Non-negative Matrix Factorization - Current Research

Current Research

Current research in nonnegative matrix factorization includes, but not limited to,

(1) Algorithmic: searching for global minima of the factors and factor initialization.

(2) Scalability: how to factorize million-by-billion matrices, which are commonplace in Web-scale data mining, e.g., see Distributed Nonnegative Matrix Factorization (DNMF)

(3) Online: how to update the factorization when new data comes in without recomputing from scratch.

Famous quotes containing the words current and/or research:

    A reaction: a boat which is going against the current but which does not prevent the river from flowing on.
    Victor Hugo (1802–1885)

    Feeling that you have to be the perfect parent places a tremendous and completely unnecessary burden on you. If we’ve learned anything from the past half-century’s research on child development, it’s that children are remarkably resilient. You can make lots of mistakes and still wind up with great kids.
    Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
