Abstract
This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 11341 "Learning in the context of very high dimensional data". The aim of the seminar was to bring together researchers who develop, investigate, or apply machine learning methods for very high dimensional data to advance this important field of research. The focus was be on broadly applicable methods and processing pipelines, which offer efficient solutions for high-dimensional data analysis appropriate for a wide range of application scenarios.

10302 Summary – Learning paradigms in dynamic environments

Authors: Barbara Hammer, Pascal Hitzler, Wolfgang Maass, and Marc Toussaint

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 10302, Learning paradigms in dynamic environments (2010)


Abstract
The seminar centered around problems which arise in the context of machine learning in dynamic environments. Particular emphasis was put on a couple of specific questions in this context: how to represent and abstract knowledge appropriately to shape the problem of learning in a partially unknown and complex environment and how to combine statistical inference and abstract symbolic representations; how to infer from few data and how to deal with non i.i.d. data, model revision and life-long learning; how to come up with efficient strategies to control realistic environments for which exploration is costly, the dimensionality is high and data are sparse; how to deal with very large settings; and how to apply these models in challenging application areas such as robotics, computer vision, or the web.

Some steps towards a general principle for dimensionality reduction mappings

Authors: Barbara Hammer, Kerstin Bunte, and Michael Biehl

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 10302, Learning paradigms in dynamic environments (2010)


Abstract
In the past years, many dimensionality reduction methods have been established which allow to visualize high dimensional data sets. Recently, also formal evaluation schemes have been proposed for data visualization, which allow a quantitative evaluation along general principles. Most techniques provide a mapping of a priorly given finite set of points only, requiring additional steps for out-of-sample extensions. We propose a general view on dimensionality reduction based on the concept of cost functions, and, based on this general principle, extend dimensionality reduction to explicit mappings of the data manifold. This offers the possibility of simple out-of-sample extensions. Further, it opens a way towards a theory of data visualization taking the perspective of its generalization ability to new data points. We demonstrate the approach based in a simple example.

08041 Summary – Recurrent Neural Networks - Models, Capacities, and Applications

Authors: Luc De Raedt, Barbara Hammer, Pascal Hitzler, and Wolfgang Maass

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 8041, Recurrent Neural Networks- Models, Capacities, and Applications (2008)


Abstract
The seminar centered around recurrent information processing in neural systems and its connections to brain sciences, on the one hand, and higher symbolic reasoning, on the other side. The goal was to explore connections across the disciplines and to tackle important questions which arise in all sub-disciplines such as representation of temporal information, generalization ability, inference, and learning.

A general framework for unsupervised preocessing of structured data

Authors: Barbara Hammer, Alessio Micheli, and Alessandro Sperduti

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 7161, Probabilistic, Logical and Relational Learning - A Further Synthesis (2008)


Abstract
We propose a general framework for unsupervised recurrent and recursive networks. This proposal covers various popular approaches like standard self organizing maps (SOM), temporal Kohonen maps, resursive SOM, and SOM for structured data. We define Hebbian learning within this general framework. We show how approaches based on an energy function, like neural gas, can be transferred to this abstract framework so that proposals for new learning algorithms emerge.

Learning Vector Quantization: generalization ability and dynamics of competing prototypes

Authors: Aree Witoelar, Michael Biehl, and Barbara Hammer

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 7131, Similarity-based Clustering and its Application to Medicine and Biology (2007)


Abstract
Learning Vector Quantization (LVQ) are popular multi-class classification algorithms. Prototypes in an LVQ system represent the typical features of classes in the data. Frequently multiple prototypes are employed for a class to improve the representation of variations within the class and the generalization ability. In this paper, we investigate the dynamics of LVQ in an exact mathematical way, aiming at understanding the influence of the number of prototypes and their assignment to classes. The theory of on-line learning allows a mathematical description of the learning dynamics in model situations. We demonstrate using a system of three prototypes the different behaviors of LVQ systems of multiple prototype and single prototype class representation.

Relational Clustering

Authors: Barbara Hammer and Alexander Hasenfuss

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 7131, Similarity-based Clustering and its Application to Medicine and Biology (2007)


Abstract
We introduce relational variants of neural gas, a very efficient and powerful neural clustering algorithm. It is assumed that a similarity or dissimilarity matrix is given which stems from Euclidean distance or dot product, respectively, however, the underlying embedding of points is unknown. In this case, one can equivalently formulate batch optimization in terms of the given similarities or dissimilarities, thus providing a way to transfer batch optimization to relational data. Interestingly, convergence is guaranteed even for general symmetric and nonsingular metrics.
