Query: Sparse Kernel PCA for Outlier Detection   In this paper, we propose a new method to perform Sparse Kernel Principal
Component Analysis (SKPCA) and also mathematically analyze the validity of
SKPCA. We formulate SKPCA as a constrained optimization problem with elastic
net regularization (Hastie et al.) in kernel feature space and solve it. We
consider outlier detection (where KPCA is employed) as an application for
SKPCA, using the RBF kernel. We test it on 5 real-world datasets and show that
by using just 4% (or even less) of the principal components (PCs), where each
PC has on average less than 12% non-zero elements in the worst case among all 5
datasets, we are able to nearly match and in 3 datasets even outperform KPCA.
We also compare the performance of our method with a recently proposed method
for SKPCA by Wang et al. and show that our method performs better in terms of
both accuracy and sparsity. We also provide a novel probabilistic proof to
justify the existence of sparse solutions for KPCA using the RBF kernel. To the
best of our knowledge, this is the first attempt at theoretically analyzing the
validity of SKPCA.
