Bi-Objective Nonnegative Matrix Factorization: Linear Versus Kernel-Based Models
Nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) is a powerful class of feature
extraction techniques that has been successfully applied in many fields, namely
in signal and image processing. Current NMF techniques have been limited to a
single-objective problem in either its linear or nonlinear kernel-based
formulation. In this paper, we propose to revisit the NMF as a multi-objective
problem, in particular a bi-objective one, where the objective functions
defined in both input and feature spaces are taken into account. By taking the
advantage of the sum-weighted method from the literature of multi-objective
optimization, the proposed bi-objective NMF determines a set of nondominated,
Pareto optimal, solutions instead of a single optimal decomposition. Moreover,
the corresponding Pareto front is studied and approximated. Experimental
results on unmixing real hyperspectral images confirm the efficiency of the
proposed bi-objective NMF compared with the state-of-the-art methods
Dynamic mode decomposition in vector-valued reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces for extracting dynamical structure among observables
Understanding nonlinear dynamical systems (NLDSs) is challenging in a variety
of engineering and scientific fields. Dynamic mode decomposition (DMD), which
is a numerical algorithm for the spectral analysis of Koopman operators, has
been attracting attention as a way of obtaining global modal descriptions of
NLDSs without requiring explicit prior knowledge. However, since existing DMD
algorithms are in principle formulated based on the concatenation of scalar
observables, it is not directly applicable to data with dependent structures
among observables, which take, for example, the form of a sequence of graphs.
In this paper, we formulate Koopman spectral analysis for NLDSs with structures
among observables and propose an estimation algorithm for this problem. This
method can extract and visualize the underlying low-dimensional global dynamics
of NLDSs with structures among observables from data, which can be useful in
understanding the underlying dynamics of such NLDSs. To this end, we first
formulate the problem of estimating spectra of the Koopman operator defined in
vector-valued reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces, and then develop an estimation
procedure for this problem by reformulating tensor-based DMD. As a special case
of our method, we propose the method named as Graph DMD, which is a numerical
algorithm for Koopman spectral analysis of graph dynamical systems, using a
sequence of adjacency matrices. We investigate the empirical performance of our
method by using synthetic and real-world data.Comment: 34 pages with 4 figures, Published in Neural Networks, 201
One-Class Classification: Taxonomy of Study and Review of Techniques
One-class classification (OCC) algorithms aim to build classification models
when the negative class is either absent, poorly sampled or not well defined.
This unique situation constrains the learning of efficient classifiers by
defining class boundary just with the knowledge of positive class. The OCC
problem has been considered and applied under many research themes, such as
outlier/novelty detection and concept learning. In this paper we present a
unified view of the general problem of OCC by presenting a taxonomy of study
for OCC problems, which is based on the availability of training data,
algorithms used and the application domains applied. We further delve into each
of the categories of the proposed taxonomy and present a comprehensive
literature review of the OCC algorithms, techniques and methodologies with a
focus on their significance, limitations and applications. We conclude our
paper by discussing some open research problems in the field of OCC and present
our vision for future research.Comment: 24 pages + 11 pages of references, 8 figure
