Semidefinite Embedding - Comparison To Other Methods

Comparison To Other Methods

Semidefinite embedding is much better in revealing the underlying dimension of the data compared to LLE and Laplacian eigenmaps. It also guarantees that the nearest neighbors in the embedding is the same as the original nearest neighbor for each point while the other two methods do not. On the other hand, semidefinite embedding is much slower and harder to scale to large data.

Semidefinite embedding outperforms Isomap when the manifold is not a convex subset of the Euclidean space.

Famous quotes containing the words comparison to, comparison and/or methods:

    In comparison to the French Revolution, the American Revolution has come to seem a parochial and rather dull event. This, despite the fact that the American Revolution was successful—realizing the purposes of the revolutionaries and establishing a durable political regime—while the French Revolution was a resounding failure, devouring its own children and leading to an imperial despotism, followed by an eventual restoration of the monarchy.
    Irving Kristol (b. 1920)

    But the best read naturalist who lends an entire and devout attention to truth, will see that there remains much to learn of his relation to the world, and that it is not to be learned by any addition or subtraction or other comparison of known quantities, but is arrived at by untaught sallies of the spirit, by a continual self-recovery, and by entire humility.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    There are souls that are incurable and lost to the rest of society. Deprive them of one means of folly, they will invent ten thousand others. They will create subtler, wilder methods, methods that are absolutely DESPERATE. Nature herself is fundamentally antisocial, it is only by a usurpation of powers that the organized body of society opposes the natural inclination of humanity.
    Antonin Artaud (1896–1948)
