Infrared target tracking plays an important role in both civil and military fields. The main challenges in designing a robust and high-precision tracker for infrared sequences include overlap, occlusion and appearance change. To this end, this paper proposes an infrared target tracker based on proximal robust principal component analysis method. Firstly, the observation matrix is decomposed into a sparse occlusion matrix and a low-rank target matrix, and the constraint optimization is carried out with an approaching proximal norm which is better than L1-norm. To solve this convex optimization problem, Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) is employed to estimate the variables alternately. Finally, the framework of particle filter with model update strategy is exploited to locate the target. Through a series of experiments on real infrared target sequences, the effectiveness and robustness of our algorithm are proved.

Principal component analysis (PCA) is recognised as a quintessential data analysis technique when it comes to describing linear relationships between the features of a dataset. However, the well-known sensitivity of PCA to non-Gaussian samples and/or outliers often makes it unreliable in practice. To this end, a robust formulation of PCA is derived based on the maximum correntropy criterion (MCC) so as to maximise the expected likelihood of Gaussian distributed reconstruction errors. In this way, the proposed solution reduces to a generalised power iteration, whereby: (i) robust estimates of the principal components are obtained even in the presence of outliers; (ii) the number of principal components need not be specified in advance; and (iii) the entire set of principal components can be obtained, unlike existing approaches. The advantages of the proposed maximum correntropy power iteration (MCPI) are demonstrated through an intuitive numerical example.
Principal Component Analysis (PCA) finds a linear mapping and maximizes the variance of the data which makes PCA sensitive to outliers and may cause wrong eigendirection. In this paper, we propose techniques to solve this problem; we use the data-centering method and reestimate the covariance matrix using robust statistic techniques such as median, robust scaling which is a booster to data-centering and Huber M-estimator which measures the presentation of outliers and reweight them with small values. The results on several real world data sets show that our proposed method handles outliers and gains better results than the original PCA and provides the same accuracy with lower computation cost than the Kernel PCA using the polynomial kernel in classification tasks.
Cryo-electron microscopy nowadays often requires the analysis of hundreds of thousands of 2D images as large as a few hundred pixels in each direction. Here we introduce an algorithm that efficiently and accurately performs principal component analysis (PCA) for a large set of two-dimensional images, and, for each image, the set of its uniform rotations in the plane and their reflections. For a dataset consisting of $n$ images of size $L times L$ pixels, the computational complexity of our algorithm is $O(nL^3 + L^4)$, while existing algorithms take $O(nL^4)$. The new algorithm computes the expansion coefficients of the images in a Fourier-Bessel basis efficiently using the non-uniform fast Fourier transform. We compare the accuracy and efficiency of the new algorithm with traditional PCA and existing algorithms for steerable PCA.
Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is a common multivariate statistical analysis method, and Probabilistic Principal Component Analysis (PPCA) is its probabilistic reformulation under the framework of Gaussian latent variable model. To improve the robustness of PPCA, it has been proposed to change the underlying Gaussian distributions to multivariate $t$-distributions. Based on the representation of $t$-distribution as a scale mixture of Gaussians, a hierarchical model is used for implementation. However, although the robust PPCA methods work reasonably well for some simulation studies and real data, the hierarchical model implemented does not yield the equivalent interpretation. In this paper, we present a set of equivalent relationships between those models, and discuss the performance of robust PPCA methods using different multivariate $t$-distributed structures through several simulation studies. In doing so, we clarify a current misrepresentation in the literature, and make connections between a set of hierarchical models for robust PPCA.
Traditional load analysis is facing challenges with the new electricity usage patterns due to demand response as well as increasing deployment of distributed generations, including photovoltaics (PV), electric vehicles (EV), and energy storage systems (ESS). At the transmission system, despite of irregular load behaviors at different areas, highly aggregated load shapes still share similar characteristics. Load clustering is to discover such intrinsic patterns and provide useful information to other load applications, such as load forecasting and load modeling. This paper proposes an efficient submodular load clustering method for transmission-level load areas. Robust principal component analysis (R-PCA) firstly decomposes the annual load profiles into low-rank components and sparse components to extract key features. A novel submodular cluster center selection technique is then applied to determine the optimal cluster centers through constructed similarity graph. Following the selection results, load areas are efficiently assigned to different clusters for further load analysis and applications. Numerical results obtained from PJM load demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
