Laplacian Embedding (LE) is a powerful method to reveal the intrinsic geometry of high-dimensional data by using graphs. Imposing the orthogonal and nonnegative constraints onto the LE objective has proved to be effective to avoid degenerate and negative solutions, which, though, are challenging to achieve simultaneously because they are nonlinear and nonconvex. In addition, recent studies have shown that using the p-th order of the L2-norm distances in LE can find the best solution for clustering and promote the robustness of the embedding model against outliers, although this makes the optimization objective nonsmooth and difficult to efficiently solve in general. In this work, we study LE that uses the p-th order of the L2-norm distances and satisfies both orthogonal and nonnegative constraints. We introduce a novel smoothed iterative reweighted method to tackle this challenging optimization problem and rigorously analyze its convergence. We demonstrate the effectiveness and potential of our proposed method by extensive empirical studies on both synthetic and real data sets.
