Although RDF graphs have schema information associated with them, in practice it is very common to find cases in which data do not fully conform to their schema. A prominent example of this is DBpedia, which is RDF data extracted from…

The use of orthogonal projections on high-dimensional input and target data in learning frameworks is studied. First, we investigate the relations between two standard objectives in dimension reduction, preservation of variance and of…

We present function preserving projections (FPP), a scalable linear projection technique for discovering interpretable relationships in high-dimensional data. Conventional dimension reduction methods aim to maximally preserve the global…
