Trace ratio problem<br />

* Joint work with Thanh Ngo and Mohamed Bellalij<br />

➤ Main point: trace ratio can be maximized inexpensively<br />

Let f(ρ) = max U,U T U=I Trace[U T (A − ρB)U]<br />

<strong>And</strong> let U(ρ) the maximizer of above trace.<br />

➤ Then, under some mild assumptions on A and B :<br />

1) Optimal ρ for trace ratio is a zero of f<br />

2) f ′ (ρ) = −Trace[U(ρ) T BU(ρ)]<br />

3) f is a decreasing function<br />

... + Newton’s method to find zero<br />

amounts to a fixed point iteration:<br />

ρnew = Tr [U(ρ)T AU(ρ)]<br />

Tr [U(ρ) T BU(ρ)]<br />
