Subspace clustering (SC) aims to cluster data lying in a union of low-dimensional subspaces. Usually, SC learns an affinity matrix and then performs spectral clustering. Both steps suffer from high time and space complexity, which leads to…

Convex regularizers are often used for sparse learning. They are easy to optimize, but can lead to inferior prediction performance. The difference of $\ell_1$ and $\ell_2$ ($\ell_{1-2}$) regularizer has been recently proposed as a nonconvex…

State-of-the-art subspace clustering methods are based on expressing each data point as a linear combination of other data points while regularizing the matrix of coefficients with $\ell_1$, $\ell_2$ or nuclear norms. $\ell_1$…

Kernel methods are applied to many problems in pattern recognition, including subspace clustering (SC). That way, nonlinear problems in the input data space become linear in mapped high-dimensional feature space. Thereby, computationally…

We consider the decomposition of a signal over an overcomplete set of vectors. Minimization of the $\ell^1$-norm of the coefficient vector can often retrieve the sparsest solution (so-called "$\ell^1/\ell^0$-equivalence"), a generally…

Many clustering problems in computer vision and other contexts are also classification problems, where each cluster shares a meaningful label. Subspace clustering algorithms in particular are often applied to problems that fit this…

The minimum sum-of-squares clustering (MSSC), or k-means type clustering, is traditionally considered an unsupervised learning task. In recent years, the use of background knowledge to improve the cluster quality and promote…

Spectral clustering (SC) and graph-based semi-supervised learning (SSL) algorithms are sensitive to how graphs are constructed from data. In particular if the data has proximal and unbalanced clusters these algorithms can lead to poor…

We propose a penalized likelihood framework for estimating multiple precision matrices from different classes. Most existing methods either incorporate no information on relationships between the precision matrices, or require this…

Subspace clustering is the unsupervised grouping of points lying near a union of low-dimensional linear subspaces. Algorithms based directly on geometric properties of such data tend to either provide poor empirical performance, lack…

We study graph clustering in the Stochastic Block Model (SBM) in the presence of both large clusters and small, unrecoverable clusters. Previous convex relaxation approaches achieving exact recovery do not allow any small clusters of size…

Clustering algorithms are fundamental tools across many fields, with density-based methods offering particular advantages in identifying arbitrarily shaped clusters and handling noise. However, their effectiveness is often limited by the…

We consider the problem of minimizing an objective function that is the sum of a convex function and a group sparsity-inducing regularizer. Problems that integrate such regularizers arise in modern machine learning applications, often for…

Spectral clustering is a fundamental technique in the field of data mining and information processing. Most existing spectral clustering algorithms integrate dimensionality reduction into the clustering process assisted by manifold learning…

In this paper, based on a successively accuracy-increasing approximation of the $\ell_0$ norm, we propose a new algorithm for recovery of sparse vectors from underdetermined measurements. The approximations are realized with a certain class…

Spectral clustering became a popular choice for data clustering for its ability of uncovering clusters of different shapes. However, it is not always preferable over other clustering methods due to its computational demands. One of the…

Over the past decade, the celebrated sparse representation model has achieved impressive results in various signal and image processing tasks. A convolutional version of this model, termed convolutional sparse coding (CSC), has been…

Subspace clustering methods based on expressing each data point as a linear combination of all other points in a dataset are popular unsupervised learning techniques. However, existing methods incur high computational complexity on…

In this paper we present deterministic conditions for success of sparse subspace clustering (SSC) under missing data, when data is assumed to come from a Union of Subspaces (UoS) model. We consider two algorithms, which are variants of SSC…

In this paper, we present a deep extension of Sparse Subspace Clustering, termed Deep Sparse Subspace Clustering (DSSC). Regularized by the unit sphere distribution assumption for the learned deep features, DSSC can infer a new data…
