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…

We consider a measurement constrained supervised learning problem, that is, (1) full sample of the predictors are given; (2) the response observations are unavailable and expensive to measure. Thus, it is ideal to select a subsample of…
