Abstract
Low-rank representation (LRR) and its variants have been proved to be powerful tools for handling subspace segmentation problems. In this paper, we propose a new LRR-related algorithm, termed self-representation constrained low-rank presentation (SRLRR). SRLRR contains a self-representation constraint which is used to compel the obtained coefficient matrices can be reconstructed by themselves. An optimization algorithm for solving SRLRR problem is also proposed. Moreover, we present an alternative formulation of SRLRR so that SRLRR can be regarded as a kind of Laplacian regularized LRR. Consequently, the relationships and comparisons between SRLRR and some existing Laplacian regularized LRR-related algorithms have been discussed. Finally, subspace segmentation experiments conducted on both synthetic and real databases show that SRLRR dominates the related algorithms.

According to the descriptions in [30], this constraint can make \({\mathbf {Z}}\) be more powerful to reveal the intrinsic structures of data sets.
Namely, \({\mathbf {L}}={\mathbf {D}}-{\mathbf {W}}\), where \({\mathbf {W}}\) is an affinity matrix constructed by using KNN, \({\mathbf {D}}\) is a diagonal matrix with \({\mathbf {D}}_{ii}=\sum _{j}{\mathbf {W}}_{ij}\).
\({\mathbf {Z}}\) is a locally reconstruction coefficient matrix.
The Matlab code of NSLLRR can be found on http://www.cis.pku.edu.cn/faculty/vision/zlin/sparse_graph_LRR.m. Because NSLLRR is the extension of GLRR and SMR, we do not use GLRR and SMR for comparisons.
The segmentation accuracy is defined as the ratio between number of correct classified points to total number of points.
It also contains a sequence of 5 motions which is called “dancing”. We neglect this sub-database in our experiments.
The choices of PCA dimension is followed the suggestion in [3].
Segmentation error = 1 − segmentation accuracy.
