Principal Component Analysis in Space Forms

1 code implementation6 Jan 2023 Puoya Tabaghi, Michael Khanzadeh, Yusu Wang, Sivash Mirarab

Finding a low-dimensional Riemannian affine subspace for a set of points in a space form amounts to dimensionality reduction because, as we show, any such affine subspace is isometric to a space form of the same dimension and curvature.

Learning metrics for persistence-based summaries and applications for graph classification

1 code implementation NeurIPS 2019 Qi Zhao, Yusu Wang

However often in practice, the choice of the weight function should depend on the nature of the specific type of data one considers, and it is thus highly desirable to learn a best weight function (and thus metric for persistence diagrams) from labelled data.
