Patch Alignment for Dimensionality Reduction

Tianhao Zhang, Dacheng Tao, Xuelong Li, Jie Yang·2009·IEEE Transactions on Knowledge and Data Engineering

Abstract

Spectral analysis-based dimensionality reduction algorithms are important and have been popularly applied in data mining and computer vision applications. To date many algorithms have been developed, e.g., principal component analysis, locally linear embedding, Laplacian eigenmaps, and local tangent space alignment. All of these algorithms have been designed intuitively and pragmatically, i.e., on the basis of the experience and knowledge of experts for their own purposes. Therefore, it will be more informative to provide a systematic framework for understanding the common properties and intrinsic difference in different algorithms. In this paper, we propose such a framework, named "patch alignment,” which consists of two stages: part optimization and whole alignment. The framework reveals that 1) algorithms are intrinsically different in the patch optimization stage and 2) all algorithms share an almost identical whole alignment stage. As an application of this framework, we develop a new dimensionality reduction algorithm, termed Discriminative Locality Alignment (DLA), by imposing discriminative information in the part optimization stage. DLA can 1) attack the distribution nonlinearity of measurements; 2) preserve the discriminative ability; and 3) avoid the small-sample-size problem. Thorough empirical studies demonstrate the effectiveness of DLA compared with representative dimensionality reduction algorithms.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
