Orthogonal Random Features: Explicit Forms and Sharp Inequalities

11 Oct 2023  ·  Nizar Demni, Hachem Kadri ·

Random features have been introduced to scale up kernel methods via randomization techniques. In particular, random Fourier features and orthogonal random features were used to approximate the popular Gaussian kernel. The former is performed by a random Gaussian matrix and leads exactly to the Gaussian kernel after averaging. In this work, we analyze the bias and the variance of the kernel approximation based on orthogonal random features which makes use of Haar orthogonal matrices. We provide explicit expressions for these quantities using normalized Bessel functions and derive sharp exponential bounds supporting the view that orthogonal random features are more informative than random Fourier features.
