چکیده

In this paper we discuss the use of block principal pivoting and predictor-corrector methods for the solution of large-scale linear least squares problems with nonnegative variables (NVLSQ). We also describe two implementations of these algorithms that are based on the normal equations and corrected seminormal equations (CSNE) approaches. We show that the method of normal equations should be employed in the implementation of the predictor-corrector algorithm. This type of approach should also be used in the implementation of the block principal pivoting method, but a switch to the CSNE method may be useful in the last iterations of the algorithm. Computational experience is also included in this paper and shows that both the predictor-corrector and the block principal pivoting algorithms are quite efficient to deal with large-scale NVLSQ problems.

Fast Nonnegative Tensor Factorization with an Active-Set-Like Method

We introduce an efficient algorithm for computing a low-rank nonnegative CANDECOMP/PARAFAC (NNCP) decomposition. In text mining, signal processing, and computer vision among other areas, imposing nonnegativity constraints to low-rank factors has been shown an effective technique providing physically meaningful interpretation. A principled methodology for computing NNCP is alternating nonnegativ...

NEW MODELS AND ALGORITHMS FOR SOLUTIONS OF SINGLE-SIGNED FULLY FUZZY LR LINEAR SYSTEMS

We present a model and propose an approach to compute an approximate solution of Fully Fuzzy Linear System $(FFLS)$ of equations in which all the components of the coefficient matrix are either nonnegative or nonpositive. First, in discussing an $FFLS$ with a nonnegative coefficient matrix, we consider an equivalent $FFLS$ by using an appropriate permutation to simplify fuzzy multiplications. T...

A Projected Alternating Least square Approach for Computation of Nonnegative Matrix Factorization

Nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) is a common method in data mining that have been used in different applications as a dimension reduction, classification or clustering method. Methods in alternating least square (ALS) approach usually used to solve this non-convex minimization problem.  At each step of ALS algorithms two convex least square problems should be solved, which causes high com...

Exact and approximate solutions of fuzzy LR linear systems: New algorithms using a least squares model and the ABS approach

We present a methodology for characterization and an approach for computing the solutions of fuzzy linear systems with LR fuzzy variables. As solutions, notions of exact and approximate solutions are considered. We transform the fuzzy linear system into a corresponding linear crisp system and a constrained least squares problem. If the corresponding crisp system is incompatible, then the fuzzy ...
