Graph-Based Discrete Differential Geometry for Critical Instance Filtering

Abstract

Graph theory has been shown to provide a powerful tool for representing and tackling machine learning problems, such as clustering, semi-supervised learning, and feature ranking. This paper proposes a graph-based discrete differential operator for detecting and eliminating competence-critical instances and class label noise from a training set in order to improve classification performance. Results of extensive experiments on artificial and real-life classification problems substantiate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
