In view of the nonlinear characteristics of electroencephalography (EEG) signals collected in the driving fatigue state recognition research and the issue that the recognition accuracy of the driving fatigue state recognition method based on EEG is still unsatisfactory, this paper proposes a driving fatigue recognition method based on sample entropy (SE) and kernel principal component analysis (KPCA), which combines the advantage of the high recognition accuracy of sample entropy and the advantages of KPCA in dimensionality reduction for nonlinear principal components and the strong non-linear processing capability. By using support vector machine (SVM) classifier, the proposed method (called SE_KPCA) is tested on the EEG data, and compared with those based on fuzzy entropy (FE), combination entropy (CE), three kinds of entropies including SE, FE and CE that merged with KPCA. Experiment results show that the method is effective.

This chapter develops and compares the merits of three different data imputation models by using accuracy measures. The three methods are auto-associative neural networks, a principal component analysis and support vector regression all combined with cultural genetic algorithms to impute missing variables. The use of a principal component analysis improves the overall performance of the auto-associative network while the use of support vector regression shows promising potential for future investigation. Imputation accuracies up to 97.4% for some of the variables are achieved.

In this article, principal component analysis method, which is applied to image compression and feature extraction, is introduced into the dimension reduction of input characteristic variable of support vector regression, and a method of joint estimation of near-field angle and range based on principal component analysis dimension reduction is proposed. Signal-to-noise ratio and calculation amount are the decisive factors affecting the performance of the algorithm. Principal component analysis is used to fuse the main characteristics of training data and discard redundant information, the signal-to-noise ratio is improved, and the calculation amount is reduced accordingly. Similarly, support vector regression is used to model the signal, and the upper triangular elements of the signal covariance matrix are usually used as input features. Since the covariance matrix has more upper triangular elements, training it as a feature input will affect the training speed to some extent. Principal component analysis is used to reduce the dimensionality of the upper triangular element of the covariance matrix of the known signal, and it is used as the input feature of the multi-output support vector regression machine to construct the near-field parameter estimation model, and the parameter estimation of unknown signal is herein obtained. Simulation results show that this method has high estimation accuracy and training speed, and has strong adaptability at low signal-to-noise ratio, and the performance is better than that of the back-propagation neural network algorithm and the two-step multiple signal classification algorithm.
