متن کاملExpansive competitive learning for kernel vector quantization
In this paper we present a necessary and sufficient condition for global optimality of unsupervised Learning Vector Quantization (LVQ) in kernel space. In particular, we generalize the results presented for expansive and competitive learning for vector quantization in Euclidean space, to the general case of a kernel-based distance metric. Based on this result, we present a novel kernel LVQ algo...
