Q2. What is the metric for term frequency?
A metric can be based on the simple Euclidean distance if document vectors are properly normalized, otherwise angular distance may be useful.
Q3. How do the authors filter out the inevitable noise?
By projecting the term-frequency vectors on a relatively low dimensional subspace, say determined by the maximal amount of variance one would be able to filter out the inevitable ‘noise’.
Q4. What is the meaning of the term-document matrix?
The vector space representation can be used for classification and retrieval by noting that similar documents are somehow expected to be ‘close’ in the vector space.
Q5. What is the purpose of the research programme?
The authors are currently pursuing a research programme, trying to understand the limitations of the ecological hypothesis for higher level cognitive processes, such as grouping abstract objects, navigating social networks, understanding multi-speaker environments, and understanding the representational differences between self and environment.
Q6. What is the simplest way to make the visualization independent of pitch?
To make the visualization relatively independent of ‘pitch’, the authors use the so-called mel-cepstral representation (MFCC, K = 13 coefficients pr. frame).
Q7. What is the fundamental observation behind the latent semantic indexing approach?
The fundamental observation behind the latent semantic indexing (LSI) approach is that similar documents are using similar vocabularies, hence, the vectors of a given topic could appear as produced by a stochastic process with highly correlated term-entries.
Q8. What are the eigenvectors of the matrix?
The eigenvectors of this matrix are called ‘eigencasts’ and represent characteristic communities of actors that tend to co-appear in movies.
Q9. What is the definition of a cognitive component analysis?
The authors thus define cognitive component analysis (COCA) as unsupervised grouping of data such that the ensuing group structure is well-aligned with that resulting from human cognitive activity [8].
Q10. What is the significance of the label structure in the real world?
It is a fascinating finding in many real world data sets that the label structure discovered by unsupervised learning closely coincides with labels obtained by letting a human or a group of humans perform classification, labels derived from human cognition.
Q11. How can the authors estimate consensus musical genre?
It is now feasible to estimate consensus musical genre by supervised learning from rather short music segments, say 5-10 seconds, see e.g., [18], thus enabling computerized handling of music request at a high cognitive complexity level.
