We suggest a new approach to optimize the learning of sparse features under the constraints of explicit transformation symmetries imposed on the set of feature vectors. Given a set...
Abstract. Reverse-convex programming (RCP) concerns global optimization of a specific class of non-convex optimization problems. We show that a recently proposed model for sparse ...
The hierarchical non-negative matrix factorization (HNMF) is a multilayer generative network for decomposing strictly positive data into strictly positive activations and base vect...

Sparse representation theory has been increasingly used in the fields of signal processing and machine learning. The standard sparse models are not invariant to spatial transform...
In this paper, we propose a novel supervised hierarchical sparse coding model based on local image descriptors for classification tasks. The supervised dictionary training is perf...
