Hyper-Ellipsoidal Conjugate Gradient Descent

On this page you can find a MATLAB implementation of the Hyper-Ellipsoidal Conjugate Gradient Descent algorithm, that can be used for sparse opitimization of second order kernel methods like kernel-PCA, kernel-SFA (slow feature analysis), or kernel-CCA (canonical correlation analysis).
