smooth curve!
=== Part d): Ridge Regression on the Franke function with resampling ===
Write your own code for the Ridge method, either using matrix
inversion or the singular value decomposition as done in the previous
exercise or howework 2 (see also chapter 3.4 of Hastie *et al.*,
equations (3.43) and (3.44)). Perform the same analysis as in the
previous exercises (for the same polynomials and include resampling
techniques) but now for different values of $\lambda$. Compare and
analyze your results with those obtained in parts a-c). Study the
dependence on $\lambda$.
Study also the bias-variance tradeoff as function of various values of
the parameter $\lambda$. Comment your results.
=== Part e): Lasso Regression on the Franke function with resampling ===
This part is essentially a repeat of the previous two ones, but now
with Lasso regression. Write either your own code or, in this case,
you can also use the functionalities of _Scikit-Learn_ (recommended).
Give a
critical discussion of the three methods and a judgement of which
model fits the data best.
=== Part f): Introducing real data ===
With our codes functioning and having been tested properly on a
simpler function we are now ready to look at real data. We will
essentially repeat in part g) what was done in parts a-e). However, we
need first to download the data and prepare properly the inputs to our
codes. We are going to download digital terrain data from the website
URL:"https://earthexplorer.usgs.gov/",
In order to obtain data for a specific region, you need to register as
a user (free) at this website and then decide upon which area you want
to fetch the digital terrain data from. In order to be able to read
the data properly, you need to specify that the format should be _SRTM
Arc-Second Global_ and download the data as a _GeoTIF_ file. The
files are then stored in *tif* format which can be imported into a
Python program using
!bc pycod
scipy.misc.imread
!ec
Here is a simple part of a Python code which reads and plots the data
from such files
!bc pycod
import numpy as np
from imageio import imread
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from mpl_toolkits.mplot3d import Axes3D
from matplotlib import cm
# Load the terrain
terrain1 = imread('SRTM_data_Norway_1.tif')
# Show the terrain
plt.figure()
plt.title('Terrain over Norway 1')
plt.imshow(terrain1, cmap='gray')
plt.xlabel('X')
plt.ylabel('Y')
plt.show()
!ec
If you should have problems in downloading the digital terrain data,
we provide two examples under the data folder of project 1. One is
from a region close to Stavanger in Norway and the other Møsvatn
Austfjell, again in Norway.
Feel free to produce your own terrain data.
=== Part g) OLS, Ridge and Lasso regression with resampling ===
Our final part deals with the parameterization of your digital terrain
data. We will apply all three methods for linear regression as in
parts a-c), the same type (or higher order) of polynomial
approximation and the same resampling techniques to evaluate which
model fits the data best.
At the end, you should pesent a critical evaluation of your results
and discuss the applicability of these regression methods to the type
of data presented here.
