A deep matrix factorization method for learning attribute representations
Semi-Non-negative Matrix Factorization is a technique that learns a
low-dimensional representation of a dataset that lends itself to a clustering
interpretation. It is possible that the mapping between this new representation
and our original data matrix contains rather complex hierarchical information
with implicit lower-level hidden attributes, that classical one level
clustering methodologies can not interpret. In this work we propose a novel
model, Deep Semi-NMF, that is able to learn such hidden representations that
allow themselves to an interpretation of clustering according to different,
unknown attributes of a given dataset. We also present a semi-supervised
version of the algorithm, named Deep WSF, that allows the use of (partial)
prior information for each of the known attributes of a dataset, that allows
the model to be used on datasets with mixed attribute knowledge. Finally, we
show that our models are able to learn low-dimensional representations that are
better suited for clustering, but also classification, outperforming
Semi-Non-negative Matrix Factorization, but also other state-of-the-art
methodologies variants.Comment: Submitted to TPAMI (16-Mar-2015
New Approaches in Multi-View Clustering
Many real-world datasets can be naturally described by multiple views. Due to this, multi-view learning has drawn much attention from both academia and industry. Compared to single-view learning, multi-view learning has demonstrated plenty of advantages. Clustering has long been serving as a critical technique in data mining and machine learning. Recently, multi-view clustering has achieved great success in various applications. To provide a comprehensive review of the typical multi-view clustering methods and their corresponding recent developments, this chapter summarizes five kinds of popular clustering methods and their multi-view learning versions, which include k-means, spectral clustering, matrix factorization, tensor decomposition, and deep learning. These clustering methods are the most widely employed algorithms for single-view data, and lots of efforts have been devoted to extending them for multi-view clustering. Besides, many other multi-view clustering methods can be unified into the frameworks of these five methods. To promote further research and development of multi-view clustering, some popular and open datasets are summarized in two categories. Furthermore, several open issues that deserve more exploration are pointed out in the end
