Abstract: What are the 'features' or 'parts' that our brains use to tell one thing from another? Several algorithms exist for learning object parts, and the development of the latest -- known as non-negative matrix factorization -- is now reported. This algorithm seems to decompose sets of faces into 'basis functions' that are different, and more part-like, than those found by conventional algorithms.
