KERNEL LEARNING APPARATUS USING TRANSFORMED CONVEX OPTIMIZATION PROBLEM

摘要

In a kernel learning apparatus, a data preprocessing circuitry preprocesses and represents each data example as a collection of feature representations that need to be interpreted. An explicit feature mapping circuit designs a kernel function with an explicit feature map to embed the feature representations of data into a nonlinear feature space and to produce the explicit feature map for the designed kernel function to train a predictive model. A convex problem formulating circuitry formulates a non-convex problem for training the predictive model into a convex optimization problem based on the explicit feature map. An optimal solution solving circuitry solves the convex optimization problem to obtain a globally optimal solution for training an interpretable predictive model.
