Globally Maximizing Locally Minimizing unsupervised discriminant projection with applications to face and palm biometrics PAMI 2007 Bo Yang 2/25/2019
Motivation Shortage of existing manifold algorithms for Classification: Locality: has no direct connection to classification non-locality: modeling multi-manifolds the inter-cluster scatter, may provide crucial information for discrimination seeks to maximize the ratio of the nonlocal scatter to the local scatter.

LINKS TO LPP UDP maximizes the ratio of the nonlocal scatter (or the global scatter) to the local scatter whereas LPP minimizes the local scatter
LINKS TO LDA LDA can be regarded as a special case of UDP if we assume that each class has the same number of training samples

Comment LPP UDP UDP and LPP essentially share the same basic idea: simultaneously minimizing the local quantity and maximizing the global quantity.
Comment the numerators in (1) and (2), are two equivalent the denominators in (1) and (2), are two similar scatters the projections derived from UDP and LPP are identical under the assumption that the local density is uniform
Comment
Comment we would like to conclude that UDP is an effective algorithm as a simplified, or regularized, version of LPP, but there is no reason to prefer UDP over LPP for the general classification and clustering tasks.
Thank you !
