Principal Curves : Learning
and submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Computer Science) complies with the regulations of this University and meets the accepted standards with respect to originality and quality. The subjects of this thesis are unsupervised learning in general, and principal curves in particular. Principal curves were originally defined by Hastie [Has84...
متن کاملPrincipal curves with bounded turn
Principal curves, like principal components, are a tool used in multivariate analysis for ends like feature extraction. Defined in their original form, principal curves need not exist for general distributions. The existence of principal curves with bounded length for any distribution that satisfies some minimal regularity conditions has been shown. We define principal curves with bounded turn,...
متن کاملLearning and Design of Principal Curves
Principal curves have been defined as “self consistent” smooth curves which pass through the “middle” of a d-dimensional probability distribution or data cloud. They give a summary of the data and also serve as an efficient feature extraction tool. We take a new approach by defining principal curves as continuous curves of a given length which minimize the expected squared distance between the ...
متن کاملLocally Defined Principal Curves and Surfaces
Principal curves are defined as self-consistent smooth curves passing through the middle of the data, and they have been used in many applications of machine learning as a generalization, dimensionality reduction and a feature extraction tool. We redefine principal curves and surfaces in terms of the gradient and the Hessian of the probability density estimate. This provides a geometric underst...
متن کاملRegularization-free principal curve estimation
Principal curves and manifolds provide a framework to formulate manifold learning within a statistical context. Principal curves define the notion of a curve passing through the middle of a distribution. While the intuition is clear, the formal definition leads to some technical and practical difficulties. In particular, principal curves are saddle points of the mean-squared projection distance...
