英文摘要：

Global preserving manifold learning algorithms are mainly based on preserving global geometric properties between high-dimensional observed space and intrinsic low-dimensional manifold.This paper compares in detail the characters and interre-lations of several classical manifold learning algorithms based on preserving global properties.Some advantages and shortcomings of these algorithms are shown.Experimental results demonstrate the differences of these algorithms about intrinsic dimension and intrinsic low-dimensional manifold.Finally,several new research directions of manifold learning are proposed.
