MultiK-MHKS: A Novel Multiple Kernel Learning Algorithm

In this paper, we develop a new effective multiple kernel learning algorithm. First, we map the input data into m different feature spaces by m empirical kernels, where each generated feature space is taken as one view of the input space. Then through borrowing the motivating argument from Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA) that can maximally correlate the m views in the transformed coordinates, we introduce a special term called Inter-Function Similarity Loss RIF SL into the existing regularization framework so as to guarantee the agreement of multi-view outputs. In implementation, we select the Modification of Ho-Kashyap algorithm with Squared approximation of the misclassification errors (MHKS) as the incorporated paradigm, and the experimental results on benchmark datasets demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm named MultiK-MHKS.
