Locally linear embedding (LLE) [1] is a type of manifold algorithms, which preserves inner product value between high-dimensional data when embedding the high-dimensional data to low-dimensional space. LLE closely embeds data points on the same subspace in low-dimensional space, because the data points have significant inner product values. On the other hand, if the data points are located orthogonal to each other, these are separately embedded in low-dimensional space, even though they are in close proximity to each other in high-dimensional space. Meanwhile, it is well known that the facial images of the same person under varying illumination lie in a low-dimensional linear subspace [2]. In this study, we suggest an improved LLE method for face recognition problem. The method maximizes the characteristic of LLE, which embeds the data points totally separately when they are located orthogonal to each other. To accomplish this, all of the subspaces made by each class are forced to locate orthogonally. To make all of the subspaces orthogonal, the simultaneous Diagonalization (SD) technique was applied. From experimental results, the suggested method is shown to dramatically improve the embedding results and classification performance.

Over the past decade, the development of the Web explosively increased the data. Feature selection step is an important step in extracting valuable data from a large amount of data. This study proposes a novel opinion mining model based on combining feature selection (FS) methods with Word embedding to vector (Word2vec) and BOW (Bag-of-words). FS methods adopted for this study are CFS (Correlation based FS) and IG (Information Gain). To select an optimal FS method, a number of classifiers ranging from LR (logistic regression), NN (neural network), NBN (naive Bayesian network) to RF (random forest), RS (random subspace), ST (stacking). Empirical results with electronics and kitchen datasets showed that LR and ST classifiers combined with IG applied to BOW features yield best performance in opinion mining. Results with laptop and restaurant datasets revealed that the RF classifier using IG applied to Word2vec features represents best performance in opinion mining.
