diffusionMap (version 1.2.0)

nystrom: Perform Nystrom Extension to estimate diffusion coordinates of data.

Description

Given the diffusion map coordinates of a training data set, estimates the diffusion map coordinates of a new set of data using the pairwise distance matrix from the new data to the original data.

Usage

nystrom(dmap, Dnew, sigma = dmap$epsilon)

Arguments

dmap

a '"dmap"' object from the original data set, computed by diffuse()

Dnew

distance matrix between each new data point and every point in the training data set. Matrix is m-by-n, where m is the number of data points in the new set and n is the number of training data points

sigma

scalar giving the size of the Nystrom extension kernel. Default uses the tuning parameter of the original diffusion map

Value

The estimated diffusion coordinates for the new data, a matrix of dimensions m by p, where p is the dimensionality of the input diffusion map

Details

Often, it is computationally infeasible to compute the exact diffusion map coordinates for large data sets. In this case, one may use the exact diffusion coordinates of a training data set to extend to a new data set using the Nystrom approximation.

A Gaussian kernel is used: exp(-D(x,y)^2/sigma). The default value of sigma is the epsilon value used in the construction of the original diffusion map. Other methods to select sigma, such as Algorithm 2 in Lafon, Keller, and Coifman (2006) have been proposed.

The dimensionality of the diffusion map representation of the new data set will be the same as the dimensionality of the diffusion map constructed on the original data.
