Abstract: In apparatus for magnetic resonance imaging equipped for parallel imaging, in
the sense that an array of receive coils can be used to regenerate data at phase-encode
gradients interposed between those at which measurements were taken, the full set of data is
collected, which is then split into two sets with a greater separation of phase-encode gradients
(Figures 13 and 14). These sets are then each regenerated (Figures 15 and 16), enabling
spurious data to be excised from the original data set by comparison of the two
representations.

Les points de données sont disposés sous la forme d'une matrice dite matrice de noyaux, ou matrice de Gram, renfermant tous les noyaux par paires entre les points de données. L'ensemble de données est considéré comme les noeuds d'un  graphique entièrement connecté. Une pondération égale au noyau entre les deux noeuds est attribuée à chaque bord du graphique. La matrice d'adjacence du graphique est équivalente à la matrice de noyaux, ou matrice  Gram. Les vecteurs propres et leurs vecteurs propres correspondants renseignent sur les propriétés du graphiques et donc de l'ensemble de données. On peut attribuer une valeur de seuil au second vecteur propre pour parvenir à une attribution de classe approximative des noeuds du graphique. Des vecteurs propres de la matrice de noyaux peuvent être utilisés pour attribuer des données non marquées à des amas, mélanger des informations tirées de données marquées et de données non marquées par transduction, tirer des informations de sélection modèle d'autres noyaux, détecter des nouveautés ou des anomalies et/ou nettoyer des données, et exécuter des tâches d'apprentissage sous supervision telles que des classifications.
