The typical maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) proves to be highly unstable when dealing with linearly linked regressors. Eventually, the accuracy of the model may suffer because of inflated variances and inaccurate coefficient estimates. To improve parameter estimation accuracy and combat multicollinearity, this paper suggests an alternative biased estimator for the IGRM that integrates a two-parameter framework. This novel two-parameter estimator is a general estimator that takes the maximum likelihood, ridge, and Stein estimators as special cases. The theoretical characteristics of the estimator, including its bias and mean squared error (MSE), are develop and then go through a thorough theoretical comparison with the previous estimators in terms of the mean square error matrix (MMSE) criterion. Moreover, the optimal values of the biasing parameters for the advised estimator are also obtained. An extensive simulated study and real-world dataset are examined to assess the practical relevance of the proposed estimator. The empirical results show that, in comparison to conventional estimators, including MLE, ridge, and Stein estimators, the suggested estimator considerably lowers the MSE and improves the parameter estimation accuracy. These results illustrate the novel approach's potential for dealing with multicollinearity in IGRM. The continuous development of reliable estimating methods for generalized linear models (GLMs) is aided by these findings.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":15274,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chemometrics","volume":"39 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143925881","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hyperspectral data from 3600 soybean seeds were collected in the range of 395.5–1003.7 nm. First, the potential to qualitatively distinguish the five soybean varieties was assessed using visual cluster analyses based on principal component analysis (PCA), t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding (t-SNE), and uniform manifold approximation and projection (UMAP). Next, the performance of four classification models—random forest (RF), extreme learning machine (ELM), partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), and one-dimensional convolutional neural network (1DCNN)—was compared. Multiplicative scatter correction (MSC) preprocessing significantly improved the recognition effect of all four models, with the 1DCNN model demonstrating the highest accuracy and most stable recognition performance. The effects of feature bands extracted using competitive adaptive reweighted sampling (CARS), variable importance in projection (VIP), and local linear embedding (LLE) on the four models were also compared. The accuracy of all four feature band sets, when combined with the MSC+1DCNN model, exceeded 96% in identifying soybean varieties.

Kernel ridge regression (KRR) has attracted the interest of scholars recently because of its non-iterative methodology for problem solving. KRR is a highly regarded and practical machine learning approach that has successfully tackled classification and regression issues. So is a regression method that uses a nonlinear kernel function to define an inner product in a higher-dimensional transformed space. This allows for generalization performance based on regularization least squares solution. However, the performance of KRR is affected by the choices of the values of the hyper-parameters that define the type of kernel. This has a major processing cost, uses memory, and is also accompanied by poor accuracy performance when studying the prior methods of determining these hyper-parameter values. Thus, the main highlighted enhancement in this paper is the enhancement of the coati optimization algorithm by applying elite opposite-based learning to increase the density of population around the search space to optima for the proper selection of the best hyperparameters. Thus, it is necessary to verify and compare its work with the proposed improvement of KRR in increasing its performance, seven public chemical datasets were used.

While previous studies have employed resampling and feature selection techniques to address data imbalance and enhance classification performance, most approaches have focused on single-algorithm solutions rather than hybrid methodologies. Hybrid algorithms offer distinct advantages by integrating the strengths of multiple techniques, thereby providing more comprehensive and efficient solutions for handling imbalanced data. This study proposes HiBBKA, a novel hybrid algorithm combining radial-based under-sampling with SMOTE (RBU-SMOTE) and an improved binary black-winged kite algorithm (iBBKA) for feature selection. The proposed framework operates through two key phases: First, the RBU-SMOTE resampling method synergistically integrates radial-based under-sampling (RBU) with the synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE), effectively addressing class-imbalance distribution while enhancing the quality of synthesized samples. Second, the enhanced iBBKA feature selection algorithm systematically identifies the most discriminative features critical for classification tasks. We comprehensively evaluate RBU-SMOTE and HiBBKA using multiple classifiers across 16 imbalanced datasets, including real-world medical datasets, with particular emphasis on the minority class performance. Experimental results demonstrate that RBU-SMOTE achieves competitive performance compared to existing resampling methods, while the complete HiBBKA framework significantly outperforms state-of-the-art algorithms in overall classification metrics, particularly in the minority class recognition.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":15274,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chemometrics","volume":"39 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143852899","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
