Approximating with Kronecker Products
Abstract: I will give an overview of the following approximation problem.
Given a matrix A and a factorization of its dimensions, find matrices B and C of the corresponding dimensions whose Kronecker product is as close as possible to A in Frobenius norm:
min || A - Bx C ||_F
B,C
Various constrained Kronecker product approximation problems are also
considered along with examples of where such approximations are useful.
See the Kronecker
products home page for more details.
