Online Learning with Multiple Operator-valued Kernels
We consider the problem of learning a vector-valued function f in an online
learning setting. The function f is assumed to lie in a reproducing Hilbert
space of operator-valued kernels. We describe two online algorithms for
learning f while taking into account the output structure. A first contribution
is an algorithm, ONORMA, that extends the standard kernel-based online learning
algorithm NORMA from scalar-valued to operator-valued setting. We report a
cumulative error bound that holds both for classification and regression. We
then define a second algorithm, MONORMA, which addresses the limitation of
pre-defining the output structure in ONORMA by learning sequentially a linear
combination of operator-valued kernels. Our experiments show that the proposed
algorithms achieve good performance results with low computational cost
Online Sequential Projection Vector Machine with Adaptive Data Mean Update
We propose a simple online learning algorithm especial for high-dimensional data. The algorithm is referred to as online sequential projection vector machine (OSPVM) which derives from projection vector machine and can learn from data in one-by-one or chunk-by-chunk mode. In OSPVM, data centering, dimension reduction, and neural network training are integrated seamlessly. In particular, the model parameters including (1) the projection vectors for dimension reduction, (2) the input weights, biases, and output weights, and (3) the number of hidden nodes can be updated simultaneously. Moreover, only one parameter, the number of hidden nodes, needs to be determined manually, and this makes it easy for use in real applications. Performance comparison was made on various high-dimensional classification problems for OSPVM against other fast online algorithms including budgeted stochastic gradient descent (BSGD) approach, adaptive multihyperplane machine (AMM), primal estimated subgradient solver (Pegasos), online sequential extreme learning machine (OSELM), and SVD + OSELM (feature selection based on SVD is performed before OSELM). The results obtained demonstrated the superior generalization performance and efficiency of the OSPVM
