The paper introduces a novel framework for recovering cluster information from affinity matrices, which is formulated as a projection approximation problem with an entry-wise penalty function. The authors investigate three distinct penalty functions tailored to different scenarios (bounded, positive, and sparse) and propose a direct optimization approach on the Stiefel manifold using the Cayley transformation and Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM). A theoretical analysis establishes the convergence properties of ADMM, demonstrating that the convergence point satisfies the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) conditions. Experimental results on synthetic and real-world datasets show that the proposed approach outperforms state-of-the-art methods in clustering performance.

This paper creates a new way to find hidden patterns in data using a special kind of math problem. The authors are trying to solve this problem by taking two steps: first, they make a formula to connect the dots between clusters; second, they use a special computer algorithm to find the answer. They tested their method on fake and real data and found that it worked better than other methods.
