Transformed K-means Clustering

Abstract

In this work we propose a clustering framework based on the paradigm of transform learning. In simple terms the representation from transform learning is used for K-means clustering; however, the problem is not solved in such a na\"ive piecemeal fashion. The K-means clustering loss is embedded into the transform learning framework and the joint problem is solved using the alternating direction method of multipliers. Results on document clustering show that our proposed approach improves over the state-of-the-art.
