Feature Selection by Joint Graph Sparse Coding
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper takes manifold learning and regression simultaneously into account to perform unsupervised spectral feature selection. We first extract the bases of the data, and then represent the data sparsely using the extracted bases by proposing a novel joint graph sparse coding model, JGSC for short. We design a new algorithm TOSC to compute the resulting objective function of JGSC, and then theoretically prove that the proposed objective function converges to its global optimum via the proposed TOSC algorithm. We repeat the extraction and the TOSC calculation until the value of the objective function of JGSC satisfies pre-defined conditions. Eventually the derived new representation of the data may only have a few non-zero rows, and we delete the zero rows (a.k.a. zero-valued features) to conduct feature selection on the new representation of the data. Our empirical studies demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms several state-of-the-art algorithms on real datasets in term of the kNN classification performance.

Face Recognition using an Affine Sparse Coding approach
Sparse coding is an unsupervised method which learns a set of over-complete bases to represent data such as image and video. Sparse coding has increasing attraction for image classification applications in recent years. But in the cases where we have some similar images from different classes, such as face recognition applications, different images may be classified into the same class, and hen...
متن کاملA Joint Optimization Framework of Sparse Coding and Discriminative Clustering
Many clustering methods highly depend on extracted features. In this paper, we propose a joint optimization framework in terms of both feature extraction and discriminative clustering. We utilize graph regularized sparse codes as the features, and formulate sparse coding as the constraint for clustering. Two cost functions are developed based on entropy-minimization and maximum-margin clusterin...

متن کاملFeature Selection via Joint Embedding Learning and Sparse Regression
The problem of feature selection has aroused considerable research interests in the past few years. Traditional learning based feature selection methods separate embedding learning and feature ranking. In this paper, we introduce a novel unsupervised feature selection approach via Joint Embedding Learning and Sparse Regression (JELSR). Instead of simply employing the graph laplacian for embeddi...
متن کاملImage Classification via Sparse Representation and Subspace Alignment
Image representation is a crucial problem in image processing where there exist many low-level representations of image, i.e., SIFT, HOG and so on. But there is a missing link across low-level and high-level semantic representations. In fact, traditional machine learning approaches, e.g., non-negative matrix factorization, sparse representation and principle component analysis are employed to d...
