Sparse Non-Negative Matrix Factorization for Mesh Segmentation

Sparse Non-Negative Matrix Factorization for Mesh Segmentation

We present a method for 3D mesh segmentation based on sparse non-negative matrix factorization (NMF). Image analysis techniques based on NMF have been shown to decompose images into semantically meaningful local features. Since the features and coefficients are represented in terms of non-negative values, the features contribute to the resulting images in an intuitive, additive fashion. Like sp...

A Method for Parallel Non-negative Sparse Large Matrix Factorization

This paper proposes parallel methods of non-negative sparse large matrix factorization. The described methods are tested and compared on large matrices processing.

Group Sparse Non-negative Matrix Factorization for Multi-Manifold Learning

Many observable data sets such as images, videos and speech can be modeled by a mixture of manifolds which are the result of multiple factors (latent variables). In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm to learn multiple linear manifolds for face recognition, called Group Sparse Non-negative Matrix Factorization (GSNMF). Via the group sparsity constraint imposed on the column vectors of the ...

Iterative Weighted Non-smooth Non-negative Matrix Factorization for Face Recognition

Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) is a part-based image representation method. It comes from the intuitive idea that entire face image can be constructed by combining several parts. In this paper, we propose a framework for face recognition by finding localized, part-based representations, denoted “Iterative weighted non-smooth non-negative matrix factorization” (IWNS-NMF). A new cost fun...
