Multichannel Non-Negative Matrix Factorization Using Banded Spatial Covariance Matrices in Wavenumber Domain

Multichannel signal processing using spatial rank covariance matrices

This paper addresses the problem of estimating the covariance matrix reliably when the assumptions, such as Gaussianity, on the probabilistic nature of multichannel data do not necessarily hold. Multivariate spatial sign and rank functions, which are generalizations of univariate sign and centered rank, are introduced. Furthermore, spatial rank covariance matrix and spatial Kendall’s tau covari...

Non-negative matrix factorization

Email Surveillance Using Non-negative Matrix Factorization

In this study, we apply a non-negative matrix factorization approach for the extraction and detection of concepts or topics from electronic mail messages. For the publicly released Enron electronic mail collection, we encode sparse term-by-message matrices and use a low rank non-negative matrix factorization algorithm to preserve natural data non-negativity and avoid subtractive basis vector an...

A new approach for building recommender system using non negative matrix factorization method

Nonnegative Matrix Factorization is a new approach to reduce data dimensions. In this method, by applying the nonnegativity of the matrix data, the matrix is ​​decomposed into components that are more interrelated and divide the data into sections where the data in these sections have a specific relationship. In this paper, we use the nonnegative matrix factorization to decompose the user ratin...

Bayesian Non-negative Matrix Factorization

We present a Bayesian treatment of non-negative matrix factorization (NMF), based on a normal likelihood and exponential priors, and derive an efficient Gibbs sampler to approximate the posterior density of the NMF factors. On a chemical brain imaging data set, we show that this improves interpretability by providing uncertainty estimates. We discuss how the Gibbs sampler can be used for model ...
