Optimal Manifold Representation of Data: An Information Theoretic Approach
We introduce an information theoretic method for nonparametric, nonlinear dimensionality reduction, based on the infinite cluster limit of rate distortion theory. By constraining...

Information Theoretic Clustering of Sparse Co-Occurrence Data
A novel approach to clustering co-occurrence data poses it as an optimization problem in information theory which minimizes the resulting loss in mutual information. A divisive cl...

Finding Median Partitions Using Information-Theoretical-Based Genetic Algorithms
: In a database with categorical attributes, each attribute defines a partition whose classes can be regarded as natural clusters of rows. In this paper we focus on finding a parti...

Finding Metric Structure in Information Theoretic Clustering
We study the problem of clustering discrete probability distributions with respect to the Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence. This problem arises naturally in many applications. Our...
