Kernel Truncated Regression Representation for Robust Subspace Clustering
Subspace clustering aims to group data points into multiple clusters of which
each corresponds to one subspace. Most existing subspace clustering approaches
assume that input data lie on linear subspaces. In practice, however, this
assumption usually does not hold. To achieve nonlinear subspace clustering, we
propose a novel method, called kernel truncated regression representation. Our
method consists of the following four steps: 1) projecting the input data into
a hidden space, where each data point can be linearly represented by other data
points; 2) calculating the linear representation coefficients of the data
representations in the hidden space; 3) truncating the trivial coefficients to
achieve robustness and block-diagonality; and 4) executing the graph cutting
operation on the coefficient matrix by solving a graph Laplacian problem. Our
method has the advantages of a closed-form solution and the capacity of
clustering data points that lie on nonlinear subspaces. The first advantage
makes our method efficient in handling large-scale datasets, and the second one
enables the proposed method to conquer the nonlinear subspace clustering
challenge. Extensive experiments on six benchmarks demonstrate the
effectiveness and the efficiency of the proposed method in comparison with
current state-of-the-art approaches.Comment: 14 page
Fast Low-rank Representation based Spatial Pyramid Matching for Image Classification
Spatial Pyramid Matching (SPM) and its variants have achieved a lot of
success in image classification. The main difference among them is their
encoding schemes. For example, ScSPM incorporates Sparse Code (SC) instead of
Vector Quantization (VQ) into the framework of SPM. Although the methods
achieve a higher recognition rate than the traditional SPM, they consume more
time to encode the local descriptors extracted from the image. In this paper,
we propose using Low Rank Representation (LRR) to encode the descriptors under
the framework of SPM. Different from SC, LRR considers the group effect among
data points instead of sparsity. Benefiting from this property, the proposed
method (i.e., LrrSPM) can offer a better performance. To further improve the
generalizability and robustness, we reformulate the rank-minimization problem
as a truncated projection problem. Extensive experimental studies show that
LrrSPM is more efficient than its counterparts (e.g., ScSPM) while achieving
competitive recognition rates on nine image data sets.Comment: accepted into knowledge based systems, 201
Tensor Networks for Dimensionality Reduction and Large-Scale Optimizations. Part 2 Applications and Future Perspectives
Part 2 of this monograph builds on the introduction to tensor networks and
their operations presented in Part 1. It focuses on tensor network models for
super-compressed higher-order representation of data/parameters and related
cost functions, while providing an outline of their applications in machine
learning and data analytics. A particular emphasis is on the tensor train (TT)
and Hierarchical Tucker (HT) decompositions, and their physically meaningful
interpretations which reflect the scalability of the tensor network approach.
Through a graphical approach, we also elucidate how, by virtue of the
underlying low-rank tensor approximations and sophisticated contractions of
core tensors, tensor networks have the ability to perform distributed
computations on otherwise prohibitively large volumes of data/parameters,
thereby alleviating or even eliminating the curse of dimensionality. The
usefulness of this concept is illustrated over a number of applied areas,
including generalized regression and classification (support tensor machines,
canonical correlation analysis, higher order partial least squares),
generalized eigenvalue decomposition, Riemannian optimization, and in the
optimization of deep neural networks. Part 1 and Part 2 of this work can be
used either as stand-alone separate texts, or indeed as a conjoint
comprehensive review of the exciting field of low-rank tensor networks and
tensor decompositions.Comment: 232 page

Hyperspectral Unmixing Overview: Geometrical, Statistical, and Sparse Regression-Based Approaches
Imaging spectrometers measure electromagnetic energy scattered in their
instantaneous field view in hundreds or thousands of spectral channels with
higher spectral resolution than multispectral cameras. Imaging spectrometers
are therefore often referred to as hyperspectral cameras (HSCs). Higher
spectral resolution enables material identification via spectroscopic analysis,
which facilitates countless applications that require identifying materials in
scenarios unsuitable for classical spectroscopic analysis. Due to low spatial
resolution of HSCs, microscopic material mixing, and multiple scattering,
spectra measured by HSCs are mixtures of spectra of materials in a scene. Thus,
accurate estimation requires unmixing. Pixels are assumed to be mixtures of a
few materials, called endmembers. Unmixing involves estimating all or some of:
the number of endmembers, their spectral signatures, and their abundances at
each pixel. Unmixing is a challenging, ill-posed inverse problem because of
model inaccuracies, observation noise, environmental conditions, endmember
variability, and data set size. Researchers have devised and investigated many
models searching for robust, stable, tractable, and accurate unmixing
algorithms. This paper presents an overview of unmixing methods from the time
of Keshava and Mustard's unmixing tutorial [1] to the present. Mixing models
are first discussed. Signal-subspace, geometrical, statistical, sparsity-based,
and spatial-contextual unmixing algorithms are described. Mathematical problems
and potential solutions are described. Algorithm characteristics are
illustrated experimentally.Comment: This work has been accepted for publication in IEEE Journal of
