Ultrahigh dimensional multi-class linear discriminant analysis by pairwise sure independence screening

简介

<p>Abstract:</p> <div>This paper is concerned with the problem of feature screening for multi-class linear</div> <div>discriminant analysis under ultrahigh dimensional setting. We allow the number of</div> <div>classes to be relatively large. As a result, the total number of relevant features is</div> <div>larger than usual. This makes the related classification problem much more</div> <div>challenging than the conventional one, where the number of classes is small (very</div> <div>often two). To solve the problem, we propose a novel pairwise sure independence</div> <div>screening method for linear discriminant analysis with an ultrahigh dimensional</div> <div>predictor. The proposed procedure is directly applicable to the situation with many</div> <div>classes. We further prove that the proposed method is screening consistent.</div> <div>Simulation studies are conducted to assess the finite sample performance of the new</div> <div>procedure. We also demonstrate the proposed methodology via an empirical analysis</div> <div>of a real life example on handwritten Chinese character recognition.</div> <div>&nbsp;</div> <div>Keywords: Multi-class Linear Discriminant Analysis; Pairwise Sure Independence</div> <div>Screening; Sure Independence Screening; Strong Screening Consistency.</div>
