A nonlinear principal component analysis on image data

Principal component analysis (PCA) has been applied in various areas such as pattern recognition and data compression. In some cases, however, PCA does not extract the characteristic of the data-distribution efficiently. In order to overcome this problem, we have proposed a novel method of nonlinear PCA which preserves the order of principal components. In this paper, we reduce the dimensionality of image data with the proposed method, and examine its effectiveness in compression and recognition of the images
