Being robust to the presence of outliers is crucial for applying clustering algorithms in practice. In the $\textit{robust $k$-Means}$ problem (i.e., $k$-Means with outliers), the goal is to remove $z$ outliers and minimize the $k$-Means…

This paper examines the problem of locating outlier columns in a large, otherwise low-rank, matrix. We propose a simple two-step adaptive sensing and inference approach and establish theoretical guarantees for its performance; our results…
A multivariate dataset consists of $n$ cases in $d$ dimensions, and is often stored in an $n$ by $d$ data matrix. It is well-known that real data may contain outliers. Depending on the situation, outliers may be (a) undesirable errors which…
Many computer vision tasks involve processing large amounts of data contaminated by outliers, which need to be detected and rejected. While outlier detection methods based on robust statistics have existed for decades, only recently have…
Notwithstanding the popularity of conventional clustering algorithms such as K-means and probabilistic clustering, their clustering results are sensitive to the presence of outliers in the data. Even a few outliers can compromise the…
