Fast Manifold Learning Based on Riemannian Normal Coordinates

چکیده
We present a novel method for manifold learning, i.e. identification of the low-dimensional manifold-like structure present in a set of data points in a possibly high-dimensional space. The main idea is derived from the concept of Riemannian normal coordinates. This coordinate system is in a way a generalization of Cartesian coordinates in Euclidean space. We translate this idea to a cloud of data points in order to perform dimension reduction. Our implementation currently uses Dijkstra’s algorithm for shortest paths in graphs and some basic concepts from differential geometry. We expect this approach to open up new possibilities for analysis of e.g. shape in medical imaging and signal processing of manifold-valued signals, where the coordinate system is “learned” from experimental high-dimensional data rather than defined analytically using e.g. models based on Lie-groups.

Composition of Local Normal Coordinates and Polyhedral Geometry in Riemannian Manifold Learning
The Local Riemannian Manifold Learning (LRML) recovers the manifold topology and geometry behind database samples through normal coordinate neighborhoods computed by the exponential map. Besides, LRML uses barycentric coordinates to go from the parameter space to the Riemannian manifold in order to perform the manifold synthesis. Despite of the advantages of LRML, the obtained parameterization ...

In this paper, we extend Sasaki metric for tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold and Sasaki-Mok metric for the frame bundle of a Riemannian manifold [I] to the case of a semi-Riemannian vector bundle over a semi- Riemannian manifold. In fact, if E is a semi-Riemannian vector bundle over a semi-Riemannian manifold M, then by using an arbitrary (linear) connection on E, we can make E, as a...
متن کاملA Geometry Preserving Kernel over Riemannian Manifolds
Abstract- Kernel trick and projection to tangent spaces are two choices for linearizing the data points lying on Riemannian manifolds. These approaches are used to provide the prerequisites for applying standard machine learning methods on Riemannian manifolds. Classical kernels implicitly project data to high dimensional feature space without considering the intrinsic geometry of data points. ...
متن کاملRiemannian Manifold Learning for Nonlinear Dimensionality Reduction
In recent years, nonlinear dimensionality reduction (NLDR) techniques have attracted much attention in visual perception and many other areas of science. We propose an efficient algorithm called Riemannian manifold learning (RML). A Riemannian manifold can be constructed in the form of a simplicial complex, and thus its intrinsic dimension can be reliably estimated. Then the NLDR problem is sol...

A manifold with a smooth action of a Lie group G is called G-manifold. In this paper we consider a complete Riemannian manifold M with the action of a closed and connected Lie subgroup G of the isometries. The dimension of the orbit space is called the cohomogeneity of the action. Manifolds having actions of cohomogeneity zero are called homogeneous. A classic theorem about Riemannian manifolds...
