Application of Linear Discriminant Analysis in Dimensionality Reduction for Hand Motion Classification
The classification of upper-limb movements based on surface electromyography (EMG) signals is an important issue in the control of assistive devices and rehabilitation systems. Increasing the number of EMG channels and features in order to increase the number of control commands can yield a high dimensional feature vector. To cope with the accuracy and computation problems associated with high dimensionality, it is commonplace to apply a processing step that transforms the data to a space of significantly lower dimensions with only a limited loss of useful information. Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) has been successfully applied as an EMG feature projection method. Recently, a number of extended LDA-based algorithms have been proposed, which are more competitive in terms of both classification accuracy and computational costs/times with classical LDA. This paper presents the findings of a comparative study of classical LDA and five extended LDA methods. From a quantitative comparison based on seven multi-feature sets, three extended LDA-based algorithms, consisting of uncorrelated LDA, orthogonal LDA and orthogonal fuzzy neighborhood discriminant analysis, produce better class separability when compared with a baseline system (without feature projection), principle component analysis (PCA), and classical LDA. Based on a 7-dimension time domain and time-scale feature vectors, these methods achieved respectively 95.2% and 93.2% classification accuracy by using a linear discriminant classifier
Tensor Networks for Dimensionality Reduction and Large-Scale Optimizations. Part 2 Applications and Future Perspectives
Part 2 of this monograph builds on the introduction to tensor networks and
their operations presented in Part 1. It focuses on tensor network models for
super-compressed higher-order representation of data/parameters and related
cost functions, while providing an outline of their applications in machine
learning and data analytics. A particular emphasis is on the tensor train (TT)
and Hierarchical Tucker (HT) decompositions, and their physically meaningful
interpretations which reflect the scalability of the tensor network approach.
Through a graphical approach, we also elucidate how, by virtue of the
underlying low-rank tensor approximations and sophisticated contractions of
core tensors, tensor networks have the ability to perform distributed
computations on otherwise prohibitively large volumes of data/parameters,
thereby alleviating or even eliminating the curse of dimensionality. The
usefulness of this concept is illustrated over a number of applied areas,
including generalized regression and classification (support tensor machines,
canonical correlation analysis, higher order partial least squares),
generalized eigenvalue decomposition, Riemannian optimization, and in the
optimization of deep neural networks. Part 1 and Part 2 of this work can be
used either as stand-alone separate texts, or indeed as a conjoint
comprehensive review of the exciting field of low-rank tensor networks and
tensor decompositions.Comment: 232 page

The Singular Value Decomposition, Applications and Beyond
The singular value decomposition (SVD) is not only a classical theory in
matrix computation and analysis, but also is a powerful tool in machine
learning and modern data analysis. In this tutorial we first study the basic
notion of SVD and then show the central role of SVD in matrices. Using
majorization theory, we consider variational principles of singular values and
eigenvalues. Built on SVD and a theory of symmetric gauge functions, we discuss
unitarily invariant norms, which are then used to formulate general results for
matrix low rank approximation. We study the subdifferentials of unitarily
invariant norms. These results would be potentially useful in many machine
learning problems such as matrix completion and matrix data classification.
Finally, we discuss matrix low rank approximation and its recent developments
such as randomized SVD, approximate matrix multiplication, CUR decomposition,
and Nystrom approximation. Randomized algorithms are important approaches to
large scale SVD as well as fast matrix computations
