Metric embedding is a powerful tool used extensively in mathematics and computer science. We devise a new method of using metric embeddings recursively, which turns out to be particularly effective in $\ell_p$ spaces, $p>2$, yielding…

Efficient indexing and searching of high dimensional data has been an area of active research due to the growing exploitation of high dimensional data and the vulnerability of traditional search methods to the curse of dimensionality. This…

A new depth-based clustering procedure for directional data is proposed. Such method is fully non-parametric and has the advantages to be flexible and applicable even in high dimensions when a suitable notion of depth is adopted. The…

Large collections of high-dimensional data have become nearly ubiquitous across many academic fields and application domains, ranging from biology to the humanities. Since working directly with high-dimensional data poses challenges, the…

Graph embedding provides a feasible methodology to conduct pattern classification for graph-structured data by mapping each data into the vectorial space. Various pioneering works are essentially coding method that concentrates on a…

A novel nonparametric clustering algorithm is proposed using the interpoint distances between the members of the data to reveal the inherent clustering structure existing in the given set of data, where we apply the classical nonparametric…

Unsupervised approaches to learning in neural networks are of substantial interest for furthering artificial intelligence, both because they would enable the training of networks without the need for large numbers of expensive annotations,…

This paper introduces {\em fusion subspace clustering}, a novel method to learn low-dimensional structures that approximate large scale yet highly incomplete data. The main idea is to assign each datum to a subspace of its own, and minimize…

Some examples and basic properties of ultrametric spaces are briefly discussed.

In this paper, we propose a unified framework for sampling, clustering and embedding data points in semi-metric spaces. For a set of data points $\Omega=\{x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_n\}$ in a semi-metric space, we consider a complete graph with…

Euclidean embeddings of data are fundamentally limited in their ability to capture latent semantic structures, which need not conform to Euclidean spatial assumptions. Here we consider an alternative, which embeds data as discrete…

Data clustering, the task of grouping observations according to their similarity, is a key component of unsupervised learning -- with real world applications in diverse fields such as biology, medicine, and social science. Often in these…

Data analysis and data mining are concerned with unsupervised pattern finding and structure determination in data sets. "Structure" can be understood as symmetry and a range of symmetries are expressed by hierarchy. Such symmetries directly…

Analysis and processing of data is a vital part of our modern society and requires vast amounts of computational resources. To reduce the computational burden, compressing and approximating data has become a central topic. We consider the…

The concept of depth has proved very important for multivariate and functional data analysis, as it essentially acts as a surrogate for the notion a ranking of observations which is absent in more than one dimension. Motivated by the rapid…

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…

Many approaches in the field of machine learning and data analysis rely on the assumption that the observed data lies on lower-dimensional manifolds. This assumption has been verified empirically for many real data sets. To make use of this…

In this paper we show that in systems where the probability distribution of the the overlap is non trivial in the infinity volume limit, the property of ultrametricity can be proved in general starting from two very simple and natural…

Modern inference and learning often hinge on identifying low-dimensional structures that approximate large scale data. Subspace clustering achieves this through a union of linear subspaces. However, in contemporary applications data is…

For a given metric measure space $(X,d,\mu)$ we consider finite samples of points, calculate the matrix of distances between them and then reconstruct the points in some finite-dimensional space using the multidimensional scaling (MDS)…
