Project 1 in FYS-STK4155 Applied data analysis and machine learning. Course taken fall of 2018 by Betina Høyer Wester, Mona Heggen and Henrik Gjestang. More details may be found in the project report.
Goal: Fit polynomials to the two-dimensional Franke's function, defined for x,y in [0, 1].
- Implement a function FrankeFunction(x,y), where x,y are random, uniformly distributed numbers. Optional stochastic noise with N(', infinity)
- Code for standard least square regression analysis using polynomials in x and y up to fifth order.
- Find the confidence intervals of beta by computing their variances. Evaluate the MSE and R^2 score.
- Perform a resampling of the data split in training data and test data. Implement k-fold cross validation and the bootstrap algorithm. Evaluate against MSE and R^2.
- Code for Ridge method, using either matrix inversion or SVD.
- Same analysis as previous exercise, for the same polynomials, but now for different lambda values.
- Study dependence on lambda.
- same as previous. Can use scikit-learn.
- give a critical discussion of the methods, judge which is best.
