We investigate how to learn a kernel matrix for high dimensional data that lies on or near a low dimensional manifold. Noting that the kernel matrix implicitly maps the data into ...
An important class of image data sets depict an object undergoing deformation. When there are only a few underlying causes of the deformation, these images have a natural lowdimen...
In this paper, we propose the concept of Manifold of Facial Expression based on the observation that images of a subject’s facial expressions define a smooth manifold in the hig...
Scientists find that the human perception is based on the similarity on the manifold of data set. Isometric feature mapping (Isomap) is one of the representative techniques of man...

In this paper, we introduce a generic framework for semi-supervised kernel learning. Given pairwise (dis-)similarity constraints, we learn a kernel matrix over the data that respe...
