Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) is a popular feature extraction technique for face recognition. However, It often suffers from the small sample size problem when dealing with t...
Regularized kernel discriminant analysis (RKDA) performs linear discriminant analysis in the feature space via the kernel trick. Its performance depends on the selection of kernel...
Clustering is one of the most widely used statistical tools for data analysis. Among all existing clustering techniques, k-means is a very popular method because of its ease of pr...
In this paper, a novel subspace learning method, semi-supervised marginal discriminant analysis (SMDA), is proposed for classification. SMDA aims at maintaining the intrinsic neig...
Abstract. Motivated by the analogies to statistical physics, the deterministic annealing (DA) method has successfully been demonstrated in a variety of application. In this paper, ...
