do.lsdf: Locality Sensitive Discriminant Feature

Description

Locality Sensitive Discriminant Feature (LSDF) is a semi-supervised feature selection method. It utilizes both labeled and unlabeled data points in that labeled points are used to maximize the margin between data opints from different classes, while labeled ones are used to discover the geometrical structure of the data space.

Usage

do.lsdf(
  X,
  label,
  ndim = 2,
  type = c("proportion", 0.1),
  preprocess = c("null", "center", "scale", "cscale", "whiten", "decorrelate"),
  gamma = 100
)

Arguments

X

an \((n\times p)\) matrix or data frame whose rows are observations and columns represent independent variables.

label

a length-\(n\) vector of data class labels. It should contain NA elements for missing label.

ndim

an integer-valued target dimension.

type

a vector of neighborhood graph construction. Following types are supported; c("knn",k), c("enn",radius), and c("proportion",ratio). Default is c("proportion",0.1), connecting about 1/10 of nearest data points among all data points. See also aux.graphnbd for more details.

preprocess

an additional option for preprocessing the data. Default is "null". See also aux.preprocess for more details.

gamma

within-class weight parameter for same-class data.

Value

a named list containing

Y

an \((n\times ndim)\) matrix whose rows are embedded observations.

featidx

a length-\(ndim\) vector of indices with highest scores.

trfinfo

a list containing information for out-of-sample prediction.

projection

a \((p\times ndim)\) whose columns are basis for projection.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
## generate data of 3 types with clear difference
set.seed(100)
dt1  = aux.gensamples(n=20)-50
dt2  = aux.gensamples(n=20)
dt3  = aux.gensamples(n=20)+50

## merge the data and create a label correspondingly
X      = rbind(dt1,dt2,dt3)
label  = rep(1:3, each=20)

## copy a label and let 20% of elements be missing
nlabel = length(label)
nmissing = round(nlabel*0.20)
label_missing = label
label_missing[sample(1:nlabel, nmissing)]=NA

## try different neighborhood sizes
out1 = do.lsdf(X, label_missing, type=c("proportion",0.10))
out2 = do.lsdf(X, label_missing, type=c("proportion",0.25))
out3 = do.lsdf(X, label_missing, type=c("proportion",0.50))

## visualize
opar <- par(no.readonly=TRUE)
par(mfrow=c(1,3))
plot(out1$Y, pch=19, col=label, main="10% connectivity")
plot(out2$Y, pch=19, col=label, main="25% connectivity")
plot(out3$Y, pch=19, col=label, main="50% connectivity")
par(opar)
