Abstract：A kernel based supervised manifold learning method is presented to solve the problems on parameter selection with locality preserving projection and inability in nonlinear feature extraction, which is unresolved by the currently proposed manifold learning algorithm. The proposed algorithm is an improvement of locality preserving projection (LPP). The nearest neighbor graph is created with the class label information of the samples, and nonparametric similarity measure is used. The kernel method is used to solve the limitation problem of the nonlinear separability for LPP. The feasibility and effectivity of the proposed algorithm are testified on two databases.
