摘要
This work develops a new method for vector data augmentation. The proposed method applies principal component analysis (PCA), determines the eigenvectors of a set of training vectors for a machine learning (ML) method and uses them to generate the distilled vectors. The training and PCA-distilled vectors have the same dimension. The user chooses the number of vectors to be distilled and augmented to the set of training vectors. A statistical approach determines the lowest number of vectors to be distilled such that when augmented to the original vectors, the extended set trains an ML classifier to achieve a required accuracy. Hence, the novelty of this study is the distillation of vectors with the PCA method and their use to augment the original set of vectors. The advantage that comes from the novelty is that it increases the statistics of ML classifiers. To validate the advantage, we conducted experiments with four public databases and applied four classifiers: a neural network, logistic regression and support vector machine with linear and polynomial kernels. For the purpose of augmentation, we conducted several distillations, including nested distillation (double distillation). The latter notion means that new vectors were distilled from already distilled vectors. We trained the classifiers with three sets of vectors: the original vectors, original vectors augmented with vectors distilled by PCA and original vectors augmented with distilled PCA vectors and double distilled by PCA vectors. The experimental results are presented in the paper, and they confirm the advantage of the PCA-distilled vectors increasing the classification statistics of ML methods if the distilled vectors augment the original training vectors.
