Abstract

This paper presents a novel marginal Fisher regression classification (MFRC) method by incorporating the ideas of marginal Fisher analysis (MFA) and linear regression classification (LRC). The MFRC aims at minimizing the within-class compactness over the between-class separability to find an optimal embedding matrix for the LRC so that the LRC on that subspace achieves a high discrimination for classification. Specifically, the within-class compactness is measured with the sum of distances between each sample and its neighbors within the same class with the LRC, and the between-class separability is characterized as the sum of distances between margin points and their neighboring points from different classes with the LRC. Therefore, the MFRC embodies the ideas of the LRC, Fisher analysis and manifold learning. Experiments on the FERET, PIE and AR datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of the MFRC.
