PCA-Boosted Autoencoders for Nonlinear Dimensionality Reduction in Low Data Regimes

Muhammad Al-Digeil, Yuri Grinberg, Daniele Melati3 +5

Autoencoders (AE) provide a useful method for nonlinear dimensionality reduction but are ill-suited for low data regimes. Conversely, Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is data-eff…
