On the properties of optimal point configurations for a family of comparison functionals for metric configurations
A. I. Maysuradze Faculty of Computational Mathematics and Cybernetics, Moscow State University, Leninskie gory, Moscow, 119992, Russia
Abstract:
The problem of searching for an optimal point configuration (i.e., a set of points such that the distances between them best fit a given metric configuration) is considered. An upper bound is obtained for the dimension of a space in which any metric configuration can be represented exactly or approximately by an optimal point configuration. It is shown that, if there is no point configuration that exactly represents a given metric configuration, then, for a natural family of comparison functionals for metric configurations, the dimension of a space in which there is an optimal point configuration is lower than the dimension required in the general case for representing a metric configuration of a given cardinality.
Key words:
pattern recognition, data mining, geometry of distances, multidimensional scaling, error estimation.
