Abstract
Sparse coding aims to model data vectors as sparse linear combinations of basis elements, but a majority of related studies are restricted to continuous data without spatial or temporal structure. A new model-based sparse coding (MSC) method is proposed to provide an effective and flexible framework for learning features from different data types: continuous, discrete, or categorical, and modeling different types of correlations: spatial or temporal. The specification of the sparsity level and how to adapt the estimation method to large-scale studies are also addressed. A fast EM algorithm is proposed for estimation, and its superior performance is demonstrated in simulation and multiple real applications such as image denoising, brain connectivity study, and spatial transcriptomic imaging.
