Structural interpretability in SVMs with truncated orthogonal polynomial kernels

We study post-training interpretability for Support Vector Machines (SVMs) built from truncated orthogonal polynomial kernels. Since the associated reproducing kernel Hilbert space is finite-dimensional and admits an explicit tensor-product orthonormal basis, the fitted decision function can be expanded exactly in intrinsic RKHS coordinates. This leads to Orthogonal Representation Contribution Analysis (ORCA), a diagnostic framework based on normalized Orthogonal Kernel Contribution (OKC) indices. These indices quantify how the squared RKHS norm of the classifier is distributed across interaction orders, total polynomial degrees, marginal coordinate effects, and pairwise contributions. The methodology is fully post-training and requires neither surrogate models nor retraining. We illustrate its diagnostic value on a synthetic double-spiral problem and on a real five-dimensional echocardiogram dataset. The results show that the proposed indices reveal structural aspects of model complexity that are not captured by predictive accuracy alone.

Symmetric Truncated Freud polynomials

We define the family of symmetric truncated Freud polynomials $P_n(x;z)$, orthogonal with respect to the linear functional $\mathbf{u}$ defined by \begin{equation*} \langle \mathbf{u}, p(x)\rangle = \int_{-z}^z p(x)e^{-x^4}dx, \quad p\in \mathbb{P}, \quad z>0. \end{equation*} The semiclassical character of $P_n (x; z)$ as polynomials of class $4$ is stated. As a consequence, several properties of $P_n (x; z)$ concerning the coefficients $γ_n (z)$ in the three-term recurrence relation they satisfy as well as the moments and the Stieltjes function of $\mathbf{u}$ are studied. Ladder operators associated with such a linear functional and the holonomic equation that the polynomials $P_n (x; z)$ satisfy are deduced. Finally, an electrostatic interpretation of the zeros of such polynomials and their dynamics in terms of the parameter $z$ are given.

On zero behavior of higher-order Sobolev-type discrete q-Hermite I orthogonal polynomials

In this work, we investigate the sequence of monic q-Hermite I-Sobolev type orthogonal polynomials of higher-order, denoted as $\{\mathbb{H}_{n}(x;q)\}_{n\geq 0}$, which are orthogonal with respect to the following non-standard inner product involving q-differences: \begin{equation*} \langle p,q\rangle_{λ}=\int_{-1}^{1}f\left( x\right) g\left(x\right) (qx,-qx;q)_{\infty }d_{q}(x)+λ\,(\mathscr{D}_{q}^{j}f)(α)(\mathscr{D}_{q}^{j}g)(α), \end{equation*} where $α\in \mathbb{R}\backslash (-1,1)$, $λ$ belongs to the set of positive real numbers, $\mathscr{D}_{q}^{j}$ denotes the $j$-th $q $-discrete analogue of the derivative operator, and $(qx,-qx;q)_{\infty}d_{q}(x)$ denotes the orthogonality weight with its points of increase in a geometric progression. We proceed to obtain the hypergeometric representation of $\mathbb{H}_{n}(x;q)$ and explicit expressions for the corresponding ladder operators. From the latter, we obtain a novel kind of three-term recurrence formula with rational coefficients associated with these polynomial family. Moreover, for certain real values of $α$, we present some results concerning the location of the zeros of $\mathbb{H}_n(x;q)$ and we perform a comprehensive analysis of their asymptotic behavior as the parameter $λ$ varies from zero to infinity.

On a moment generalization of some classical second-order differential equations generating classical orthogonal polynomials

The aim of the work is to construct new polynomial systems, which are solutions to certain functional equations which generalize the second-order differential equations satisfied by the so called classical orthogonal polynomial families of Jacobi, Laguerre, Hermite and Bessel. These functional equations can be chosen to be of different type: fractional differential equations, q-difference equations, etc, which converge to their respective differential equations of the aforesaid classical orthogonal polynomials. In addition to this, there exists a confluence of both the families of polynomials constructed and the functional equations who approach to the classical families of polynomials and second-order differential equations, respectively
