| Abstract: |
Principle Component Analysis (PCA) and Principle Coordinates Analysis
(PCO) are two widely used tools in statistics and data mining
for high dimensional data points living approximately on an affine
subspace. Finding the affine subspace is the so-called linear
manifold learning. Recent interest has been drawn to nonlinear
manifold learning which assumes that the high dimensional data
points live approximately on a curved lower dimensional manifold
and tries to find the lower dimensional manifold. In this talk,
we shall review briefly three commonly used nonlinear manifold
learning algorithms:
Isometric feature mapping (ISOMAP), Locally Linear Embedding
(LLE), and Local tangent space alignment (LTSA). We then present
our work on the analysis of LTSA.

| Abstract: |
Both analytic and geometric optimal monotonicities for Lp integrals
of Green's functions of simply-connected planar domains with
rectifiable simple curves as boundaries are obtained via a sharp
Riemann-Stieltjes's integration and Huber's analytic and geometric
isoperimetric inequalities under finiteness of the positive part
of total Gauss curvature of a conformal metric. Consequently,
new analytic and geometric isoperimetric-type inequalities are
discovered. Moreover, when extending the geometric monotonicity
to two-dimensional Riemannian manifolds, we surprisingly find
that the {0,1}-form of the extended monotonicity is between Moser-Trudinger's
inequality and Nash-Sobolev's inequality on complete noncompact
boundary-free surfaces, especially equivalent to Nash-Sobolev's/Faber-Krahn's
eigenvalue/Heat-kernel-upper-bound
/Log-Sobolev inequality on the surfaces with finite total Gauss
curvature
and quadratic area growth.
