Abstract

This paper proposes a fuzzy partitioning subspace clustering algorithm that minimizes a variant of the FCM cost function with a weighted Euclidean distance and a penalty term. To this aim it considers the framework of proximal optimization. It establishes the expression of the proximal operator for the considered cost function and derives PFSCM, an algorithm combining proximal descent and alternate optimization. Experiments show the relevance of the proposed approach.
