Data Representation

sparse-coding

A representation method that encodes data with a small number of active features.

Expanded definition

Sparse coding is an approach in signal processing and machine learning where data is represented as a linear combination of a small number of basis functions, leading to a more compact representation. This method is particularly effective in scenarios involving high-dimensional data, as it can enhance interpretability and reduce computational complexity. Applications include image processing and feature extraction.
