【EE425X线性表达式】Homework 1b: Linear Regression part 2.
EE425X - Machine Learning: A Signal Processing Perspective
Homework 1 focused on learning the parameter θ for linear regression. In this homework we will first understand
how to use the learnt parameter to predict the output for a given query input. We will also understand
bias-variance tradeoff and how to decide the model dimension when limited training data is available. This
HW will rely heavily on the code from the previous homework.
Generate Data Code: Generate m + mtest data points satisfying
y = θ
Tx + e
with θ being ONE fixed n length vector for all of them. Use n = 100, θ = [100, ?99, 98, ?97...1]0, σ2e = 0.01||θ||22,e ～ N (0, σ2e), x ～ N (0, I), and assume mutual independence of the different inputs and noise values (e).

  1. Use code from Homework 1 (using any one approach is okay) to learn θ. Vary m and show a plot of both
    estimation error in θ,||θ ? ?θ||22/||θ||2
    and a second plot of the “Monte Carlo estimate” of the prediction error on the test data (test data MSE).
    Normalized-Test-MSE := E[(ytest ? y?)2]/E[y2test], with ?y := ?θ
    Txtest
    Monte Carlo estimate means: compute (ytest ?y?)2
    for mtest different input-output pairs and then average
    the result.
    (a) Vary m: use m = 80, m = 100, m = 120, m = 400. If your code is unable to return an estimate of θ,
    you can report the errors to be ∞ (and for the plot just use a large value say 100000 to replace ∞.
    (b) Repeat this experiment with σ2e = 0.1||θ||22.
    Thus this part will produce four plots.
  2. In this second part, suppose you have only m = 80 training data points satisfying y = θ
    Tx + e, with
    n = 100. Notice n is the same as in the first part. I had a typo earlier which has now been fixed.
    What you will have concluded from part 1 is that you cannot learn θ correctly in this case because m is
    even smaller than n.
    Let us assume you do not have the option to increase m. What can you do? All you can do is reduce n
    to a value nsmall ≤ m. Experiment with different values of nsmall to come up with the best one. Do this
    experiment for two values of σ2e: σ2e = 0.01||θ||22and σ2e = 0.1||θ||22.
    How to decide which entries of x to throw away? For now, just throw away the last n?nsmall + 1 entries.
    So for nsmall = 1, let xsmall be just the first entry, and so on. So for nsmall = 30 for example, xsmall
    will be the first 30 entries of x. There are many other better ways which we will learn about later in the
    course.
    Start with nsmall = 1 and keep increasing its value and each time compute Normalized-Test-MSE by
    learning a value of θ first (using m = 80 of course). Obtain a plot. Use the plot and what you learn in
    class to decide what value of nsmall is best.
  3. Interpret your results based on the Bias-Variance tradeoff discussion. See Section 11 of Summary-Notes
    and what will be taught in the next few classes.
