Manifold learning covers those learning algorithms where high-dimensional data is assumed to lie on a low-dimensional manifold (usually nonlinear). Specific classification algorithms are able to preserve this manifold structure. On the other hand, ordinal regression covers those learning problems where the objective is to classify patterns into labels from a set of ordered categories. There have been very few works combining both ordinal regression and manifold learning. Additionally, privileged information refers to some special features which are available during classifier training, but not in the test phase. This paper contributes a new algorithm for combining ordinal regression and manifold learning, based on the idea of constructing a neighbourhood graph and obtaining the shortest path between all pairs of patterns. Moreover, we propose to exploit privileged information during graph construction, in order to obtain a better representation of the underlying manifold. The approach is tested with one synthetic experiment and 5 real ordinal datasets, showing a promising potential.

This paper deals with the idea of decomposing ordinal multiclass classification problems when working with kernel methods. The kernel parameters are optimised for each classification subtask in order to better adjust the kernel to the data. More flexible multi-scale Gaussian kernels are considered to increase the goodness of fit of the kernel matrices. Instead of learning independent models for all the subtasks, the optimum convex combination of the kernel matrices is then obtained, leading to a single model able to better discriminate the classes in the feature space. The results of the proposed algorithm shows promising potential for the acquisition of better suited kernels.
The firefigther problem is a deterministic discrete-time model for the spread (and the containment) of fire on an undirected graph. Assuming that the fire breaks out at a predefined set of vertices, the goal is to sav...
