Beyond union of subspaces: Subspace pursuit on Grassmann manifold for data representation

Discovering the underlying structure of a high-dimensional signal or big data has always been a challenging topic, and has become harder to tackle especially when the observations are exposed to arbitrary sparse perturbations. Here in this paper, built on the model of a union of subspaces (UoS) with sparse outliers and inspired by a basis pursuit strategy, we exploit the fundamental structure of a Grassmann manifold, and propose a new technique of pursuing the subspaces systematically by solving a non-convex optimization problem using the alternating direction method of multipliers. This problem as noted is further complicated by non-convex constraints on the Grassmann manifold, as well as the bilinearity in the penalty caused by the subspace bases and coefficients. Nevertheless, numerical experiments verify that the proposed algorithm, which provides elegant solutions to the sub-problems in each step, is able to de-couple the subspaces and pursue each of them under time-efficient parallel computation.

Robust Group Subspace Recovery: A New Approach for Multi-Modality Data Fusion

Robust Subspace Recovery (RoSuRe) algorithm was recently introduced as a principled and numerically efficient algorithm that unfolds underlying Unions of Subspaces (UoS) structure, present in the data. The union of Subspaces (UoS) is capable of identifying more complex trends in data sets than simple linear models. In this work, we build on and extend RoSuRe to prospect the structure of different data modalities individually. We propose a novel multi-modal data fusion approach based on group sparsity which we refer to as Robust Group Subspace Recovery (RoGSuRe). Relying on a bi-sparsity pursuit paradigm and non-smooth optimization techniques, the introduced framework learns a new joint representation of the time series from different data modalities, respecting an underlying UoS model. We subsequently integrate the obtained structures to form a unified subspace structure. The proposed approach exploits the structural dependencies between the different modalities data to cluster the associated target objects. The resulting fusion of the unlabeled sensors’ data from experiments on audio and magnetic data has shown that our method is competitive with other state of the art subspace clustering methods. The resulting UoS structure is employed to classify newly observed data points, highlighting the abstraction capacity of the proposed method.

Anomaly Detection in Moving-Camera Video Sequences Using Principal Subspace Analysis

This study presents a family of algorithms based on sparse decompositions that detect anomalies in video sequences obtained from slow moving cameras. These algorithms start by computing the union of subspaces that best represents all the frames from a reference (anomaly free) video as a low-rank projection plus a sparse residue. Then, they perform a low-rank representation of a target (possibly anomalous) video by taking advantage of both the union of subspaces and the sparse residue computed from the reference video. Such algorithms provide good detection results while at the same time obviating the need for previous video synchronization. However, this is obtained at the cost of a large computational complexity, which hinders their applicability. Another contribution of this paper approaches this problem by using intrinsic properties of the obtained data representation in order to restrict the search space to the most relevant subspaces, providing computational complexity gains of up to two orders of magnitude. The developed algorithms are shown to cope well with videos acquired in challenging scenarios, as verified by the analysis of 59 videos from the VDAO database that comprises videos with abandoned objects in a cluttered industrial scenario.

Latent code-based fusion: A Volterra neural network approach

We propose a deep structure encoder using Volterra Neural Networks (VNNs) to seek a latent representation of multi-modal data whose features are jointly captured by a union of subspaces. The so-called self-representation embedding of the latent codes leads to a simplified fusion which is driven by a similarly constructed decoding. The Volterra Filter architecture achieved reduction in parameter complexity is primarily due to controlled non-linearities being introduced by the higher-order convolutions in lieu of generalized activation functions. Experimental results on two different datasets have shown a significant improvement in the clustering performance for VNNs auto-encoder over conventional Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) auto-encoder. In addition, we also show that the proposed approach demonstrates a much-improved sample complexity over CNN-based auto-encoder with a robust classification performance.

Bi-sparsity pursuit: A paradigm for robust subspace recovery

The success of sparse models in computer vision and machine learning is due to the fact that, high dimensional data is distributed in a union of low dimensional subspaces in many real-world applications. The underlying structure may, however, be adversely affected by sparse errors. In this paper, we propose a bi-sparse model as a framework to analyze this problem, and provide a novel algorithm to recover the union of subspaces in the presence of sparse corruptions. We further show the effectiveness of our method by experiments on real-world vision data.

BI-sparsity pursuit for robust subspace recovery

Here, the success of sparse models in computer vision and machine learning in many real-world applications, may be attributed in large part, to the fact that many high dimensional data are distributed in a union of low dimensional subspaces. The underlying structure may, however, be adversely affected by sparse errors, thus inducing additional complexity in recovering it. In this paper, we propose a bi-sparse model as a framework to investigate and analyze this problem, and provide as a result , a novel algorithm to recover the union of subspaces in presence of sparse corruptions. We additionally demonstrate the effectiveness of our method by experiments on real-world vision data.

Sparsity and Nullity: Paradigms for Analysis Dictionary Learning

Sparse models in dictionary learning have been successfully applied in a wide variety of machine learning and computer vision problems, and as a result have recently attracted increased research interest. Another interesting related problem based on linear equality constraints, namely the sparse null space (SNS) problem, first appeared in 1986 and has since inspired results on sparse basis pursuit. In this work, we investigate the relation between the SNS problem and the analysis dictionary learning (ADL) problem, and show that the SNS problem plays a central role, and may be utilized to solve dictionary learning problems. Moreover, we propose an efficient algorithm of sparse null space basis pursuit (SNS-BP) and extend it to a solution of ADL. Lastly, experimental results on numerical synthetic data and real-world data are further presented to validate the performance of our method.

An adaptive least-squares global sensitivity method and application to a plasma-coupled combustion prediction with parametric correlation

We introduce an efficient non-intrusive surrogate-based methodology for global sensitivity analysis and uncertainty quantification. Modified covariance-based sensitivity indices (mCov-SI) are defined for outputs that reflect correlated effects. The overall approach is applied to simulations of a complex plasma-coupled combustion system with disparate uncertain parameters in sub-models for chemical kinetics and a laser-induced breakdown ignition seed. The surrogate is based on an Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) expansion, such as widely used in statistics, with orthogonal polynomials representing the ANOVA subspaces and a polynomial dimensional decomposition (PDD) representing its multi-dimensional components. The coefficients of the PDD expansion are obtained using a least-squares regression, which both avoids the direct computation of high-dimensional integrals and affords an attractive flexibility in choosing sampling points. This facilitates importance sampling using a Bayesian calibrated posterior distribution, which is fast and thus particularly advantageous in common practical cases, such as our large-scale demonstration, for which the asymptotic convergence properties of polynomial expansions cannot be realized due to computation expense. Effort, instead, is focused on efficient finite-resolution sampling. Standard covariance-based sensitivity indices (Cov-SI) are employed to account for correlation of the uncertain parameters. Magnitude of Cov-SI is unfortunately unbounded, which can produce extremely large indices that limit their utility. Alternatively, mCov-SI are then proposed in order to bound this magnitude $\in$ [0, 1]. The polynomial expansion is coupled with an adaptive ANOVA strategy to provide an accurate surrogate as the union of several low-dimensional spaces, avoiding the typical computational cost of a high-dimensional expansion. It is also adaptively simplified according to the relative contribution of the different polynomials to the total variance. Finally, the approach is demonstrated for a laser-induced turbulent combustion simulation model, which includes parameters with correlated effects.
