For every $n \in \mathbb{N}$ and every field $K$, let $A(n,K)$ be the vector space of the antisymmetric $(n \times n)$-matrices over $K$. We say that an affine subspace $S$ of $A(n,K)$ has constant rank $r$ if every matrix of $S$ has rank…

Nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) has become a very popular technique in machine learning because it automatically extracts meaningful features through a sparse and part-based representation. However, NMF has the drawback of being…
An interval matrix is a matrix whose entries are intervals in the set of real numbers. Let $p , q $ be nonzero natural numbers and let $\mu =( [m_{i,j}, M_{i,j}])_{i,j}$ be a $p \times q$ interval matrix; given a $p \times q$ matrix $A$…

Matrix completion tackles the task of predicting missing values in a low-rank matrix based on a sparse set of observed entries. It is often assumed that the observation pattern is generated uniformly at random or has a very specific…
Sparse matrix factorization is the problem of approximating a matrix $\mathbf{Z}$ by a product of $J$ sparse factors $\mathbf{X}^{(J)} \mathbf{X}^{(J-1)} \ldots \mathbf{X}^{(1)}$. This paper focuses on identifiability issues that appear in…
In this paper we relate t-designs to a forbidden configuration problem in extremal set theory. Let 1_t 0_l denote a column of t 1's on top of l 0's. We assume t>l. Let q. (1_t 0_l) denote the (t+l)xq matrix consisting of t rows of q 1's and…
