A recent theoretical analysis shows the equivalence between non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) and spectral clustering based approach to subspace clustering. As NMF and many of its variants are essentially linear, we introduce a nonlinear NMF with explicit orthogonality and derive general kernel-based orthogonal m…

Semi-supervised clustering is the task of clustering data points into clusters where only a fraction of the points are labelled. The true number of clusters in the data is often unknown and most models require this parameter as an input. Dirichlet process mixture models are appealing as they can infer the number of clu…
Overlapping clustering problem is an important learning issue in which clusters are not mutually exclusive and each object may belongs simultaneously to several clusters. This paper presents a kernel based method that produces overlapping clusters on a high feature space using mercer kernel techniques to improve separa…

This paper studies the problem of learning clusters which are consistently present in different (continuously valued) representations of observed data. Our setup differs slightly from the standard approach of (co-) clustering as we use the fact that some form of `labeling' becomes available in this setup: a cluster is …

Subspace sparse coding (SSC) algorithms have proven to be beneficial to clustering problems.

However, most of the research in this area is mainly focused on enhancing the sparse coding part of the p…
The effectiveness of deep neural architectures has been widely supported in terms of both experimental and foundational principles. There is also clear evidence that the activation function (e.g. the rectifier and the LSTM units) plays a crucial role in the complexity of learning. Based on this remark, this paper discu…
Due to the complexity of cancer, clustering algorithms have been used to disentangle the observed heterogeneity and identify cancer subtypes that can be treated specifically.

Kernel-based online learning has often shown state-of-the-art performance for many online learning tasks.

In this work, we study the problem …
This paper advocates Riemannian multi-manifold modeling in the context of network-wide non-stationary time-series analysis.
