- Abstract:
-
In this paper the relationships between the eigenvalues of the m x m Gram matrix K for a kernel k(.,.) corresponding to a sample x_1, ..., x_m drawn from a density p(x) and the eigenvalues of the corresponding continuous eigenproblem is analyzed. The differences between the two spectra are bounded and a performance bound on kernel PCA is provided showing that good perfromance can be expected even in very high dimensional feature spaces provided that the sample eigenvalues fall sufficiently quickly.
