OCMP5328 - Advanced Machine Learning 
Assignment 1 
This assignment is to be completed in groups of 2 to 3 students. It is worth 25% of your 
total mark. 
1 Objective 
The objective of this assignment is to implement Non-negative Matrix Factorization 
(NMF) algorithms and analyze the robustness of NMF algorithms when the dataset is 
contaminated by large magnitude noise or corruption. More specifically, you should 
implement at least two NMF algorithms and compare their robustness. 
2 Instructions 
2.1 Dataset description 
In this assignment, you need to apply NMF algorithms on two real-world face image 
datasets: (1) ORL dataset
1; (2) Extended YaleB dataset
2
. 
• ORL dataset: it contains 400 images of 40 distinct subjects (i.e., 10 images per 
subject). For some subjects, the images were taken at different times, varying the 
lighting, facial expressions, and facial details (glasses / no glasses). All the images 
were taken against a dark homogeneous background with the subjects in an 
upright, frontal position. All images are cropped and resized to 92×112 pixels. 
• Extended YaleB dataset: it contains 2414 images of 38 subjects under 9 poses 
and 64 illumination conditions. All images are manually aligned, cropped, and 
then resized to 168×192 pixels.

10,12, and 14 pixels. 
Note: we provide a tutorial for this assignment, which contains example code for 
loading a dataset to numpy array. Please find more details in assignment1.ipynb. 
2.2 Assignment tasks 
1. You need to implement at least two Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) 
algorithms: 
• You should implement at least two NMF algorithms with at least one not 
taught in this course (e.g., L1-Norm Based NMF, Hypersurface Cost Based 
NMF, L1-Norm Regularized Robust NMF, and L2,1-Norm Based NMF). 
• For each algorithm, you need to describe the definition of cost function as 
well as the optimization methods used in your implementation. 
2. You need to analyze the robustness of each algorithm on two datasets: 
• You are allowed to design your own data pre-processing method (if 
necessary). 
• You need to use a block-occlusion noise similar to those shown in Figure 1. 
The noise is generated by setting the pixel values to be 255 in the block. You 
should design your own value for b (not necessary to be 10,12 or 14). You 
are also encouraged to design your own noise other than the block-occlusion 
noise. 
• You need to demonstrate each type of noise used in your experiment (show 
the original image as well as the image contaminated by noise). 
• You should carefully choose the NMF algorithms and design experiment 
settings to clearly show the different robustness of the algorithms you have 
implemented. 
3. You are only allowed to use the python standard library, numpy and scipy (if 
necessary) to implement NMF algorithms. 3    
2.3 Programming and External Libraries Python
This assignment is required to be finished by 3. When you implement NMF 
algorithms, you are not allowed to use external libraries which contains NMF 
implementations, such as scikit-learn, and Nimfa (i.e., you have to implement the NMF 
algorithms by yourself). You are allowed to use scikit-learn for evaluation only (please 
find more details in assignment1.ipynb). If you have any ambiguity whether you can 
use a particular library or a function, please post on canvas under the Assignment 1 
thread. 
2.4 Evaluate metrics 
To compare the performance and robustness of different NMF algorithms, we provide 
three evaluation metrics: (1) Root Means Square Errors; (2) Average Accuracy; (3) 
Normalized Mutual Information. For all experiments, you need to use at least two 
metrics, i.e., Root Means Square Errors and Average Accuracy. 
• Root Means Square Errors (RMSE): let X denote the contaminated dataset (by 
adding noise), and      ̂ denote the clean dataset. Let   and   denote the 
factorization results on      ̂ , the Root Means Square Errors then can be defined 
as follows: 
(1) 
• Average Accuracy: You need to perform some clustering algorithms (i.e., Kmeans)
with num clusters equal to num classes. Each example is assigned with 
the cluster label (please find more details in assignment1.ipynb). Lastly, you can 
evaluate the accuracy of predictions Ypred as follows: 
 (3) 
where I(·,·) is mutual information and H(·) is entropy. 
