Abstract

An approach that unifies subspace feature selection and optimal classification is presented. Independent component analysis (ICA) and principal component analysis (PCA) provide a maximally variant or statistically independent basis for pattern recognition. A support vector classifier (SVC) provides information about the significance of each feature vector. The feature vectors and the principal and independent component bases are modified to obtain classification results which provide lower classification error and better generalization than can be obtained by the SVC on the raw data and its PCA or ICA subspace representation. The performance of the approach is demonstrated with artificial data sets and an example of face recognition from an image database.
