Learning in very high dimensions with very few samples
Acute leukemia dataset: 7129 # of gene vs. 72 samples
Colon cancer dataset: 2000 # of gene vs. 62 samples
Feature selection will be needed

feature for training examples of positive or negative class.
Filter Model –Weight Score Approach
is defined as the ratio between the difference of the means of expression levels and the sum of standard deviation in two classes.

jwj j Selecting genes with largest as our top features.
wj The weight score is calculated with the information about a single feature.
The highly linear correlated features might be selected by this approach.

Reduced Set: Plays the Most Important Role in RSVM
It is natural to raise two questions: Is there a way to choose the reduced set
other than random selection so that RSVM will have a better performance? Is there a mechanism to determine the
size of reduced set automatically or dynamically?

Reduced Set SelectionAccording to the Data Scatter in Input
Space
Expected these points to be representative sample
Choose reduced set randomly but only keep the points in the reduced set that are more than a
certain minimal distance apart

A Better WayAccording to the Data Scatter in Feature
Space
An example is given as following :
Training data analogous to XOR problem
Mapping to Feature Space
Map the input data via nonlinear mapping:
þ : (x1;x2) ! ((x1)2;(x2)2; 2p
x1x2)
K (x;z) =êx áz

= (x1z1 + x2z2)2
= (x21z

Equivalent to polynomial kernel with degree 2:
Mathematical ObservationsAnother Reason for IRSVM
is a linear combination of a set of kernel functions
If the kernel functions are very similar, thehypothesis space spanned by this kernel functions will be very limited.
In SVMs, the nonlinear separating surface is:
K (x0;A0)Du + b= 0
In RSVMs, the nonlinear separating surfaceP

Incremental Reduced SVMsThe strength of weak ties
Start with a very small reduced set , then add anew data point only when the kernel
vector is dissimilar to the current function set
This point contributes the most extra informationfor generating the separating surface
Repeat until several successive points cannot be added
The strength of weak ties (….)
The distance from the kernel vector to the column space of is greater than a threshold
The criterion for adding a point into reduced set is This distance can be determined by solving a
least squares problem
How to measure the dissimilar? Solving Least Squares

IRSVM Algorithm pseudo-code
(sequential version)
1 Randomly choose two data from the training data as the initial reduced set
2 Compute the reduced kernel matrix
3 For each data point not in the reduced set
4 Computes its kernel vector
5 Computes the distance from the kernel vector
6 to the column space of the current reduced kernel matrix
7 If its distance exceed a certain threshold
8 Add this point into the reduced set and form the new reduced kernel matrix
9 Until several successive failures happened in line 7
10 Solve the QP problem of nonlinear SVMs with the obtained reduced kernel
11 A new data point is classified by the separating surface
Wrapper Model – IRSVMFind a Linear Classifier:
I. Randomly choose a very small feature subset from the input features as the initial feature reduced set.
II. Select a feature vector not in the current feature reduced set and computing the distance between this vector and the space spanned by current feature reduced set.III. If the distance is larger than a given gap, then we add this feature vector to the feature reduced set.
IV. Repeat step II and step III until there are no feature can be added to the current feature reduced set.
V. Features in the resulting feature reduced set is our final result of feature selection.
