GdmFull: Global Distance Metric Learning

In dml: Distance Metric Learning in R

Description

Performs Global Distance Metric Learning (GDM) on the given data, learning a full matrix.

Usage

GdmFull(data, simi, dism, maxiter = 100)

Arguments

data	n * d data matrix. n is the number of data points, d is the dimension of the data. Each data point is a row in the matrix.
simi	n * 2 matrix describing the similar constrains. Each row of matrix is serial number of a similar pair in the original data. For example, pair(1, 3) represents the first observation is similar the 3th observation in the original data.
dism	n * 2 matrix describing the dissimilar constrains as simi. Each row of matrix is serial number of a dissimilar pair in the original data.
maxiter	numeric, the number of iteration.

Details

Put GdmFull function details here.

Value

list of the GdmDiag results:

newData	GdmDiag transformed data
fullA	suggested Mahalanobis matrix
dmlA	matrix to transform data, square root of diagonalA
converged	whether the iteration-projection optimization is converged or not

For every two original data points (x1, x2) in newData (y1, y2):

(x2 - x1)' * A * (x2 - x1) = || (x2 - x1) * B ||^2 = || y2 - y1 ||^2

Note

Be sure to check whether the dimension of original data and constrains' format are valid for the function.
