A Survey on Soft Subspace Clustering
Subspace clustering (SC) is a promising clustering technology to identify
clusters based on their associations with subspaces in high dimensional spaces.
SC can be classified into hard subspace clustering (HSC) and soft subspace
clustering (SSC). While HSC algorithms have been extensively studied and well
accepted by the scientific community, SSC algorithms are relatively new but
gaining more attention in recent years due to better adaptability. In the
paper, a comprehensive survey on existing SSC algorithms and the recent
development are presented. The SSC algorithms are classified systematically
into three main categories, namely, conventional SSC (CSSC), independent SSC
(ISSC) and extended SSC (XSSC). The characteristics of these algorithms are
highlighted and the potential future development of SSC is also discussed.Comment: This paper has been published in Information Sciences Journal in 201
Random forests with random projections of the output space for high dimensional multi-label classification
We adapt the idea of random projections applied to the output space, so as to
enhance tree-based ensemble methods in the context of multi-label
classification. We show how learning time complexity can be reduced without
affecting computational complexity and accuracy of predictions. We also show
that random output space projections may be used in order to reach different
bias-variance tradeoffs, over a broad panel of benchmark problems, and that
this may lead to improved accuracy while reducing significantly the
computational burden of the learning stage
