Ex 2 Task 2
I have a question about the last ToDo in Task2. It says, the image has to be projected on our 20 dimensional subspace. Why is our subspace 20 dimensional? I calculated the subspace from the 760 images in yale_faces/, which resulted in a 760 dimensional subspace.

It seems you do not well understand the concepts of space and space basis.Tigger hat geschrieben:I have a question about the last ToDo in Task2.

All eigenvectors have the dimension of number of image pixels, and composed the basis of a new space. If you use N eigenvectors as the basis, each image can be represented as a N-D vector. Thus we say the subspace is N dimensional.

I am a little bit confused by this issue, too. If i am not mistaken, by applying SVD on all the images we obtain 760 eigenvectors, each with a dimension of something about 8000.
So where does the "20" come from? Should we only use the 20 "most important" vectors to form our subspace?

Re: Ex 2 Task 2
I think this is it. We choose the 20 dimensional subspace by selecting the corresponding eigenvectors. The idea is clear, i was just a little confused by the formulation of the task.Sete hat geschrieben:Should we only use the 20 "most important" vectors to form our subspace?
