Nonlinear principal component analysis

Der, Ralf, Steinmetz, Ulrich, Balzuweit, Gerd, Schüürmann, Gerrit 15 July 2019 (has links)
We study the extraction of nonlinear data models in high-dimensional spaces with modified self-organizing maps. We present a general algorithm which maps low-dimensional lattices into high-dimensional data manifolds without violation of topology. The approach is based on a new principle exploiting the specific dynamical properties of the first order phase transition induced by the noise of the data. Moreover we present a second algorithm for the extraction of generalized principal curves comprising disconnected and branching manifolds. The performance of the algorithm is demonstrated for both one- and two-dimensional principal manifolds and also for the case of sparse data sets. As an application we reveal cluster structures in a set of real world data from the domain of ecotoxicology.
