چکیده

Multiple kernel learning (Mkl) uses a convex combination of kernels where the weight of each kernel is optimized during training. However, Mkl assigns the same weight to a kernel over the whole input space. Localized multiple kernel learning (Lmkl) framework extends the Mkl framework to allow combining kernels with different weights in different regions of the input space by using a gating model. Lmkl extracts the relative importance of kernels in each region whereas Mkl gives their relative importance over the whole input space. In this paper, we generalize the Lmkl framework with a kernel-based gating model and derive the learning algorithm for binary classification. Empirical results on toy classification problems are used to illustrate the algorithm. Experiments on two bioinformatics data sets are performed to show that kernel machines can also be localized in a data-dependent way by using kernel values as gating model features. The localized variant achieves significantly higher accuracy on one of the bioinformatics data sets.

Theory for the Localized Setting of Learning Kernels

We analyze the localized setting of learning kernels also known as localized multiple kernel learning. This problem has been addressed in the past using rather heuristic approaches based on approximately optimizing non-convex problem formulations, of which up to now no theoretical learning bounds are known. In this paper, we show generalization error bounds for learning localized kernel classes...

Cancer Detection using Support Vector Machines Trained with Linear Kernels

In this article support vector machines are used for determining is cancer is present in lung, liver and cervix tissue using multiple kernels. The results indicate that linear kernel in this regard seems to be a better approach than using polynomial or Gaussian kernels. It was also found that using support vector machines trained with a linear kernel seems to also produce more accurate results ...

Two-Layer Multiple Kernel Learning

Multiple Kernel Learning (MKL) aims to learn kernel machines for solving a real machine learning problem (e.g. classification) by exploring the combinations of multiple kernels. The traditional MKL approach is in general “shallow” in the sense that the target kernel is simply a linear (or convex) combination of some base kernels. In this paper, we investigate a framework of Multi-Layer Multiple...

Supervised and Localized Dimensionality Reduction from Multiple Feature Representations or Kernels

We propose a supervised and localized dimensionality reduction method that combines multiple feature representations or kernels. Each feature representation or kernel is used where it is suitable through a parametric gating model in a supervised manner for efficient dimensionality reduction and classification, and local projection matrices are learned for each feature representation or kernel. ...
