• Abstract summary: This research proposes a novel approach called the Modified Isolation Kernel (MIK) as an alternative to the Gaussian kernel. MIK uses adaptive density estimation to capture local structures more accurately and integrates robustness measures. It exhibits improved preservation of the local and global structure and enables better visualization of clusters and subclusters in the embedded space.

• Abstract: The t-Distributed Stochastic Neighbor Embedding (t-SNE) has emerged as a popular dimensionality reduction technique for visualizing high-dimensional data. It computes pairwise similarities between data points by default using an RBF kernel and random initialization (in low-dimensional space), which successfully captures the overall structure but may struggle to preserve the local structure efficiently. This research proposes a novel approach called the Modified Isolation Kernel (MIK) as an alternative to the Gaussian kernel, which is built upon the concept of the Isolation Kernel. MIK uses adaptive density estimation to capture local structures more accurately and integrates robustness measures. It also assigns higher similarity values to nearby points and lower values to distant points. Comparative research using the normal Gaussian kernel, the isolation kernel, and several initialization techniques, including random, PCA, and random walk initializations, are used to assess the proposed approach (MIK). Additionally, we compare the computational efficiency of all $3$ kernels with $3$ different initialization methods. Our experimental results demonstrate several advantages of the proposed kernel (MIK) and initialization method selection. It exhibits improved preservation of the local and global structure and enables better visualization of clusters and subclusters in the embedded space. These findings contribute to advancing dimensionality reduction techniques and provide researchers and practitioners with an effective tool for data exploration, visualization, and analysis in various domains.

  In cross-domain few-shot classification, NCC aims to learn representations to construct a metric space where few-shot classification can be performed. In this paper, we find that there exist high similarities between NCC-learned representations of two samples from different classes. We propose a bi-level optimization framework, emphmaximizing optimized kernel dependence (MOKD) to learn a set of class-specific representations that match the cluster structures indicated by labeled data.

  Self-supervised learning (SSL) produces useful representations of data without access to any labels for classifying the data. We extend this framework to incorporate algorithms based on kernel methods where embeddings are constructed by linear maps acting on the feature space of a kernel. We analyze our kernel model on small datasets to identify common features of self-supervised learning algorithms and gain theoretical insights into their performance on downstream tasks.

  Post-earthquake regional damage assessment of buildings is an expensive task. The information theoretic measure of mutual information is one of the most effective criteria to evaluate the effectiveness of the samples. A local kernels strategy was proposed to reduce the computational costs, but the adaptability of the kernels to the observed labels was not considered. In this article, an adaptive local kernels methodology is developed that allows for the conformability of the kernels to the observed output data.
