Abstract

While LDA is a supervised dimension reduction method which finds projective directions to maximize separability between classes, the performance of LDA is severely degraded when the number of labeled data is small. Recently semi-supervised dimension reduction methods have been proposed which utilize abundant unlabeled data and overcome the shortage of labeled data. However, matrix computation usually used in statistical dimension reduction methods becomes hindrance to make the utilization of a large number of unlabeled data difficult, and moreover too much information from unlabeled data may not so helpful compared to the increase of its processing time. In order to solve these problems, we propose an ensemble approach for semi-supervised dimension reduction, Extensive experimental results in text classification demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed method.
