Rotation-Based Subspace Tracking for Robust Kernel PCA on Streaming Data

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2609.15488v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Machine learning models process large amounts of data, and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is a widely used technique to reduce the dimensionality of the data and extract useful features. In practice, datasets often change over time (data drift) and/or arrive one sample at a time (streaming data), making it infeasible to process the entire dataset at once in batch mode. Real-world data also often contains nonlinear patterns, which traditional PCA cannot extract. Kernel PCA addresses this by implicitly mapping samples into a Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Space (RKHS). Raw data also often contains outliers, which can have an outsized effect on the estimated subspace unless the algorithm is made robust. However, existing online robust kernel PCA
