Valeur propre, vecteur propre et espace propreEn mathématiques, et plus particulièrement en algèbre linéaire, le concept de vecteur propre est une notion algébrique s'appliquant à une application linéaire d'un espace dans lui-même. Il correspond à l'étude des axes privilégiés, selon lesquels l'application se comporte comme une dilatation, multipliant les vecteurs par une même constante. Ce rapport de dilatation est appelé valeur propre, les vecteurs auxquels il s'applique s'appellent vecteurs propres, réunis en un espace propre.
Nonlinear dimensionality reductionNonlinear dimensionality reduction, also known as manifold learning, refers to various related techniques that aim to project high-dimensional data onto lower-dimensional latent manifolds, with the goal of either visualizing the data in the low-dimensional space, or learning the mapping (either from the high-dimensional space to the low-dimensional embedding or vice versa) itself. The techniques described below can be understood as generalizations of linear decomposition methods used for dimensionality reduction, such as singular value decomposition and principal component analysis.
Frobenius inner productIn mathematics, the Frobenius inner product is a binary operation that takes two matrices and returns a scalar. It is often denoted . The operation is a component-wise inner product of two matrices as though they are vectors, and satisfies the axioms for an inner product. The two matrices must have the same dimension - same number of rows and columns, but are not restricted to be square matrices. Given two complex number-valued n×m matrices A and B, written explicitly as the Frobenius inner product is defined as, where the overline denotes the complex conjugate, and denotes Hermitian conjugate.
PeriodogramIn signal processing, a periodogram is an estimate of the spectral density of a signal. The term was coined by Arthur Schuster in 1898. Today, the periodogram is a component of more sophisticated methods (see spectral estimation). It is the most common tool for examining the amplitude vs frequency characteristics of FIR filters and window functions. FFT spectrum analyzers are also implemented as a time-sequence of periodograms. There are at least two different definitions in use today.
