Riemannian Metric and Geometric Mean for Positive Semidefinite Matrices of Fixed Rank
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper introduces a new metric and mean on the set of positive semidefinite matrices of fixed-rank. The proposed metric is derived from a well-chosen Riemannian quotient geometry that generalizes the reductive geometry of the positive cone and the associated natural metric. The resulting Riemannian space has strong geometrical properties: it is geodesically complete, and the metric is invariant with respect to all transformations that preserve angles (orthogonal transformations, scalings, and pseudoinversion). A meaningful approximation of the associated Riemannian distance is proposed, that can be efficiently numerically computed via a simple algorithm based on SVD. The induced mean preserves the rank, possesses the most desirable characteristics of a geometric mean, and is easy to compute.

متن کاملAdaptive filtering for estimation of a low-rank positive semidefinite matrix
In this paper, we adopt a geometric viewpoint to tackle the problem of estimating a linear model whose parameter is a fixed-rank positive semidefinite matrix. We consider two gradient descent flows associated to two distinct Riemannian quotient geometries that underlie this set of matrices. The resulting algorithms are non-linear and can be viewed as a generalization of Least Mean Squares that ...
متن کاملA Riemannian geometry with complete geodesics for the set of positive semidefinite matrices of fixed rank
We present a homogeneous space geometry for the manifold of symmetric positive semidefinite matrices of fixed rank. The total space is the general linear group endowed with its natural rightinvariant metric, and the metric on the homogeneous space is chosen such that the quotient space is the image of a Riemannian submersion from the total space. As a result, we obtain complete geodesics that a...
متن کاملA Novel Space-Time Representation on the Positive Semidefinite Con for Facial Expression Recognition
In this paper, we study the problem of facial expression recognition using a novel space-time geometric representation. We describe the temporal evolution of facial landmarks as parametrized trajectories on the Riemannian manifold of positive semidefinite matrices of fixed-rank. Our representation has the advantage to bring naturally a second desirable quantity when comparing shapes – the spati...
متن کاملFixed-rank matrix factorizations and Riemannian low-rank optimization
Motivated by the problem of learning a linear regression model whose parameter is a large fixed-rank non-symmetric matrix, we consider the optimization of a smooth cost function defined on the set of fixed-rank matrices. We adopt the geometric framework of optimization on Riemannian quotient manifolds. We study the underlying geometries of several well-known fixed-rank matrix factorizations and...
