182 nips-2005-Statistical Convergence of Kernel CCA


Source: pdf

Author: Kenji Fukumizu, Arthur Gretton, Francis R. Bach

Abstract: While kernel canonical correlation analysis (kernel CCA) has been applied in many problems, the asymptotic convergence of the functions estimated from a finite sample to the true functions has not yet been established. This paper gives a rigorous proof of the statistical convergence of kernel CCA and a related method (NOCCO), which provides a theoretical justification for these methods. The result also gives a sufficient condition on the decay of the regularization coefficient in the methods to ensure convergence. 1

A Lemmas used in the proofs We list the lemmas used in Section 4. See [6] for the proofs. Lemma 7. Suppose A and B are positive self-adjoint operators on a Hilbert space such that 0 ≤ A ≤ λI and 0 ≤ B ≤ λI hold for a positive constant λ. Then A3/2 − B 3/2 ≤ 3λ3/2 A − B . Lemma 8. Let H1 and H2 be Hilbert spaces, and H0 be a dense linear subspace of H2 . Suppose An and A are bounded operators on H2 , and B is a compact operator from H1 to H2 such that An u → Au for all u ∈ H0 , and supn An ≤ M for some M > 0. Then An B converges to AB in norm. Lemma 9. Let A be a compact positive operator on a Hilbert space H, and An (n ∈ N) be bounded positive operators on H such that An converges to A in norm. Assume the eigenspace of A corresponding to the largest eigenvalue is one-dimensional and spanned by a unit eigenvector φ, and the maximum of the spectrum of An is attained by a unit eigenvector φn . Then we have | φn , φ H | → 1 as n → ∞.
