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…
We prove that for any real-valued matrix $X \in \R^{m \times n}$, and positive integers $r \ge k$, there is a subset of $r$ columns of $X$ such that projecting $X$ onto their span gives a $\sqrt{\frac{r+1}{r-k+1}}$-approximation to best…
