An Improvement to Matrix-Based LDA
نویسندگان
چکیده
The matrix-based LDA method is attracting increasing attention. Compared with classic LDA, this method can overcome the small sample size (SSS) problem. However, previous literatures neglect the fact that there are two available matrix-based LDA algorithms and usually use only one of the two algorithms to perform the experiment. By experimental analysis, this work point out the combination of the two available matrix-based LDA algorithms can obtain a better performance.

Improving Chernoff criterion for classification by using the filled function
Linear discriminant analysis is a well-known matrix-based dimensionality reduction method. It is a supervised feature extraction method used in two-class classification problems. However, it is incapable of dealing with data in which classes have unequal covariance matrices. Taking this issue, the Chernoff distance is an appropriate criterion to measure distances between distributions. In the p...
متن کاملAn empirical comparison of different LDA methods in fMRI-based brain states decoding.
Decoding brain states from response patterns with multivariate pattern recognition techniques is a popular method for detecting multivoxel patterns of brain activation. These patterns are informative with respect to a subject's perceptual or cognitive states. Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) cannot be directly applied to fMRI data analysis because of the "few samples and large features" natur...
متن کاملApproximate LDA Technique for Dimensionality Reduction in the Small Sample Size Case
The regularized linear discriminant analysis (LDA) technique overcomes the small sample size (SSS) problem by adding a regularization parameter to the eigenvalues of within-class scatter matrix. However, it has some drawbacks. In this paper we address its drawbacks and propose an improvement. The proposed technique is experimented on several datasets and promising results have been obtained.
متن کاملImproving short utterance based i-vector speaker recognition using source and utterance-duration normalization techniques
A significant amount of speech is typically required for speaker verification system development and evaluation, especially in the presence of large intersession variability. This paper introduces a source and utterance-duration normalized linear discriminant analysis (SUN-LDA) approaches to compensate session variability in short-utterance i-vector speaker verification systems. Two variations ...
متن کاملMaximum conditional mutual information projection for speech recognition
Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) in its original modelfree formulation is best suited to classification problems with equal-covariance classes. Heteroscedastic discriminant analysis (HDA) removes this equal covariance constraint, and therefore is more suitable for automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems. However, maximizing HDA objective function does not correspond directly to minimizing ...
