Book Nonlinear Dimensionality Reduction Techniques

Download or read book Nonlinear Dimensionality Reduction Techniques written by Sylvain Lespinats and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-12-02 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book proposes tools for analysis of multidimensional and metric data, by establishing a state-of-the-art of the existing solutions and developing new ones. It mainly focuses on visual exploration of these data by a human analyst, relying on a 2D or 3D scatter plot display obtained through Dimensionality Reduction. Performing diagnosis of an energy system requires identifying relations between observed monitoring variables and the associated internal state of the system. Dimensionality reduction, which allows to represent visually a multidimensional dataset, constitutes a promising tool to help domain experts to analyse these relations. This book reviews existing techniques for visual data exploration and dimensionality reduction such as tSNE and Isomap, and proposes new solutions to challenges in that field. In particular, it presents the new unsupervised technique ASKI and the supervised methods ClassNeRV and ClassJSE. Moreover, MING, a new approach for local map quality evaluation is also introduced. These methods are then applied to the representation of expert-designed fault indicators for smart-buildings, I-V curves for photovoltaic systems and acoustic signals for Li-ion batteries.

Book Open Problems in Spectral Dimensionality Reduction

Download or read book Open Problems in Spectral Dimensionality Reduction written by Harry Strange and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-01-07 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last few years have seen a great increase in the amount of data available to scientists, yet many of the techniques used to analyse this data cannot cope with such large datasets. Therefore, strategies need to be employed as a pre-processing step to reduce the number of objects or measurements whilst retaining important information. Spectral dimensionality reduction is one such tool for the data processing pipeline. Numerous algorithms and improvements have been proposed for the purpose of performing spectral dimensionality reduction, yet there is still no gold standard technique. This book provides a survey and reference aimed at advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students as well as researchers, scientists, and engineers in a wide range of disciplines. Dimensionality reduction has proven useful in a wide range of problem domains and so this book will be applicable to anyone with a solid grounding in statistics and computer science seeking to apply spectral dimensionality to their work.

Book Nonlinear Dimensionality Reduction

Download or read book Nonlinear Dimensionality Reduction written by Spencer Van Koevering and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Often when working with data, the number of dimensions in which the data is measured is greater than the number of dimensions needed to actually represent the data. This is more than just a curiosity, high dimensionality makes data analysis much harder. Hence, techniques to embed data into the minimal number of necessary dimensions have been developed. In this overview of dimensionality reduction we discuss a survey of modern techniques as well as some of their backgrounds and motivations. The primary techniques examined are Principal Component Analysis, Curvilinear Component Analysis and their derivatives. While Principal Component Analysis based techniques are quite popular, Curvilinear Component Analysis and its variants have not been widely implemented. In this paper we also present an implementation of Curvilinear Component Analysis and its primary variant, Curvilinear Distance Analysis, to compare their output to what the literature says as well as to compare them with Principal Component Analysis and its variants. The focus of this paper is on Curvilinear Component Analysis. Curvilinear Component Analysis and its variants are a very different approach to dimensionality reduction, which can give more robust embeddings, especially for objects with less Euclidean topologies than Principal Component Analysis. However, Curvilinear Component Analysis is also much more sensitive to user input. Finally we apply Curvilinear Distance Analysis to experimentally verify an embedding of face-space using Isomap which is the canonical choice for this problem.

Book Modern Multidimensional Scaling

Download or read book Modern Multidimensional Scaling written by Ingwer Borg and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-18 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multidimensional scaling (MDS) is a technique for the analysis of similarity or dissimilarity data on a set of objects. Such data may be intercorrelations of test items, ratings of similarity on political candidates, or trade indices for a set of countries. MDS attempts to model such data as distances among points in a geometric space. The main reason for doing this is that one wants a graphical display of the structure of the data, one that is much easier to understand than an array of numbers and, moreover, one that displays the essential information in the data, smoothing out noise. There are numerous varieties of MDS. Some facets for distinguishing among them are the particular type of geometry into which one wants to map the data, the mapping function, the algorithms used to find an optimal data representation, the treatment of statistical error in the models, or the possibility to represent not just one but several similarity matrices at the same time. Other facets relate to the different purposes for which MDS has been used, to various ways of looking at or "interpreting" an MDS representation, or to differences in the data required for the particular models. In this book, we give a fairly comprehensive presentation of MDS. For the reader with applied interests only, the first six chapters of Part I should be sufficient. They explain the basic notions of ordinary MDS, with an emphasis on how MDS can be helpful in answering substantive questions.

