چکیده
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First of all, I would like to express my special appreciation to my advisor, Dr. Ming Dong, for his guide of my professional development and an inexhaustible source of ideas through my Ph.D.program at Wayne State University. During these years, he has spent tremendous time and effort with me discussing research, teaching me to write papers, and answering my questions. Without his kind assistance and advice, this dissertation would not haven been completed. William Grosky, for serving on my prospectus and dissertation committee. They gave me plenty of constructive suggestions and invaluable comments on this dissertation. Lijun Wang, for having insightful discussions with me. I would also like to express thanks to Sara Tipton in English Department of Wayne State University for her proofreading my dissertation. Last but not least, I am greatly indebted to my husband, Shuqing Zeng, and my little cute daughter, Christine, for their love and support during the five-year of my Ph.D. program. Thanks also go to my parents: my father, Getao Chen, and my mother, Yuxing Wang, for giving me life in the first place, for believing in me, for educating me, for unconditional support and encouragement to pursue my interests, even when the interests went beyond their boundaries of experience, language, field, and geography. I hope I have made them as well as my whole family proud.

A Projected Alternating Least square Approach for Computation of Nonnegative Matrix Factorization
Nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) is a common method in data mining that have been used in different applications as a dimension reduction, classification or clustering method. Methods in alternating least square (ALS) approach usually used to solve this non-convex minimization problem. At each step of ALS algorithms two convex least square problems should be solved, which causes high com...
متن کاملImmersive Visual Analytic of Earth Observation Data
New trends in exploration and visualization are highly demanded in dealing with the massive amount of collected Earth Observation (EO) data. In this work, we propose an immersive visual analytic of EO data utilizing Virtual Reality technology. Precisely, we introduce the visualization of large scale SAR images in an immersive 3D environment and also introduce an interactive learning algorithm f...
متن کاملClustering Student Discussion Messages on Online Forumby Visualization and Non-Negative Matrix Factorization
The use of online discussion forum can effectively engage students in their studies. As the number of messages posted on the forum is increasing, it is more difficult for instructors to read and respond to them in a prompt way. In this paper, we apply non-negative matrix factorization and visualization to clustering message data, in order to provide a summary view of messages that disclose thei...
متن کاملA new approach for building recommender system using non negative matrix factorization method
Nonnegative Matrix Factorization is a new approach to reduce data dimensions. In this method, by applying the nonnegativity of the matrix data, the matrix is decomposed into components that are more interrelated and divide the data into sections where the data in these sections have a specific relationship. In this paper, we use the nonnegative matrix factorization to decompose the user ratin...

Human-generated, typically unstructured, content has exploded due to the popularity and availability of Internet-based technologies: social networking sites, blogs and microblogs, shared documents, and ever increasing reliance on email, instant messaging, and SMS. These represent treasure troves of potentially useful data to reveal patterns and trends, to understand how people foster relationsh...
متن کاملUnsupervised Clustering of Hyperspectral Images of Brain Tissues by Hierarchical Non-negative Matrix Factorization
Hyperspectral images of high spatial and spectral resolutions are employed to perform the challenging task of brain tissue characterization and subsequent segmentation for visualization of in-vivo images. Each pixel is a high-dimensional spectrum. Working on the hypothesis of pure-pixels on account of high spectral resolution, we perform unsupervised clustering by hierarchical non-negative matr...
