We consider the problem of selecting the best subset of exactly $k$ columns from an $m \times n$ matrix $A$. We present and analyze a novel two-stage algorithm that runs in $O(\min\{mn^2,m^2n\})$ time and returns as output an $m \times k$…

We study the low rank approximation problem of any given matrix $A$ over $\mathbb{R}^{n\times m}$ and $\mathbb{C}^{n\times m}$ in entry-wise $\ell_p$ loss, that is, finding a rank-$k$ matrix $X$ such that $\|A-X\|_p$ is minimized. Unlike…

We study subset selection for matrices defined as follows: given a matrix $\matX \in \R^{n \times m}$ ($m > n$) and an oversampling parameter $k$ ($n \le k \le m$), select a subset of $k$ columns from $\matX$ such that the pseudo-inverse of…
A CUR approximation of a matrix $A$ is a particular type of low-rank approximation $A \approx C U R$, where $C$ and $R$ consist of columns and rows of $A$, respectively. One way to obtain such an approximation is to apply column subset…
We consider a variety of criteria for selecting k representative columns from a real mxn matrix A, when sufficiently few columns are required, i.e., 1<= k<= min{rank(A), m/3}. The criteria include the following optimization problems:…
Subset selection for the rank $k$ approximation of an $n\times d$ matrix $A$ offers improvements in the interpretability of matrices, as well as a variety of computational savings. This problem is well-understood when the error measure is…
The best column approximation in the Frobenius norm with $r$ columns has an error at most $\sqrt{r+1}$ times larger than the truncated singular value decomposition. Reaching this bound in practice involves either expensive random volume…
We consider $\ell_1$-Rank-$r$ Approximation over GF(2), where for a binary $m\times n$ matrix ${\bf A}$ and a positive integer $r$, one seeks a binary matrix ${\bf B}$ of rank at most $r$, minimizing the column-sum norm $||{\bf A} -{\bf…
In many applications, it is of interest to approximate data, given by mxn matrix A, by a matrix B of at most rank k, which is much smaller than m and n. The best approximation is given by singular value decomposition, which is too time…
A common data analysis task is the reduced-rank regression problem: $$\min_{\textrm{rank-}k \ X} \|AX-B\|,$$ where $A \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times c}$ and $B \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times d}$ are given large matrices and $\|\cdot\|$ is some norm.…
The problem of column subset selection asks for a subset of columns from an input matrix such that the matrix can be reconstructed as accurately as possible within the span of the selected columns. A natural extension is to consider a…
We study the column subset selection problem with respect to the entrywise $\ell_1$-norm loss. It is known that in the worst case, to obtain a good rank-$k$ approximation to a matrix, one needs an arbitrarily large $n^{\Omega(1)}$ number of…
