Semi-Supervised Learning with Density-Sensitive Manifold graph
The key problem of Graph-Based Semi-Supervised Learning (GBSSL) methods is how to construct the graph structure under some assumptions. While distance information among graph nodes is investigated well for graph construction, the density information is not given enough attention. In this paper, we propose a novel GBSSL method, named Density-Sensitive Manifold Learning (DSML), which introduces density distribution into graph construction by calculating a new propagation coefficient matrix. The experimental results show that DSML scheme performs better than traditional GBSSL methods. More importantly, the new propagation coefficient matrix can be easily introduced into traditional GBSSL methods to improve their performance, which is also validated in the experiments.
