Conditional Manifold Learning

Description

Finds a low-dimensional embedding of high-dimensional data, conditioning on available manifold information. The current version supports conditional MDS (based on either conditional SMACOF or closed-form solution) and conditional ISOMAP.

Details

Brief descriptions of the main functions of the package are provided below:

condMDS(): is the conditional MDS method, which uses conditional SMACOF to optimize its conditional stress objective function.

condMDSeigen(): is the conditional MDS method, which uses a closed-form solution based on multiple linear regression and eigendecomposition.

condIsomap(): is the conditional ISOMAP method, which is basically conditional MDS applying to graph distances (i.e., estimated geodesic distances) of the given distances/dissimilarities.

Conditional ISOMAP

Description

Finds a low-dimensional manifold embedding of a given distance/dissimilarity matrix, conditioning on available manifold information. The method applies conditional MDS (see condMDS) to a graph distance matrix computed for the given distances/dissimilarities, using the isomap{vegan} function.

Usage

condIsomap(d, V, u.dim, epsilon = NULL, k, W,
           method = c('matrix', 'vector'), exact = TRUE,
           it.max = 1000, gamma = 1e-05,
           init = c('none', 'eigen', 'user'),
           U.start, B.start, ...)

Arguments

d

V

an Nxq matrix of q manifold auxiliary parameter values of the N entities.

u.dim

epsilon

k

Number of shortest dissimilarities retained for a point. If both epsilon and k are given, epsilon will be used.

W

an NxN symmetric weight matrix. If not given, a matrix of ones will be used.

method

if matrix, there are no restrictions for the B matrix . If vector, the B matrix is restricted to be diagonal. The latter is more efficient for large q.

exact

only relevant if W is not given. In this case, if exact == FALSE, U is updated by the large-N approximation formula.

it.max

the max number of conditional SMACOF iterations.

gamma

conditional SMACOF stops early if the reduction of normalized conditional stress is less than gamma

init

initialization method.

U.start

user-defined starting values for the embedding (when init = 'user')

B.start

starting B matrix.

...

other arguments for the isomap{vegan} function.

Value

the conditional stress value at each iteration.

init

the value of the init argument.

U.start

the starting values for the embedding.
