Abstract
A system and method for applying a linear transformation to classify and input event. In one aspect, a method for classification comprises the steps of capturing an input event; extracting an n-dimensional feature vector from the input event; applying a linear transformation to the feature vector to generate a pool of projections; utilizing different subsets from the pool of projections to classify the feature vector; and outputting a class identity of the classified feature vector. In another aspect, the step of utilizing different subsets from the pool of projections to classify the feature vector comprises the steps of, for each predefined class, selecting a subset from the pool of projections associated with the class; computing a score for the class based on the associated subset; and assigning, to the feature vector, the class having the highest computed score.
