An Efficient Multiple Empirical Kernel Learning Algorithm with Data Distribution Estimation
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The Multiple Random Empirical Kernel Learning Machine (MREKLM) typically generates multiple empirical feature spaces by selecting a limited group of samples, which helps reduce training duration. However, MREKLM does not incorporate data distribution information during the projection process, leading to inconsistent performance and issues with reproducibility. To address this limitation, we introduce a within-class scatter matrix that leverages the distribution of samples, resulting in the development of the Fast Multiple Empirical Kernel Learning Incorporating Data Distribution Information (FMEKL-DDI). This approach enables the algorithm to incorporate sample distribution data during projection, improving the decision boundary and enhancing classification accuracy. To further minimize sample selection time, we employ a border point selection technique utilizing locality-sensitive hashing (BPLSH), which helps in efficiently picking samples for feature space development. The experimental results from various datasets demonstrate that FMEKL-DDI significantly improves classification accuracy while reducing training duration, thereby providing a more efficient approach with strong generalization performance.
