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
Adaptive Graph via Multiple Kernel Learning for Nonnegative Matrix Factorization
Nonnegative Matrix Factorization (NMF) has been continuously evolving in
several areas like pattern recognition and information retrieval methods. It
factorizes a matrix into a product of 2 low-rank non-negative matrices that
will define parts-based, and linear representation of nonnegative data.
Recently, Graph regularized NMF (GrNMF) is proposed to find a compact
representation,which uncovers the hidden semantics and simultaneously respects
the intrinsic geometric structure. In GNMF, an affinity graph is constructed
from the original data space to encode the geometrical information. In this
paper, we propose a novel idea which engages a Multiple Kernel Learning
approach into refining the graph structure that reflects the factorization of
the matrix and the new data space. The GrNMF is improved by utilizing the graph
refined by the kernel learning, and then a novel kernel learning method is
introduced under the GrNMF framework. Our approach shows encouraging results of
the proposed algorithm in comparison to the state-of-the-art clustering
algorithms like NMF, GrNMF, SVD etc.Comment: This paper has been withdrawn by the author due to the terrible

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)

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
Proceedings of the second "international Traveling Workshop on Interactions between Sparse models and Technology" (iTWIST'14)
The implicit objective of the biennial "international - Traveling Workshop on
Interactions between Sparse models and Technology" (iTWIST) is to foster
collaboration between international scientific teams by disseminating ideas
through both specific oral/poster presentations and free discussions. For its
second edition, the iTWIST workshop took place in the medieval and picturesque
town of Namur in Belgium, from Wednesday August 27th till Friday August 29th,
2014. The workshop was conveniently located in "The Arsenal" building within
walking distance of both hotels and town center. iTWIST'14 has gathered about
70 international participants and has featured 9 invited talks, 10 oral
presentations, and 14 posters on the following themes, all related to the
theory, application and generalization of the "sparsity paradigm":
Sparsity-driven data sensing and processing; Union of low dimensional
subspaces; Beyond linear and convex inverse problem; Matrix/manifold/graph
sensing/processing; Blind inverse problems and dictionary learning; Sparsity
and computational neuroscience; Information theory, geometry and randomness;
Complexity/accuracy tradeoffs in numerical methods; Sparsity? What's next?;
Sparse machine learning and inference.Comment: 69 pages, 24 extended abstracts, iTWIST'14 website:
