Abstract

We introduce and investigate the iterated application of Gen-
eralized Matrix Relevance Learning for the analysis of feature relevances in
classification problems. The suggested Iterated Relevance Matrix Analysis
(IRMA), identifies a linear subspace representing the classification specific
information of the considered data sets in feature space using General-
ized Matrix Learning Vector Quantization. By iteratively determining a
new discriminative direction while projecting out all previously identified
ones, all features carrying relevant information about the classification can
be found, facilitating a detailed analysis of feature relevances. Moreover,
IRMA can be used to generate improved low-dimensional representations
and visualizations of labeled data sets.
