Theoretical Foundations of Principal Manifold Estimation with Non-Euclidean Templates

Kun Meng, Christopher Perez

We develop a rigorous theoretical framework for principal manifold estimation that recovers a latent low-dimensional manifold from a point cloud observed in a high-dimensional ambi…

Longitudinal Principal Manifold Estimation

Robert Zielinski, Kun Meng, Ani Eloyan

Longitudinal magnetic resonance imaging data is used to model trajectories of change in brain regions of interest to identify areas susceptible to atrophy in those with neurodegene…

Principal manifold estimation via model complexity selection

Kun Meng, Ani Eloyan

We propose a framework of principal manifolds to model high-dimensional data. This framework is based on Sobolev spaces and designed to model data of any intrinsic dimension. It in…
