Unsupervised Deep Discriminant Analysis Based Clustering
share
This work presents an unsupervised deep discriminant analysis for clustering. The method is based on deep neural networks and aims to minimize the intra-cluster discrepancy and maximize the inter-cluster discrepancy in an unsupervised manner. The method is able to project the data into a nonlinear low-dimensional latent space with compact and distinct distribution patterns such that the data clusters can be effectively identified. We further provide an extension of the method such that available graph information can be effectively exploited to improve the clustering performance. Extensive numerical results on image and non-image data with or without graph information demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.
