Matrix minimization techniques that employ the nuclear norm have gained recognition for their applicability in tasks like image inpainting, clustering, classification, and reconstruction. However, they come with inherent biases and computational burdens, especially when used to relax the rank function, making them less effective and efficient in real-world scenarios. To address these challenges, our research focuses on generalized nonconvex rank regularization problems in robust matrix completion, low-rank representation, and robust matrix regression. We introduce innovative approaches for effective and efficient low-rank matrix learning, grounded in generalized nonconvex rank relaxations inspired by various substitutes for the ?0-norm relaxed functions. These relaxations allow us to more accurately capture low-rank structures. Our optimization strategy employs a nonconvex and multi-variable alternating direction method of multipliers, backed by rigorous theoretical analysis for complexity and *** algorithm iteratively updates blocks of variables, ensuring efficient convergence. Additionally, we incorporate the randomized singular value decomposition technique and/or other acceleration strategies to enhance the computational efficiency of our approach, particularly for large-scale constrained minimization problems. In conclusion, our experimental results across a variety of image vision-related application tasks unequivocally demonstrate the superiority of our proposed methodologies in terms of both efficacy and efficiency when compared to most other related learning methods.

We present a novel attention-based mechanism to learn enhanced point features for point cloud processing tasks, e.g., classification and segmentation. Unlike prior studies, which were trained to optimize the weights of a pre-selected set of attention points, our approach learns to locate the best attention points to maximize the performance of a specific task, e.g., point cloud classification. Importantly, we advocate the use of single attention point to facilitate semantic understanding in point feature learning. Specifically,we formulate a new and simple convolution, which combines convolutional features from an input point and its corresponding learned attention point(LAP). Our attention mechanism can be easily incorporated into state-of-the-art point cloud classification and segmentation networks. Extensive experiments on common benchmarks, such as Model Net40, Shape Net Part, and S3DIS, all demonstrate that our LAP-enabled networks consistently outperform the respective original networks, as well as other competitive alternatives, which employ multiple attention points, either pre-selected or learned under our LAP framework.

The naive Bayesian classifier(NBC) is a supervised machine learning algorithm having a simple model structure and good theoretical interpretability. However, the generalization performance of NBC is limited to a large extent by the assumption of attribute independence. To address this issue, this paper proposes a novel attribute grouping-based NBC(AG-NBC), which is a variant of the classical NBC trained with different attribute groups. AG-NBC first applies a novel effective objective function to automatically identify optimal dependent attribute groups(DAGs). Condition attributes in the same DAG are strongly dependent on the class attribute, whereas attributes in different DAGs are independent of one another. Then,for each DAG, a random vector functional link network with a SoftMax layer is trained to output posterior probabilities in the form of joint probability density estimation. The NBC is trained using the grouping attributes that correspond to the original condition attributes. Extensive experiments were conducted to validate the rationality, feasibility, and effectiveness of AG-NBC. Our findings showed that the attribute groups chosen for NBC can accurately represent attribute dependencies and reduce overlaps between different posterior probability densities. In addition, the comparative results with NBC, flexible NBC(FNBC), tree augmented Bayes network(TAN), gain ratio-based attribute weighted naive Bayes(GRAWNB), averaged one-dependence estimators(AODE), weighted AODE(WAODE), independent component analysis-based NBC(ICA-NBC), hidden naive Bayesian(HNB) classifier, and correlation-based feature weighting filter for naive Bayes(CFW) show that AG-NBC obtains statistically better testing accuracies, higher area under the receiver operating characteristic curves(AUCs), and fewer probability mean square errors(PMSEs) than other Bayesian classifiers. The experimental results demonstrate that AG-NBC is a valid and efficient approach for alleviating the attribute i

Partial-label learning(PLL) is a typical problem of weakly supervised learning, where each training instance is annotated with a set of candidate labels. Self-training PLL models achieve state-of-the-art performance but suffer from error accumulation problems caused by mistakenly disambiguated instances. Although co-training can alleviate this issue by training two networks simultaneously and allowing them to interact with each other, most existing co-training methods train two structurally identical networks with the same task, i.e., are symmetric, rendering it insufficient for them to correct each other due to their similar limitations. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an asymmetric dual-task co-training PLL model called AsyCo,which forces its two networks, i.e., a disambiguation network and an auxiliary network, to learn from different views explicitly by optimizing distinct tasks. Specifically, the disambiguation network is trained with a self-training PLL task to learn label confidence, while the auxiliary network is trained in a supervised learning paradigm to learn from the noisy pairwise similarity labels that are constructed according to the learned label confidence. Finally, the error accumulation problem is mitigated via information distillation and confidence refinement. Extensive experiments on both uniform and instance-dependent partially labeled datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of AsyCo.
