A probabilistic view on Riemannian machine learning models for SPD matrices
Not on the map. Why?
Abstract (arXiv)
The goal of this paper is to show how different machine learning tools on the Riemannian manifold Pd of Symmetric Positive Definite (SPD) matrices can be united under a probabilistic framework. For this, we will need several Gaussian distributions defined on Pd. We will show how popular classifiers on Pd can be reinterpreted as Bayes Classifiers using these Gaussian distributions. These distributions will also be used for outlier detection and dimension reduction. By showing that those distributions are pervasive in the tools used on Pd, we allow for other machine learning tools to be extended to Pd.
