On the Initialisation of Sammon’s Nonlinear Mapping

Abstract: Abstract:The initialisation of a neural network implementation of Sammon's mapping, either randomly or based on the principal components (PCs) of the sample covariance matrix, is experimentally investigated. When PCs are employed, fewer experiments are needed and the network configuration can be set precisely without trial-and-error experimentation. Tested on five real-world databases, it is shown that very few PCs are required to achieve a shorter training period, lower mapping error and higher classification… Show more

“…Some authors (Mao and Jain 1995;Lerner et al 2000) suggest using the scores of the first two components of an ordination method, such as the principal component analysis. In this study, however, Sammon's mapping did not arrive at a higher squared correlation coefficient of the distance matrices of 0.58, which was achieved by using the scores of the first two components.…”

“…The 3D plots could be moved around and rotated to give a better sense of the landscape of the data points, since MATLAB (R2016b, MATLAB, Natick, MA, USA) was used for all the work done in this exercise. The Sammon's nonlinear mapping [15], which is a popular nonmetric MDS, was employed for the multi-dimensional scaling as a way to preserve, as much as possible, the inherent structure of the data when the patterns are projected from a higher-dimensional space to a lower-dimensional space by maintaining the distances between the patterns under projection [28]. The simplest technique for dimensionality reduction is a straightforward linear projection, such as the principal components of the data, which maximizes the variance present in the transformed dataset, albeit without the preservation of the geometrical structure of the data that is not detectable by the human senses.…”

“…It is difficult for us to use these methods to discover nonlinear structure in the fault data, resulting, from the point of view of fault classification, in low accuracy fault identification or misjudgment. Among traditional nonlinear mapping methods, Sammon mapping [ 6 ] and the neuroscale method [ 7 ] are used. The former uses an iterative process that results in intensive computation, while the latter uses a radial basis function network and has similar shortcomings as neural networks.…”
