Low-rank matrix regression is a fundamental problem in data science with various applications in systems and control. Nuclear norm regularization has been widely applied to solve this problem due to its convexity. However, it suffers from…
This is a systematic investigation into the sensitivity of low-rank approximations of real matrices. We show that the low-rank approximation errors, in the two-norm, Frobenius norm and more generally, any Schatten p-norm, are insensitive to…
Low-rank approximation of a matrix by means of structured random sampling has been consistently efficient in its extensive empirical studies around the globe, but adequate formal support for this empirical phenomenon has been missing so…
This paper describes a suite of algorithms for constructing low-rank approximations of an input matrix from a random linear image of the matrix, called a sketch. These methods can preserve structural properties of the input matrix, such as…
Given a matrix $A$, a matrix nearness problem seeks an $X$ that most closely approximates $A$ in the sense of minimizing $\lVert A - X\rVert$ under a variety of constraints on $X$. A generalized matrix nearness problem seeks the same but…
By a tensor we mean an element of a tensor product of vector spaces over a field. Up to a choice of bases in factors of tensor products, every tensor may be coordinatized, that is, represented as an array consisting of numbers. This note is…
We consider the problem of approximating a given matrix by a low-rank matrix so as to minimize the entrywise $\ell_p$-approximation error, for any $p \geq 1$; the case $p = 2$ is the classical SVD problem. We obtain the first provably good…
We study a weighted low rank approximation that is inspired by a problem of constrained low rank approximation of matrices as initiated by the work of Golub, Hoffman, and Stewart (Linear Algebra and Its Applications, 88-89(1987), 317-327).…
In this paper, we investigate the generalized low rank approximation to the symmetric positive semidefinite matrix in the Frobenius norm: $$\underset{ rank(X)\leq k}{\min} \sum^m_{i=1}\left \Vert A_i - B_i XB_i^T \right \Vert^2_F,$$ where…
This paper is concerned with the solution of large-scale linear discrete ill-posed problems with error-contaminated data. Tikhonov regularization is a popular approach to determine meaningful approximate solutions of such problems. The…
A convex envelope for the problem of finding the best approximation to a given matrix with a prescribed rank is constructed. This convex envelope allows the usage of traditional optimization techniques when additional constraints are added…
Pseudospectra and structured pseudospectra are important tools for the analysis of matrices. Their computation, however, can be very demanding for all but small matrices. A new approach to compute approximations of pseudospectra and…
Low-rank matrix approximation is one of the central concepts in machine learning, with applications in dimension reduction, de-noising, multivariate statistical methodology, and many more. A recent extension to LRMA is called low-rank…

The problem of approximating a matrix by a low-rank one has been extensively studied. This problem assumes, however, that the whole matrix has a low-rank structure. This assumption is often false for real-world matrices. We consider the…
The low rank tensor approximation problem (LRTAP) is to find a tensor whose rank is small and that is close to a given one. This paper studies the LRTAP when the tensor to be approximated is close to a low rank one. Both symmetric and…
