do.lqmi: Linear Quadratic Mutual Information

Description

Linear Quadratic Mutual Information (LQMI) is a supervised linear dimension reduction method. Quadratic Mutual Information is an efficient nonparametric estimation method for Mutual Information for class labels not requiring class priors. For the KQMI formulation, LQMI is a linear equivalent.

Usage

do.lqmi(X, label, ndim = 2, preprocess = c("center", "scale", "cscale",
  "whiten", "decorrelate"))

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.

ndim

an integer-valued target dimension.

preprocess

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

Value

a named list containing

Y

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

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 3 different groups of data X and label vector
x1 = matrix(rnorm(4*10), nrow=10)-20
x2 = matrix(rnorm(4*10), nrow=10)
x3 = matrix(rnorm(4*10), nrow=10)+20
X  = rbind(x1, x2, x3)
label = c(rep(1,10), rep(2,10), rep(3,10))

## compare against LDA
out1 = do.lda(X, label)
out2 = do.lqmi(X, label)

## visualize
par(mfrow=c(1,2))
plot(out1$Y[,1], out1$Y[,2], main="LDA projection")
plot(out2$Y[,1], out2$Y[,2], main="LQMI projection")
