Sparse approximationSparse approximation (also known as sparse representation) theory deals with sparse solutions for systems of linear equations. Techniques for finding these solutions and exploiting them in applications have found wide use in , signal processing, machine learning, medical imaging, and more. Consider a linear system of equations , where is an underdetermined matrix and . The matrix (typically assumed to be full-rank) is referred to as the dictionary, and is a signal of interest.
Kernel principal component analysisIn the field of multivariate statistics, kernel principal component analysis (kernel PCA) is an extension of principal component analysis (PCA) using techniques of kernel methods. Using a kernel, the originally linear operations of PCA are performed in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space. Recall that conventional PCA operates on zero-centered data; that is, where is one of the multivariate observations.
Inégalité de HoeffdingEn théorie des probabilités, l’inégalité de Hoeffding est une inégalité de concentration concernant les sommes de variables aléatoires indépendantes et bornées. Elle tire son nom du mathématicien et statisticien finlandais Wassily Hoeffding. Il existe une version plus générale de cette inégalité, concernant une somme d'accroissements de martingales, accroissements là encore bornés : cette version plus générale est parfois connue sous le nom d'inégalité d'Azuma-Hoeffding.
Tensor rank decompositionIn multilinear algebra, the tensor rank decomposition or the decomposition of a tensor is the decomposition of a tensor in terms of a sum of minimum tensors. This is an open problem. Canonical polyadic decomposition (CPD) is a variant of the rank decomposition which computes the best fitting terms for a user specified . The CP decomposition has found some applications in linguistics and chemometrics. The CP rank was introduced by Frank Lauren Hitchcock in 1927 and later rediscovered several times, notably in psychometrics.
Non-negative matrix factorizationNon-negative matrix factorization (NMF or NNMF), also non-negative matrix approximation is a group of algorithms in multivariate analysis and linear algebra where a matrix V is factorized into (usually) two matrices W and H, with the property that all three matrices have no negative elements. This non-negativity makes the resulting matrices easier to inspect. Also, in applications such as processing of audio spectrograms or muscular activity, non-negativity is inherent to the data being considered.
Vecteur de KillingEn mathématiques, un vecteur de Killing, ou champ de Killing, est un champ vectoriel sur une variété (pseudo-)riemannienne qui conserve la métrique de cette variété et met en évidence les symétries continues de celle-ci. Intuitivement un vecteur de Killing peut être vu comme un « champ de déplacement » , c'est-à-dire associant à un point M de la variété le point M' défini par le déplacement de M le long de la courbe passant par M dont est le vecteur tangent.