Note: we expect you to have a rigorous performance evaluation. To provide an estimate 
of the performance of the algorithms in the report, you can repeat multiple times (e.g., 
5 times) for each experiment by randomly sampling 90% data from the whole dataset 
and average the metrics on different subset. You are also required to report the standard 
deviations. 4    
3 Report 
The report should be organized like research papers, and should contain the following 
sections: 
• In abstract, you should briefly introduce the topic of this assignment and describe 
the organization of your report. 
• In introduction, you should first introduce the main idea of NMF as well as its 
applications. You should then give an overview of the methods you want to use. 
• In related work, you are expected to review the main idea of related NMF 
algorithms (including their advantages and disadvantages). 
• In methods, you should describe the details of your method (including the 
definition of cost functions as well as optimization steps). You should also 
describe your choices of noise and you are encouraged to explain the robustness 
of each algorithm from theoretical view. 
• In experiment, firstly, you should introduce the experimental setup (e.g., datasets, 
algorithms, and noise used in your experiment for comparison). 
Second, you should show the experimental results and give some comments. 
• In conclusion, you should summarize your results and discuss your insights for 
future work. 
• In reference, you should list all references cited in your report and formatted all 
references in a consistent way. 
The layout of the report: 
• Font: Times New Roman; Title: font size 14; Body: font size 12 
• Length: Ideally 10 to 15 pages - maximum 20 pages 
Note: You are encouraged to use LaTeX. Optionally, a MS-Word template is provided. 
4 Submissions 
The submission contains two parts: source code and report. Detailed instructions are 
as follows: 
1. Go to Canvas and upload the following files. 5    
1. report (a pdf file): the report should include each member’s details 
(student id and name). 
2. code (a folder) as zip file 
i. algorithm (a sub-folder): your code could be multiple files inside 
algorithm sub-folder. 
ii. data (an empty sub-folder): although two datasets should be inside the 
data folder, please do not include them in the zip file. We will copy two 
datasets to the data folder when we test the code. 
2. Only one student needs to submit the report as pdf file and code as zip file which 
must be named as student ID numbers of all group members separated by 
underscores. 
E.g., “xxxxx_xxxxx_xxxxx_code.zip and xxxxx_xxxxx_xxxxx_report.pdf”. 
3. Your submission should include the report and the code. A plagiarism checker 
will be used. 
4. You need to clearly provide instructions on how to run your code in the appendix 
of the report. 
5. Indicate the contribution of each group member. 
6. A penalty of minus 1.25 (5%) marks per each day after due (email late 
submissions to TA and confirm late submission dates with TA). Maximum delay 
is 5 days, Assignments more than 5 days late will get 0. 
 
5 Plagiarism 
• Please read the University Policy on Academic Honesty carefully: 
http://sydney.edu.au/elearning/student/EI/academic_honesty.shtml 
• All cases of academic dishonesty and plagiarism will be investigated. 
• There is a new process and a centralised University system and database. 
• Three types of offences: 
1. Plagiarism – When you copy from another student, website or other 
source. This includes copying the whole assignment or only a part of it. 
2. Academic Dishonesty – When you make your work available to another 
student to copy (the whole assignment or a part of it). There are other 
examples of academic dishonesty. 6    
3. Misconduct - When you engage another person to complete your 
assignment (or a part of it), for payment or not. This is a very serious 
matter, and the Policy requires that your case is forwarded to the 
University Registrar for investigation. 
• The penalties are severe and include: 
1. A permanent record of academic dishonesty, plagiarism, and misconduct 
in the University database and on your student file. 
2. Mark deduction, ranging from 0 for the assignment to Fail for the course. 
3. Expulsion from the University and cancelling of your student visa. 
• When there is copying between students, note that both students are penalised – 
the student who copies and the student who makes his/her work available for 
copying. 
• It is noted that only 30% (including references) is acceptable. The high 
plagiarism will be reported to the school.
