Since orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) is an important part of signal
processing and therefore crucial to the image processing aspect of
dictionary learning, I am currently focusing on optimizing the OMP code
and making sure it is stable. OMP is a forward method like least-angle
regression, so it is natural …
I am happy to announce that the Sparse PCA code has been reviewed and
merged into the main scikits.learn repository.
You can use it if you install the bleeding edge scikits.learn git
version, by first downloading the source code as explained in the
user’s guide, and then …

One of the simplest, and yet most heavily constrained form of matrix
factorization, is vector quantization (VQ). Heavily used in image/video
compression, the VQ problem is a …
