A Smoothed Matrix Multivariate Elliptical Distribution-Based Projection Method for Feature Extraction

Algorithm 1

Iterative Algorithm for solving α.
Input: a dataset of n training image matrices{Xic}∈Rm×n, m = p×q, and an image matrix Y ∈ Rp×q
Initialize t = 1, R = I ∈ Rn×n, T = e ∈ Rn, λ > 0, μ > 0 and ε= 1×e−3
while not converged do
(1)Update αi(t+1) as follows:
(2)Update Rt+1 and Tt+1 as follows:
(3)t = t+1.
(4)If ||αt+1αt || ≤ ε, break.
end while
Output: the adjacent weight matrix α
