3-D motion recovery via low rank matrix analysis
Skeleton tracking is a useful and popular application
of Kinect. However, it cannot provide accurate reconstructions
for complex motions, especially in the presence of occlusion. This
paper proposes a new 3-D motion recovery method based on lowrank
matrix analysis to correct invalid or corrupted motions.
We address this problem by representing a motion sequence as
a matrix, and introducing a convex low-rank matrix recovery
model, which fixes erroneous entries and finds the correct
low-rank matrix by minimizing nuclear norm and `1-norm
of constituent clean motion and error matrices. Experimental
results show that our method recovers the corrupted skeleton
joints, achieving accurate and smooth reconstructions even for
complicated motions
Robust Rotation Synchronization via Low-rank and Sparse Matrix Decomposition
This paper deals with the rotation synchronization problem, which arises in
global registration of 3D point-sets and in structure from motion. The problem
is formulated in an unprecedented way as a "low-rank and sparse" matrix
decomposition that handles both outliers and missing data. A minimization
strategy, dubbed R-GoDec, is also proposed and evaluated experimentally against
state-of-the-art algorithms on simulated and real data. The results show that
R-GoDec is the fastest among the robust algorithms.Comment: The material contained in this paper is part of a manuscript

Completing Low-Rank Matrices with Corrupted Samples from Few Coefficients in General Basis
Subspace recovery from corrupted and missing data is crucial for various
applications in signal processing and information theory. To complete missing
values and detect column corruptions, existing robust Matrix Completion (MC)
methods mostly concentrate on recovering a low-rank matrix from few corrupted
coefficients w.r.t. standard basis, which, however, does not apply to more
general basis, e.g., Fourier basis. In this paper, we prove that the range
space of an matrix with rank can be exactly recovered from few
coefficients w.r.t. general basis, though and the number of corrupted
samples are both as high as . Our model covers
previous ones as special cases, and robust MC can recover the intrinsic matrix
with a higher rank. Moreover, we suggest a universal choice of the
regularization parameter, which is . By our
filtering algorithm, which has theoretical guarantees, we can
further reduce the computational cost of our model. As an application, we also
find that the solutions to extended robust Low-Rank Representation and to our
extended robust MC are mutually expressible, so both our theory and algorithm
can be applied to the subspace clustering problem with missing values under
certain conditions. Experiments verify our theories.Comment: To appear in IEEE Transactions on Information Theor
Sparse Subspace Clustering: Algorithm, Theory, and Applications
In many real-world problems, we are dealing with collections of
high-dimensional data, such as images, videos, text and web documents, DNA
microarray data, and more. Often, high-dimensional data lie close to
low-dimensional structures corresponding to several classes or categories the
data belongs to. In this paper, we propose and study an algorithm, called
Sparse Subspace Clustering (SSC), to cluster data points that lie in a union of
low-dimensional subspaces. The key idea is that, among infinitely many possible
representations of a data point in terms of other points, a sparse
representation corresponds to selecting a few points from the same subspace.
This motivates solving a sparse optimization program whose solution is used in
a spectral clustering framework to infer the clustering of data into subspaces.
Since solving the sparse optimization program is in general NP-hard, we
consider a convex relaxation and show that, under appropriate conditions on the
arrangement of subspaces and the distribution of data, the proposed
minimization program succeeds in recovering the desired sparse representations.
The proposed algorithm can be solved efficiently and can handle data points
near the intersections of subspaces. Another key advantage of the proposed
algorithm with respect to the state of the art is that it can deal with data
nuisances, such as noise, sparse outlying entries, and missing entries,
directly by incorporating the model of the data into the sparse optimization
program. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm through
experiments on synthetic data as well as the two real-world problems of motion
