Abstract

Kernel methods have been successfully used in many practical machine learning problems. Choosing a suitable kernel is left to the practitioner. A common way to an automatic selection of optimal kernels is to learn a linear combination of element kernels. In this paper, a novel framework of multiple kernel learning is proposed based on conditional entropy minimization criterion. For the proposed framework, three multiple kernel learning algorithms are derived. The algorithms are experimentally shown to be comparable to or outperform kernel Fisher discriminant analysis and other multiple kernel learning algorithms on benchmark data sets.
