In this paper, we examine the application of manifold learning to the clustering problem. The method used is Locality Preserving Projections (LPP), which is chosen because of its computational efficiency. A detailed derivation of the method is presented, as well as the theoretical justi- fication behind it. Experiments performed on CMU's PIE database show that the projections created by LPP yield better clustering results than those obtained by k-means alone.
Index Terms:
clustering, ISOMAP, LPP, LLE, manifold learning, Laplacian, Eigenmap, k-means
