Subspace learning has been widely utilized to extract discriminative features for classification task, such as face recognition, even when facial images are occluded or corrupted. However, the performance of most existing methods would be degraded significantly in the scenario of that data being contaminated with severe noise, especially when the magnitude of the gross corruption can be arbitrarily large. To this end, in this paper, a novel discriminative subspace learning method is proposed based on the well-known low-rank representation (LRR). Specifically, a discriminant low-rank representation and the projecting subspace are learned simultaneously, in a supervised way. To avoid the deviation from the original solution by using some relaxation, we adopt the Schatten [Formula: see text]-norm and [Formula: see text]-norm, instead of the nuclear norm and [Formula: see text]-norm, respectively. Experimental results on two famous databases, i.e. PIE and ORL, demonstrate that the proposed method achieves better classification scores than the state-of-the-art approaches.
