Alignment Hypothesis about manifolds agreement Discussion References Hyper-volume of a thin spherical shell The relative hyper-volume of a thin spherical shell is Vsphere (r ) − Vsphere (r (1 − ε)) 1D − (1 − ε)D = Vsphere (r ) 1D where ε is the thickness of the shell (ε 1). When D increase, the ratio tends to 1, meaning that the shell contains almost all the volume. Phong. Vo Dinh Review on Manifold learning

15. Motivation Background Curse of Dimensionality Taxonomy Do we need feature invariance? Alignment Hypothesis about manifolds agreement Discussion References Feature invariance Or Distance invariance? A possible approach to introduce invariance into pattern recognition algorithm is to use transformation invariant features. Crucial information may be discarded Dicult to evaluate the impact of feature extraction on the classication error Alignment and classication can be seen as two sides of the same coin. The appropriate distance for classication is that which maximizes alignment. A lot of eorts have concentrated on seeking for invariance by the computation of appropriate distance measures in the pattern space. Phong. Vo Dinh Review on Manifold learning

30. Motivation Background Taxonomy Alignment Discussion References Topology and spaces Topology studies the properties of objects that are preserved through deformations, twistings, and stretchings. The knowledge of object does not depend on how they are presented, or embedded, in space. Used to abstract the intrinsic connectivity of objects while ignoring their detailed form. A and B are called homeomorphic (topological isomorphism) if there is exist a topological structure-preserving map between them. Example A circle is topologically equivalent to an ellipse, and a glass is equivalent to a torus! Phong. Vo Dinh Review on Manifold learning

44. Example: Unfolding the Swiss roll Figure: The problem of nonlinear dimensionality reduction for three-dimensional data (B) sampled from a two-dimensional manifold (A). An unsupervised learning algorithm must discover the global internal coordinates of the manifold without signals that explicitly indicate how the data should be embedded in two dimensions. The color coding illustrates the neighborhood- preserving mapping discovered by LLE [7]; black outlines in (B) and (C) show the neighborhood of a single point.

Here we present the results of PCA (left) and LLE (right), applied to images of a single face translated across a two-dimensional background of noise. Note how LLE maps the images with corner faces to the corners of its two dimensional embedding, while PCA fails to preserve the neighborhood structure of nearby images. Courtesy of [5]

48. Motivation Background Taxonomy Distance preservation Alignment Topology preservation Discussion References Introduction In the linear case, maximization/minimization reconstruction error, combined with a basic linear model, lead to robust methods (i.e PCA). In the nonlinear case, more complex data models are required. The motivation behind distance preservation? Any manifold can be fully described by pairwise distances. The goal: A low-dimensional representation can be built in such a way that the initial distances are reproduced.

57. Example: graph distance in Isomap Figure: (A) For two arbitrary points (circled) on a nonlinear manifold, their Euclidean distance in the high- dimensional input space (length of dashed line) may not accurately reect their intrinsic similarity, as measured by geodesic distance along the low-dimensional manifold (length of solid curve). (B) The neighborhood graph G constructed in step one of Isomap allows an approximation (red segments) to the true geodesic path to be computed eciently in step two, as the shortest path in G.(C) The two-dimensional embedding recovered by Isomap in step three, which best preserves the shortest path distances in the neighborhood graph (overlaid). Straight lines in the embedding (blue) now represent simpler and cleaner approximations to the true geodesic paths than do the corresponding graph paths (red).
