چکیده

In this paper, we propose a feature weighting method that works in both the input space and the kernel-induced feature space. It assumes only the availability of similarity (dissimilarity) information, and the number of parameters in the transformation does not depend on the number of features. Besides feature weighting, it can also be regarded as performing nonparametric kernel adaptation. Experimental results on both toy and real-world datasets show promising results.

یادگیری نیمه نظارتی کرنل مرکب با استفاده از تکنیک‌های یادگیری معیار فاصله

Distance metric has a key role in many machine learning and computer vision algorithms so that choosing an appropriate distance metric has a direct effect on the performance of such algorithms. Recently, distance metric learning using labeled data or other available supervisory information has become a very active research area in machine learning applications. Studies in this area have shown t...

Composite Kernel Optimization in Semi-Supervised Metric

Machine-learning solutions to classification, clustering and matching problems critically depend on the adopted metric, which in the past was selected heuristically. In the last decade, it has been demonstrated that an appropriate metric can be learnt from data, resulting in superior performance as compared with traditional metrics. This has recently stimulated a considerable interest in the to...

Locality Sensitive Hashing Based Clustering

Definition In learning systems with kernels, the shape and size of a kernel plays a critical role for accuracy and generalization. Most kernels have a distance metric parameter, which determines the size and shape of the kernel in the sense of a Mahalanobis distance. Advanced kernel learning tune every kernel’s distance metric individually, instead of turning one global distance metric for all ...

Learning Metrics via Discriminant Kernels and Multidimensional Scaling: Toward Expected Euclidean Representation

Distance-based methods in machine learning and pattern recognition have to rely on a metric distance between points in the input space. Instead of specifying a metric a priori, we seek to learn the metric from data via kernel methods and multidimensional scaling (MDS) techniques. Under the classification setting, we define discriminant kernels on the joint space of input and output spaces and p...

Metric Learning with Multiple Kernels

Metric learning has become a very active research field. The most popular representative–Mahalanobis metric learning–can be seen as learning a linear transformation and then computing the Euclidean metric in the transformed space. Since a linear transformation might not always be appropriate for a given learning problem, kernelized versions of various metric learning algorithms exist. However, ...

A Note on Gradient Based Learning in Vector Quantization Using Differentiable Kernels for Hilbert and Banach Spaces

Supervised and unsupervised prototype based vector quantization frequently are proceeded in the Euclidean space. In the last years, also non-standard metrics became popular. For classification by support vector machines, Hilbert or Banach space representations are very successful based on so-called kernel metrics. In this paper we give the mathematical justification that gradient based learning...
