Abstract

Grouping around affine subspaces and other types of manifolds is receiving a lot of attention in the literature due to its interest in several fields of application. Allowing for different dimensions is needed in many applications. This work extends the TCLUST methodology to deal with the problem of grouping data around different dimensional linear subspaces in the presence of noise. Two ways of considering error terms in the orthogonal of the linear subspaces are considered.
