Collaborative representation-based classification (CRC) has demonstrated remarkable progress in the past few years because of its closed-form analytical solutions. However, the existing CRC methods are incapable of processing the nonlinear variational information directly. Recent advances illustrate that how to effectively model these nonlinear variational information and learn invariant representations is an open challenge in the community of computer vision and pattern recognition To this end, we try to design a new algorithm to handle this problem. Firstly, the second-order statistic, i.e., covariance matrix is applied to model the original image sets. Due to the space formed by a set of nonsingular covariance matrices is a well-known Symmetric Positive Definite (SPD) manifold, generalising the Euclidean collaborative representation to the SPD manifold is not an easy task. Then, we devise two strategies to cope with this issue. One attempts to embed the SPD manifold-valued data representations into an associated tangent space via the matrix logarithm map. Another is to embed them into a Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Space (RKHS) by utilizing the Riemannian kernel function. After these two treatments, CRC is applicable to the SPD manifold-valued features. The evaluations on four banchmarking datasets justify its effectiveness.
