In this paper, we address the problem of redundancy reduction of high-dimensional noisy signals that may contain anomaly (rare) vectors, which we wish to preserve. Since anomaly data vectors contribute weakly to the ℓ2 -norm of the signal as compared to the noise, ℓ2 -based criteria are unsatisfactory for obtaining a good representation of these vectors. As a remedy, a new approach, named Min-Max-SYD (MX-SVD) was recently proposed for signal-subspace estimation by attempting to minimize the maximum of data-residual ℓ2 -norms, denoted as ℓ2,∞ and designed to represent well both abundant and anomaly measurements. However, the MX-SVD algorithm is greedy and only approximately minimizes the proposed ℓ2,∞-norm of the residuals. In this paper we develop an optimal algorithm for the minization of the ℓ2 ,∞ -norm of data misrepresentation residuals, which we call Maximum Orthogonal complements Optimal Subspace Estimation (MOOSE). The optimization is performed via a natural conjugate gradient learning approach carried out on the set of n dimensional subspaces in IRm, m > n, which is a Grassmann manifold. The results of applying MOOSE, MX-SVD, and ℓ2- based approaches are demonstrated both on simulated and real hyperspectral data. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