Book Nonlinear Dimensionality Reduction by Manifold Unfolding

Download or read book Nonlinear Dimensionality Reduction by Manifold Unfolding written by Pooyan Khajehpour Tadavani and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every second, an enormous volume of data is being gathered from various sources and stored in huge data banks. Most of the time, monitoring a data source requires several parallel measurements, which form a high-dimensional sample vector. Due to the curse of dimensionality, applying machine learning methods, that is, studying and analyzing high-dimensional data, could be difficult. The essential task of dimensionality reduction is to faithfully represent a given set of high-dimensional data samples with a few variables. The goal of this thesis is to develop and propose new techniques for handling high-dimensional data, in order to address contemporary demand in machine learning applications. Most prominent nonlinear dimensionality reduction methods do not explicitly provide a way to handle out-of-samples. The starting point of this thesis is a nonlinear technique, called Embedding by Affine Transformations (EAT), which reduces the dimensionality of out-of-sample data as well. In this method, a convex optimization is solved for estimating a transformation between the high-dimensional input space and the low-dimensional embedding space. To the best of our knowledge, EAT is the only distance-preserving method for nonlinear dimensionality reduction capable of handling out-of-samples. The second method that we propose is TesseraMap. This method is a scalable extension of EAT. Conceptually, TesseraMap partitions the underlying manifold of data into a set of tesserae and then unfolds it by constructing a tessellation in a low-dimensional subspace of the embedding space. Crucially, the desired tessellation is obtained through solving a small semidefinite program; therefore, this method can efficiently handle tens of thousands of data points in a short time. The final outcome of this thesis is a novel method in dimensionality reduction called Isometric Patch Alignment (IPA). Intuitively speaking, IPA first considers a number of overlapping flat patches, which cover the underlying manifold of the high-dimensional input data. Then, IPA rearranges the patches and stitches the neighbors together on their overlapping parts. We prove that stitching two neighboring patches aligns them together; thereby, IPA unfolds the underlying manifold of data. Although this method and TesseraMap have similar approaches, IPA is more scalable; it embeds one million data points in only a few minutes. More importantly, unlike EAT and TesseraMap, which unfold the underlying manifold by stretching it, IPA constructs the unfolded manifold through patch alignment. We show this novel approach is advantageous in many cases. In addition, compared to the other well-known dimensionality reduction methods, IPA has several important characteristics; for example, it is noise tolerant, it handles non-uniform samples, and it can embed non-convex manifolds properly. In addition to these three dimensionality reduction methods, we propose a method for subspace clustering called Low-dimensional Localized Clustering (LDLC). In subspace clustering, data is partitioned into clusters, such that the points of each cluster lie close to a low-dimensional subspace. The unique property of LDLC is that it produces localized clusters on the underlying manifold of data. By conducting several experiments, we show this property is an asset in many machine learning tasks. This method can also be used for local dimensionality reduction. Moreover, LDLC is a suitable tool for forming the tesserae in TesseraMap, and also for creating the patches in IPA.

Book Model Reduction for Circuit Simulation

Download or read book Model Reduction for Circuit Simulation written by Peter Benner and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-03-25 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Simulation based on mathematical models plays a major role in computer aided design of integrated circuits (ICs). Decreasing structure sizes, increasing packing densities and driving frequencies require the use of refined mathematical models, and to take into account secondary, parasitic effects. This leads to very high dimensional problems which nowadays require simulation times too large for the short time-to-market demands in industry. Modern Model Order Reduction (MOR) techniques present a way out of this dilemma in providing surrogate models which keep the main characteristics of the device while requiring a significantly lower simulation time than the full model. With Model Reduction for Circuit Simulation we survey the state of the art in the challenging research field of MOR for ICs, and also address its future research directions. Special emphasis is taken on aspects stemming from miniturisations to the nano scale. Contributions cover complexity reduction using e.g., balanced truncation, Krylov-techniques or POD approaches. For semiconductor applications a focus is on generalising current techniques to differential-algebraic equations, on including design parameters, on preserving stability, and on including nonlinearity by means of piecewise linearisations along solution trajectories (TPWL) and interpolation techniques for nonlinear parts. Furthermore the influence of interconnects and power grids on the physical properties of the device is considered, and also top-down system design approaches in which detailed block descriptions are combined with behavioral models. Further topics consider MOR and the combination of approaches from optimisation and statistics, and the inclusion of PDE models with emphasis on MOR for the resulting partial differential algebraic systems. The methods which currently are being developed have also relevance in other application areas such as mechanical multibody systems, and systems arising in chemistry and to biology. The current number of books in the area of MOR for ICs is very limited, so that this volume helps to fill a gap in providing the state of the art material, and to stimulate further research in this area of MOR. Model Reduction for Circuit Simulation also reflects and documents the vivid interaction between three active research projects in this area, namely the EU-Marie Curie Action ToK project O-MOORE-NICE (members in Belgium, The Netherlands and Germany), the EU-Marie Curie Action RTN-project COMSON (members in The Netherlands, Italy, Germany, and Romania), and the German federal project System reduction in nano-electronics (SyreNe).
