Interpretable Image Clustering via Diffeomorphism-Aware K-Means
We design an interpretable clustering algorithm aware of the nonlinear structure of image manifolds. Our approach leverages the interpretability of $K$-means applied in the image space while addressing its clustering performance issues. Specifically, we develop a measure of similarity between images and centroids that encompasses a general class of deformations: diffeomorphisms, rendering the clustering invariant to them. Our work leverages the Thin-Plate Spline interpolation technique to efficiently learn diffeomorphisms best characterizing the image manifolds. Extensive numerical simulations show that our approach competes with state-of-the-art methods on various datasets.
