Robust Subspace Learning: Robust PCA, Robust Subspace Tracking, and Robust Subspace Recovery
PCA is one of the most widely used dimension reduction techniques. A related
easier problem is "subspace learning" or "subspace estimation". Given
relatively clean data, both are easily solved via singular value decomposition
(SVD). The problem of subspace learning or PCA in the presence of outliers is
called robust subspace learning or robust PCA (RPCA). For long data sequences,
if one tries to use a single lower dimensional subspace to represent the data,
the required subspace dimension may end up being quite large. For such data, a
better model is to assume that it lies in a low-dimensional subspace that can
change over time, albeit gradually. The problem of tracking such data (and the
subspaces) while being robust to outliers is called robust subspace tracking
(RST). This article provides a magazine-style overview of the entire field of
robust subspace learning and tracking. In particular solutions for three
problems are discussed in detail: RPCA via sparse+low-rank matrix decomposition
(S+LR), RST via S+LR, and "robust subspace recovery (RSR)". RSR assumes that an
entire data vector is either an outlier or an inlier. The S+LR formulation
instead assumes that outliers occur on only a few data vector indices and hence
are well modeled as sparse corruptions.Comment: To appear, IEEE Signal Processing Magazine, July 201
Review of Face Detection Systems Based Artificial Neural Networks Algorithms
Face detection is one of the most relevant applications of image processing
and biometric systems. Artificial neural networks (ANN) have been used in the
field of image processing and pattern recognition. There is lack of literature
surveys which give overview about the studies and researches related to the
using of ANN in face detection. Therefore, this research includes a general
review of face detection studies and systems which based on different ANN
approaches and algorithms. The strengths and limitations of these literature
studies and systems were included also.Comment: 16 pages, 12 figures, 1 table, IJMA Journa
A Nonconvex Projection Method for Robust PCA
Robust principal component analysis (RPCA) is a well-studied problem with the
goal of decomposing a matrix into the sum of low-rank and sparse components. In
this paper, we propose a nonconvex feasibility reformulation of RPCA problem
and apply an alternating projection method to solve it. To the best of our
knowledge, we are the first to propose a method that solves RPCA problem
without considering any objective function, convex relaxation, or surrogate
convex constraints. We demonstrate through extensive numerical experiments on a
variety of applications, including shadow removal, background estimation, face
detection, and galaxy evolution, that our approach matches and often
significantly outperforms current state-of-the-art in various ways.Comment: In the proceedings of Thirty-Third AAAI Conference on Artificial
