ABSTRACT:
A system and method of machine learning that uses an inverse matrix of a reference similarity matrix as a transformation matrix. The reference similarity matrix relates a reference set of objects to themselves using a distance metric such as an image edit distance. The transformation matrix is used to improve the performance of query vectors in classifying or identifying digital representations of an unknown object. The query vector is a measure of similarity between the unknown object and the members of the reference set. Multiplying the query vector by the transformation matrix produces an improved query vector having improved similarity scores. The highest improved similarity score indicates the best match member of the reference set If the similarity score is high enough, the unknown object may either be classified as belonging to the same class, or recognized as being the same object, as the best match object.
