摘要
It is common to project signals from a high-dimensional space to a low-dimension space for ease of signal analysis and manipulation. This is known as the subspace method. One example is the principal component analysis (PCA). Being motivated by research on interpretable deep learning, we propose a new data-driven machine learning paradigm based on the subspace concept and call it the successive subspace learning (SSL) methodology. In contrast with the traditional subspace method, the SSL has several novel ingredients. First, each basic unit in the SSL contains subspace dimension expansion and reduction two modules. Second, the SSL system has multiple basic units in cascade. Third, an efficient multi-class classifier based on the subspace concept, called the subspace classifier, is adopted in the SSL system. We will use two examples to demonstrate the SSL methodology; namely, the PixelHop and the PointHop methods. They are developed, respectively, for image object classification and 3D point cloud classification. Experimental results will be provided to demonstrate the advantages of the SSL approach.
