[Q]: Feature subset selection, as a special case of the general subset selection problem, has been the topic of a considerable number of studies due to the growing importance of data-mining applications. In the feature subset selection problem there are two main issues that need to be addressed: (i) Finding an appropriate measure function than can be fairly fast and robustly computed for high-dimensional data. (ii) A search strategy to optimize the measure over the subset space in a reasonable amount of time. In this article mutual information between features and class labels is considered to be the measure function. Two series expansions for mutual information are proposed, and it is shown that most heuristic criteria suggested in the literature are truncated approximations of these expansions. It is well-known that searching the whole subset space is an NP-hard problem. Here, instead of the conventional sequential search algorithms, we suggest a parallel search strategy based on semidefinite programming (SDP) that can search through the subset space in polynomial time. By exploiting the similarities between the proposed algorithm and an instance of the maximumcut problem in graph theory, the approximation ratio of this algorithm is derived and is compared with the approximation ratio of the backward elimination method. The experiments show that it can be misleading to judge the quality of a measure solely based on the classification accuracy, without taking the effect of the non-optimum search strategy into account.

[Q]: We propose a localized approach to multiple kernel learning that can be formulated as a convex optimization problem over a given cluster structure. For which we obtain generalization error guarantees and derive an optimization algorithm based on the Fenchel dual representation. Experiments on real-world datasets from the application domains of computational biology and computer vision show that convex localized multiple kernel learning can achieve higher prediction accuracies than its global and non-convex local counterparts.

[Q]: A famous biologically inspired hierarchical model firstly proposed by Riesenhuber and Poggio has been successfully applied to multiple visual recognition tasks. The model is able to achieve a set of positionand scale-tolerant recognition, which is a central problem in pattern recognition. In this paper, based on some other biological experimental results, we introduce the Memory and Association Mechanisms into the above biologically inspired model. The main motivations of the work are (a) to mimic the active memory and association mechanism and add the ’top down’ adjustment to the above biologically inspired hierarchical model and (b) to build up an algorithm which can save the space and keep a good recognition performance. More details of the work could be explained as follows: (1) In objects memorizing process: Our proposed model mimics some characteristics of human’s memory mechanism as follows: (a) In our model, one object is memorized by semantic attributes and special image patches (corresponding to episodic memory). The semantic attributes describe each part of the object with clear physical meaning, for example, if eyes and mouths of faces are ’big’ or ’small’ and so on. One special patch is selected if the value of the corresponding semantic feature is far from average one. The patch should be the most prominent part of the object. (b) In our model, different features (semantic attributes and special patches) of one object are stored in distributed places and the common feature of different objects is saved aggregately, which can learn to classify the difference of similar features of different objects. The similarity thresholds to each object can be learnt when new objects are learnt. (2) In object recognition process: In biological process, the associated recognition including familiarity discrimination and recollective matching. In our proposed model, firstly mimicking familiarity discrimination (’knowing’ though the episode), we compare the special patches of candidates with that of saved objects using above mentioned biologically inspired hierarchical model, where the candidates and saved objects have the same prominent semantic features. Then mimicking recollective matching, the comparison results of special patches are combined with semantic feature comparison. The new model is also applied to object recognition processes. The primary experimental results show that our method is efficient with much less memory requirement.
