Locality Preserving Projections for Grassmann manifold
Learning on Grassmann manifold has become popular in many computer vision
tasks, with the strong capability to extract discriminative information for
imagesets and videos. However, such learning algorithms particularly on
high-dimensional Grassmann manifold always involve with significantly high
computational cost, which seriously limits the applicability of learning on
Grassmann manifold in more wide areas. In this research, we propose an
unsupervised dimensionality reduction algorithm on Grassmann manifold based on
the Locality Preserving Projections (LPP) criterion. LPP is a commonly used
dimensionality reduction algorithm for vector-valued data, aiming to preserve
local structure of data in the dimension-reduced space. The strategy is to
construct a mapping from higher dimensional Grassmann manifold into the one in
a relative low-dimensional with more discriminative capability. The proposed
method can be optimized as a basic eigenvalue problem. The performance of our
proposed method is assessed on several classification and clustering tasks and
the experimental results show its clear advantages over other Grassmann based
algorithms.Comment: Accepted by IJCAI 201
Hashing for Similarity Search: A Survey
Similarity search (nearest neighbor search) is a problem of pursuing the data
items whose distances to a query item are the smallest from a large database.
Various methods have been developed to address this problem, and recently a lot
of efforts have been devoted to approximate search. In this paper, we present a
survey on one of the main solutions, hashing, which has been widely studied
since the pioneering work locality sensitive hashing. We divide the hashing
algorithms two main categories: locality sensitive hashing, which designs hash
functions without exploring the data distribution and learning to hash, which
learns hash functions according the data distribution, and review them from
various aspects, including hash function design and distance measure and search
scheme in the hash coding space
Nonlinear Supervised Dimensionality Reduction via Smooth Regular Embeddings
The recovery of the intrinsic geometric structures of data collections is an
important problem in data analysis. Supervised extensions of several manifold
learning approaches have been proposed in the recent years. Meanwhile, existing
methods primarily focus on the embedding of the training data, and the
generalization of the embedding to initially unseen test data is rather
ignored. In this work, we build on recent theoretical results on the
generalization performance of supervised manifold learning algorithms.
Motivated by these performance bounds, we propose a supervised manifold
learning method that computes a nonlinear embedding while constructing a smooth
and regular interpolation function that extends the embedding to the whole data
space in order to achieve satisfactory generalization. The embedding and the
interpolator are jointly learnt such that the Lipschitz regularity of the
interpolator is imposed while ensuring the separation between different
classes. Experimental results on several image data sets show that the proposed
method outperforms traditional classifiers and the supervised dimensionality
reduction algorithms in comparison in terms of classification accuracy in most
settings
Generalized Multi-manifold Graph Ensemble Embedding for Multi-View Dimensionality Reduction
In this paper, we propose a new dimension reduction (DR) algorithm called ensemble graph-based locality preserving projections (EGLPP); to overcome the neighborhood size k sensitivity in locally preserving projections (LPP). EGLPP constructs a homogeneous ensemble of adjacency graphs by varying neighborhood size k and finally uses the integrated embedded graph to optimize the low-dimensional projections. Furthermore, to appropriately handle the intrinsic geometrical structure of the multi-view data and overcome the dimensionality curse, we propose a generalized multi-manifold graph ensemble embedding framework (MLGEE). MLGEE aims to utilize multi-manifold graphs for the adjacency estimation with automatically weight each manifold to derive the integrated heterogeneous graph. Experimental results on various computer vision databases verify the effectiveness of proposed EGLPP and MLGEE over existing comparative DR methods
