Correntropy Maximization via ADMM - Application to Robust Hyperspectral Unmixing
In hyperspectral images, some spectral bands suffer from low signal-to-noise
ratio due to noisy acquisition and atmospheric effects, thus requiring robust
techniques for the unmixing problem. This paper presents a robust supervised
spectral unmixing approach for hyperspectral images. The robustness is achieved
by writing the unmixing problem as the maximization of the correntropy
criterion subject to the most commonly used constraints. Two unmixing problems
are derived: the first problem considers the fully-constrained unmixing, with
both the non-negativity and sum-to-one constraints, while the second one deals
with the non-negativity and the sparsity-promoting of the abundances. The
corresponding optimization problems are solved efficiently using an alternating
direction method of multipliers (ADMM) approach. Experiments on synthetic and
real hyperspectral images validate the performance of the proposed algorithms
for different scenarios, demonstrating that the correntropy-based unmixing is
robust to outlier bands.Comment: 23 page
Document Clustering Based On Max-Correntropy Non-Negative Matrix Factorization
Nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) has been successfully applied to many
areas for classification and clustering. Commonly-used NMF algorithms mainly
target on minimizing the distance or Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence,
which may not be suitable for nonlinear case. In this paper, we propose a new
decomposition method by maximizing the correntropy between the original and the
product of two low-rank matrices for document clustering. This method also
allows us to learn the new basis vectors of the semantic feature space from the
data. To our knowledge, we haven't seen any work has been done by maximizing
correntropy in NMF to cluster high dimensional document data. Our experiment
results show the supremacy of our proposed method over other variants of NMF
algorithm on Reuters21578 and TDT2 databasets.Comment: International Conference of Machine Learning and Cybernetics (ICMLC)

Graph Regularized Non-negative Matrix Factorization By Maximizing Correntropy
Non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) has proved effective in many
clustering and classification tasks. The classic ways to measure the errors
between the original and the reconstructed matrix are distance or
Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence. However, nonlinear cases are not properly
handled when we use these error measures. As a consequence, alternative
measures based on nonlinear kernels, such as correntropy, are proposed.
However, the current correntropy-based NMF only targets on the low-level
features without considering the intrinsic geometrical distribution of data. In
this paper, we propose a new NMF algorithm that preserves local invariance by
adding graph regularization into the process of max-correntropy-based matrix
factorization. Meanwhile, each feature can learn corresponding kernel from the
data. The experiment results of Caltech101 and Caltech256 show the benefits of
such combination against other NMF algorithms for the unsupervised image
clustering
Investigation of the performance of multi-input multi-output detectors based on deep learning in non-Gaussian environments
The next generation of wireless cellular communication networks must be energy efficient, extremely reliable, and have low latency, leading to the necessity of using algorithms based on deep neural networks (DNN) which have better bit error rate (BER) or symbol error rate (SER) performance than traditional complex multi-antenna or multi-input multi-output (MIMO) detectors. This paper examines deep neural networks and deep iterative detectors such as OAMP-Net based on information theory criteria such as maximum correntropy criterion (MCC) for the implementation of MIMO detectors in non-Gaussian environments, and the results illustrate that the proposed method has better BER or SER performance
