Locality-Preserving Partial Least Squares Regression

Abstract

AbstractThis chapter proposes another nonlinear PLS method, named as locality-preserving partial least squares (LPPLS), which embeds the nonlinear degenerative and structure-preserving properties of LPP into the PLS model. The core of LPPLS is to replace the role of PCA in PLS with LPP. When extracting the principal components of $$\boldsymbol{t}_i$$ t i and $$\boldsymbol{u}_i$$ u i , two conditions must satisfy: (1) $$\boldsymbol{t}_i$$ t i and $$\boldsymbol{u}_i$$ u i retain the most information about the local nonlinear structure of their respective data sets. (2) The correlation between $$\boldsymbol{t}_i$$ t i and $$\boldsymbol{u}_i$$ u i is the largest. Finally, a quality-related monitoring strategy is established based on LPPLS.
