Summary: This study proposes an improved interpolation-based RDPCA method, which takes the PWV derived from ERA5 as an additional aid, to interpolate missing data in precipitable water vapor derived from global navigation satellite systems. The performance of the IRDPCA is compared with RDPCA and DINEOF using simulation experiments, and the results demonstrate the superior performance of the IRDPCA in both the heterogeneous and homogeneous cases. Furthermore, these methods are also applied to the interpolation of the real GNSS-PWV, and the interpolated GNSS-PWV using the IRDPCA is not impacted by the systematic discrepancies in the ERA-PWV and agrees well with the original data.

Summary: This study investigates the main components of air pollutants by using detrending moving-average cross-correlation analysis (DMCA) and principal component analysis (PCA). The advantages of this method are illustrated through comparative numerical analysis with traditional PCA. The results show that DMCA-based PCA provides more reliable principal components in the small and medium scale range, and is relatively immune to additive trend and non-stationarity. In addition, the study examines the utility of DMCA-based PCA in natural complex systems using seasonal air pollutant data collected in Beijing. The findings reveal that PM2.5, PM10, and CO are the most significant factors affecting air quality in Beijing, with O3 as a secondary pollutant across the four seasons. The stability of the principal component contributions is highest in winter and second highest in autumn. These results, which can be explained physically, demonstrate the usefulness of DMCA-based PCA in addressing non-stationary signals.

Summary: Traditional principal component analysis (PCA) assumes homogeneity in global navigation satellite system (GNSS) time series, requiring restoration of missing data prior to analysis. To directly process incomplete and heterogeneous GNSS position time series, this study introduces extended PCA (EPCA) and weighted EPCA approaches to estimate missing values based on best low-rank approximation in the spatiotemporal domain. The proposed methods successfully extract common mode errors (CMEs) from real GNSS position time series of 24 stations in North China. Comparative analysis against modified PCA (MPCA) demonstrates that EPCA outperforms MPCA in extracting CMEs, reducing noise, and improving site velocity estimates. Weighted EPCA and weighted MPCA also outperform their unweighted counterparts, with the former showing superior performance. Additionally, EPCA exhibits computational efficiency by requiring estimation of fewer unknowns compared to MPCA.

Summary: Time-series data are widely studied in machine learning and data analysis for classification and clustering. However, most existing methods do not fully utilize the time-dependency information of the data. This study proposes a new method that extends principal component analysis to cross-autocorrelation matrices at different time lags to capture the main dynamic structure of multivariate time series. Experimental results on simulated data and a sign language dataset demonstrate the effectiveness and advantages of the proposed method.

Summary: This paper proposes a more comprehensive mathematical model to correctly judge the category of ancient glass products whose chemical composition changes due to weathering. The author systematically analyzes the surface weathering of glass relics and its correlation with three properties, establishing a multivariable time-series model to predict the chemical-composition content before weathering. Through one-way analysis of variance for subclassification and principal component analysis, the reasonable prediction of the chemical-composition content and classification is provided, which can be used in the protection of cultural relics, historical research, and other fields.

Summary: Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed female malignancy worldwide. Recent developments in deep convolutional neural networks have shown promising performance for breast cancer detection and classification. However, biased features can be learned due to variations in appearance and small datasets. To address this issue, a densely connected convolutional network (DenseNet) was trained using texture features representing different physical morphological representations as inputs. The use of connectivity estimation and nearest neighbors improved the network's unbiased prediction. The approach achieved higher diagnostic accuracy and provided visual explanations for model predictions.
