3. 3(C) 2006, SNU Biointelligence Lab, http://bi.snu.ac.kr/http://bi.snu.ac.kr/ 1.4 The Curse of Dimensionality The High Dimesionality Problem Ex. Mixture of Oil, Water, Gas - 3-Class (Homogeneous, Annular, Laminar) - 12 Input Variables - Scatter Plot of x6, x7 - Predict Point X - Simple and Naïve Approach

4. 4(C) 2006, SNU Biointelligence Lab, http://bi.snu.ac.kr/http://bi.snu.ac.kr/ 1.4 The Curse of Dimensionality (Cont’d) The Shortcomings of Naïve Approach - The number of cells increase exponentially. - Needs a large training data set for cells not to be empty.

13. 13(C) 2006, SNU Biointelligence Lab, http://bi.snu.ac.kr/http://bi.snu.ac.kr/ 1.6 Information Theory Entropy - The noiseless coding theorem states that the entropy is lower bound on the number of bits needed to transmit the state of a random variable. - Higher Entropy, Lager Uncertainty

16. 16(C) 2006, SNU Biointelligence Lab, http://bi.snu.ac.kr/http://bi.snu.ac.kr/ Mutual Information 1.6 Information Theory (Cont’d) - I[x, y] = H[x] – H[x|y] = H[y] – H[y|x] - If x and y are independent, I[x,y] = 0 - the Reduction in the uncertainty about x by virtue of being told the value of y
