Multiclass Semi-Supervised Learning on Graphs using Ginzburg-Landau Functional Minimization
We present a graph-based variational algorithm for classification of
high-dimensional data, generalizing the binary diffuse interface model to the
case of multiple classes. Motivated by total variation techniques, the method
involves minimizing an energy functional made up of three terms. The first two
terms promote a stepwise continuous classification function with sharp
transitions between classes, while preserving symmetry among the class labels.
The third term is a data fidelity term, allowing us to incorporate prior
information into the model in a semi-supervised framework. The performance of
the algorithm on synthetic data, as well as on the COIL and MNIST benchmark
datasets, is competitive with state-of-the-art graph-based multiclass
segmentation methods.Comment: 16 pages, to appear in Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Science

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
