Dimensionality reduction is becoming increasingly important in the field of machine learning. In this book, we outline several traditional methods of dimensionality reduction, which include random projections, principal component analysis, singular value decomposition, kernel principal component analysis and discrete cosine transform. We discuss several existing applications of random projections (or dimensionality reduction, in general). We also outline query-based dimensionality reduction methods that can be used for text, image and web data.In each of the traditional approaches to dimensionality reduction (named above), each attribute in the reduced set is actually a linear combination of the attributes in the original data set. In this book, we take the position that true dimensionality reduction is obtained when the set of attributes in the reduced set is a proper subset of the attributes in the original data set, and we discuss seven novel approaches which satisfy this...
