Heuristics for exact nonnegative matrix factorization
• Mathematics, Computer Science
• J. Glob. Optim.
• 2016
Two heuristics for exact NMF are proposed, one inspired from simulated annealing and the other from the greedy randomized adaptive search procedure, able to compute exact nonnegative factorizations for several classes of nonnegative matrices and demonstrate their superiority over standard multi-start strategies.

A universality theorem for nonnegative matrix factorizations
Let $A$ be a matrix with nonnegative real entries. A nonnegative factorization of size $k$ is a representation of $A$ as a sum of $k$ nonnegative rank-one matrices. The space of all suchExpand

Abstract In this paper we characterize the slack matrices of cones and polytopes among all nonnegative matrices. This leads to an algorithm for deciding whether a given matrix is a slack matrix. TheExpand

Dietzfel-binger, Hromkovic, and Schnitger (1996) showed that n ≤ (rkM)2, regardless of over which field the rank is computed, and asked whether the exponent on rkM can be improved. Expand
Real rank versus nonnegative rank

Abstract We consider the set of m × n nonnegative real matrices and define the nonnegative rank of a matrix A to be the minimum k such that A = BC where B is m × k and C is k × n . Given that theExpand

Support-based lower bounds for the positive semidefinite rank of a nonnegative matrix
• Mathematics, Computer Science

The power of lower bounds on positive semidefinite rank is characterized based on solely on the support of the matrix S, i.e., its zero/non-zero pattern. Expand

An n\times n matrix M is called a fooling-set matrix of size n, if its diagonal entries are nonzero, whereas for every k\ne \ell we have M_{k,\ell} M_{\ell,k} = 0. Dietzfelbinger, Hromkovi\v{c}, andExpand
