• Abstract: In this paper, we present a new method for few-sample supervised feature selection (FS). Our method first learns the manifold of the feature space of each class using kernels capturing multi-feature associations. Then, based on Riemannian geometry, a composite kernel is computed, extracting the differences between the learned feature associations. Finally, a FS score based on spectral analysis is proposed. Considering multi-feature associations makes our method multivariate by design. This in turn allows for the extraction of the hidden manifold underlying the features and avoids overfitting, facilitating few-sample FS. We showcase the efficacy of our method on illustrative examples and several benchmarks, where our method demonstrates higher accuracy in selecting the informative features compared to competing methods. In addition, we show that our FS leads to improved classification and better generalization when applied to test data.

  Exemplar-free class-incremental learning (CIL) poses several challenges since it prohibits the rehearsal of data from previous tasks. Recent approaches to incrementally learning the classifier by freezing the feature extractor after the first task have gained much attention. We explore prototypical networks for CIL, which generate new class prototypes using the frozen feature extractor and classify the features based on the Euclidean distance to the prototypes.

  This paper proposes a supervised feature selection method using density-based feature clustering (SFSDFC) SFSDFC decomposes the feature space into a set of disjoint feature clusters using a novel density-based clustering method. Then, an effective feature selection strategy is employed to obtain a subset of important features with minimal redundancy from those feature clusters.
