چکیده

In this paper we present a mathematical model for archetypal analysis of data represented by means of intervals of real numbers. We extend the model for single-valued data proposed in the pioneering work of Cutler and Breiman on this topic. The core problem is a non-convex optimization one, which we solve by means of a sequential quadratic programming method. We show numerical experiments performed on both single-valued and interval data in order to validate the model.

Analysis of Extracting Prior BRDF from MODIS BRDF Data

Many previous studies have attempted to extract prior reflectance anisotropy knowledge from the historical MODIS Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF) product based on land cover or Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) data. In this study, the feasibility of the method is discussed based on MODIS data and archetypal BRDFs. The BRDF is simplified into six archetypal BRD...

A Note on Archetypal Analysis and the Approximation of Convex Hulls

We briefly review the basic ideas behind archetypal analysis for matrix factorization and discuss its behavior in approximating the convex hull of a data sample. We then ask how good such approximations can be and consider different cases. Understanding archetypal analysis as the problem of computing a convexity constrained low-rank approximation of the identity matrix provides estimates for ar...

Making Archetypal Analysis Practical

Archetypal analysis represents the members of a set of multivariate data as a convex combination of extremal points of the data. It allows for dimensionality reduction and clustering and is particularly useful whenever the data are superpositions of basic entities. However, since its computation costs grow quadratically with the number of data points, the original algorithm hardly applies to mo...

Weighted and robust archetypal analysis

Archetypal analysis represents observations in a multivariate data set as convex combinations of a few extremal points lying on the boundary of the convex hull. Data points which vary from the majority have great influence on the solution; in fact one outlier can break down the archetype solution. This paper adapts the original algorithm to be a robust M-estimator and presents an iteratively re...

Archetypal Analysis of Cellular Flame Data

The application of archetypal analysis to high-dimensional data arising from video-taped images is presented. A hybrid principal components/archetypes technique has been developed to overcome the difficulties of applying archetypes to data sets with points living in a space of dimension higher than about 500. The advantages of the method lie in the creation of patterns typical of the set as a w...
