Kurtosis-based projection pursuit for matrix-valued data
2021
We develop projection pursuit for data that admit a natural representation in matrix form. For projection indices, we propose extensions of the classical kurtosis and Mardia's multivariate kurtosis. The first index estimates projections for both sides of the matrices simultaneously, while the second index finds the two projections separately. Both indices are shown to recover the optimally separating projection for two-group Gaussian mixtures in the full absence of any label information. We further establish the strong consistency of the corresponding sample estimators. Simulations and a real data example on hand-written postal code data are used to demonstrate the method.
