A classifier training method and apparatus for training, a linear classifier trained by the method, and its use, are disclosed. In training the linear classifier, signatures for a set of training samples, such as images, in the form of multi-dimension vectors in a first multi-dimensional space, are converted to a second multi-dimension space, of the same or higher dimensionality than the first multi-dimension space, by applying a set of embedding functions, one for each dimension of the vector space. A linear classifier is trained in the second multi-dimension space. The linear classifier can approximate the accuracy of a non-linear classifier in the original space when predicting labels for new samples, but with lower computation cost in the learning phase.
