We attack the problem of getting a strict ranking (i.e. a ranking without equally ranked items) of $n$ items from a pairwise comparisons matrix. Basic structures are described, a first heuristical approach based on a condition, the…
The task of predicting missing entries of a matrix, from a subset of known entries, is known as \textit{matrix completion}. In today's data-driven world, data completion is essential whether it is the main goal or a pre-processing step.…

Given an input matrix polynomial whose coefficients are floating point numbers, we consider the problem of finding the nearest matrix polynomial which has rank at most a specified value. This generalizes the problem of finding a nearest…
Rank deficient Hankel matrices are at the core of several applications. However, in practice, the coefficients of these matrices are noisy due to e.g. measurements errors and computational errors, so generically the involved matrices are…
The low-complexity assumption in linear systems can often be expressed as rank deficiency in data matrices with generalized Hankel structure. This makes it possible to denoise the data by estimating the underlying structured low-rank…

Given only a few observed entries from a low-rank matrix $X$, matrix completion is the problem of imputing the missing entries, and it formalizes a wide range of real-world settings that involve estimating missing data. However, when there…
Structured low-rank approximation is the problem of minimizing a weighted Frobenius distance to a given matrix among all matrices of fixed rank in a linear space of matrices. We study exact solutions to this problem by way of computational…
Matrices of (approximate) low rank are pervasive in data science, appearing in recommender systems, movie preferences, topic models, medical records, and genomics. While there is a vast literature on how to exploit low rank structure in…
The low-rank matrix approximation problem is ubiquitous in computational mathematics. Traditionally, this problem is solved in spectral or Frobenius norms, where the accuracy of the approximation is related to the rate of decrease of the…
We present a novel method for matrix completion, specifically designed for matrices where one dimension is significantly larger than the other. Our Columns Selected Matrix Completion (CSMC) method combines Column Subset Selection with…
The low-rank matrix approximation problem with respect to the entry-wise $\ell_{\infty}$-norm is the following: given a matrix $M$ and a factorization rank $r$, find a matrix $X$ whose rank is at most $r$ and that minimizes $\max_{i,j}…
We revisit the class of column competent matrices and study some matrix theoretic properties of this class. The local $w$-uniqueness of the solutions to the linear complementarity problem can be identified by the column competent matrices.…
Since there exist several completion methods to estimate the missing entries of pairwise comparison matrices, practitioners face a difficult task in choosing the best technique. Our paper contributes to this issue: we consider a special set…
In this short note we extend some of the recent results on matrix completion under the assumption that the columns of the matrix can be grouped (clustered) into subspaces (not necessarily disjoint or independent). This model deviates from…
Optimization problems with rank constraints arise in many applications, including matrix regression, structured PCA, matrix completion and matrix decomposition problems. An attractive heuristic for solving such problems is to factorize the…
