In this paper we formulate a probabilistic model for class-specific discriminant subspace learning. The proposed model can naturally incorporate the multi-modal structure of the negative class, which is neglected by existing class-specific methods. Moreover, it can be directly used to define a class-specific probabilis…

Hashing techniques have been applied broadly in retrieval tasks due to their low storage requirements and high speed of processing. Many hashing methods based on a single view have been extensively studied for information retrieval. However, the representation capacity of a single view is insufficient and some discrimi…
Axis-aligned subspace clustering generally entails searching through enormous numbers of subspaces (feature combinations) and evaluation of cluster quality within each subspace.

Despite the fact that nonlinear subspace learning techniques (e.g. manifold learning) have successfully applied to data representation, there is still room for improvement in explainability (explicit mapping), generalization (out-of-samples), and cost-effectiveness (linearization). To this end, a novel linearized subsp…
