Computer-implemented method and computer system for supervised machine learning

Abstract:

A computer-implemented method and computer system for supervised machine learning and classification comprises applying, by a dimensional visualization module incorporating a global objective function, an unsupervised dimension reduction algorithm to a dataset including a plurality of data points capable of visual representation to produce a dimensionally reduced dataset and parsing, by the dimensional visualization module, the dimensionally reduced dataset to a user interface module for visual display of the dimensionally reduced dataset. The method comprises receiving a user input indicative of a categorization of at least one of the data points within the dataset, applying, by the dimensional visualization module, the global objective function weighted in accordance with the indicative categorization, to the dimensionally reduced dataset to produce a user-enhanced dimensionally reduced dataset, and parsing, by the dimensional visualization module, the user-enhanced dimensionally reduced dataset to the user interface module for visual display of the dimensionally reduced dataset.
