Feature Extraction Using an Unsupervised Neural Network
A novel unsupervised neural network for dimensionality reduction that seeks directions emphasizing multimodality is presented, and its connection to exploratory projection pursuit methods is discussed. This leads to a new statistical insight into the synaptic modification equations governing learning in Bienenstock, Cooper, and Munro (BCM) neurons (1982). The importance of a dimensionality redu...

متن کاملImage Compression and Signal Classification by Neural Networks and Projection Pursuits
In this report, two applications of neural networks are investigated. The first one is low bit rate image compression by using neural networks and projection pursuit. The second one is improving the classification accuracy of neural network classifiers by using unlabeled data. In the first part, a novel approach for low bit rate image coding is presented. The image is compressed by first quadtr...
متن کاملImplementing projection pursuit learning
This paper examines the implementation of projection pursuit regression (PPR) in the context of machine learning and neural networks. We propose a parametric PPR with direct training which achieves improved training speed and accuracy when compared with nonparametric PPR. Analysis and simulations are done for heuristics to choose good initial projection directions. A comparison of a projection ...
