Nonparametric discriminant analysis for face recognition Citation
In this paper, we develop a new framework for face recognition based on nonparametric discriminant analysis (NDA) and multiclassifier integration. Traditional LDA-based methods suffer a fundamental limitation originating from the parametric nature of scatter matrices, which are based on the Gaussian distribution assumption. The performance of these methods notably degrades when the actual distr...
متن کاملNonparametric discriminant analysis via recursive optimization of Patrick-Fisher distance
A method for the linear discrimination of two classes is presented. It searches for the discriminant direction which maximizes the Patrick-Fisher (PF) distance between the projected class-conditional densities. It is a nonparametric method, in the sense that the densities are estimated from the data. Since the PF distance is a highly nonlinear function, we propose a recursive optimization proce...
متن کاملRobust Discriminant Analysis Based on Nonparametric Maximum Entropy
In this paper, we propose a Robust Discriminant Analysis based on maximum entropy (MaxEnt) criterion (MaxEnt-RDA), which is derived from a nonparametric estimate of Renyi’s quadratic entropy. MaxEnt-RDA uses entropy as both objective and constraints; thus the structural information of classes is preserved while information loss is minimized. It is a natural extension of LDA from Gaussian assump...
متن کاملDiscriminant Analysis for Fuzzy Random Variables Based on Nonparametric Regression
This communication is concerned with the problem of supervised classification of fuzzy data obtained from a random experiment. The data generation process is modelled through fuzzy random variables which, from a formal point of view, can be identified with a kind of functional random element. We propose to adapt one of the most versatile discriminant approaches in the context of functional data...
متن کاملNonparametric Linear Discriminant Analysis by Recursive Optimization with Random Initialization
A method for the linear discrimination of two classes has been proposed by us in [3]. It searches for the discriminant direction which maximizes the distance between the projected class-conditional densities. It is a nonparametric method in the sense that the densities are estimated from the data. Since the distance between the projected densities is a highly nonlinear function with respect to ...
