A supervised multiview spectral embedding method for neuroimaging classification
The multi-view/multi-modal features are commonly used in neuroimaging classification because they could provide complementary information to each other and thus result in better classification performance than single-view features. However, it is very challenging to effectively integrate such rich features, since straightforward concatenation or singleview spectral embedding methods rarely leads to physically meaningful integration. In this paper, we present a supervised multi-view/multi-modal spectral embedding method (SMSE) for neuroimaging classification. This method embeds the high dimensional multi-view features derived from multi-modal neuroimaging data into a low dimensional feature space and preserves the optimal local embeddings among different views. The proposed SMSE algorithm, validated using three groups of neuroimaging data, is able to achieve significant classification improvement over the state-of-the-art multi-view spectral embedding methods.
