Dimensionality Reduction and Matrix Factorization Algorithms

Algorithms that describe high-dimensional data with a few well-chosen quantities. Principal component analysis finds the directions along which the data vary most, linear discriminant analysis finds directions that best separate known classes, t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding places similar items near each other on a two-dimensional map, and non-negative matrix factorization breaks a table of values into parts that can be added together.

Quote, Has Member: t-Distributed Stochastic Neighbor Embedding, Lead
t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding (t-SNE) is a statistical method for visualizing high-dimensional data by giving each datapoint a location in a two or three-dimensional map.

  • Has Member: Principal Component Analysis Algorithm, Section 2.5.1 PCA
    PCA is used to decompose a multivariate dataset in a set of successive orthogonal components that explain a maximum amount of the variance.
  • Has Member: Non-Negative Matrix Factorization Algorithm, Section 2.5.7 NMF
    NMF can be plugged in instead of PCA or its variants, in the cases where the data matrix does not contain negative values.

LinearDiscriminantAnalysis can be used to perform supervised dimensionality reduction, by projecting the input data to a linear subspace consisting of the directions which maximize the separation between classes (in a precise sense discussed in the mathematics section below).
