However, all of them use the Euclidean distance to construct the graph Laplacian, which does not necessarily reflect the inherent distribution of the data. In this brief, we propose a method to directly optimize the normalized graph Laplacian by using pairwise constraints. The learned graph is consistent with equivalence and nonequivalence pairwise relationships, and thus it can better represent similarity between samples. Meanwhile, our approach, unlike metric learning, automatically determines the scale factor during the optimization. The learned normalized Laplacian matrix can be directly applied in spectral clustering and semisupervised learning algorithms. Comprehensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach. © 2011 IEEE. | Source Title: | IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/39474 | ISSN: | 10459227 | DOI: | 10.1109/TNN.2011.2107919 |
