Poisson Subspace Clustering: Focusing on the Essentials in Count Data

Count data represented as a matrix of non-negative integer values, such as contingency tables, are prevalent across diverse domains. When clustering such data sets, specific methods are required, as generic algorithms often fail to consider their unique distributional properties, leading to unreliable outputs. An effective strategy is to use well-established statistical models such as the Poisson and negative binomial distributions. We present 3CPO, a clustering algorithm based on statistically solid modeling of count data. In addition to the cluster labels, it identifies a subset of relevant columns, enhancing the interpretability of the results. We propose a simple iterative algorithm t...
