Positive semi-definite matrices commonly occur as normal matrices of least squares problems in statistics or as kernel matrices in machine learning and approximation theory. They are typically large and dense. Thus algorithms to solve systems with such a matrix can be very costly. A core idea to reduce computational complexity is to approximate the matrix by one with a low rank. The optimal and well understood choice is based on the eigenvalue decomposition of the matrix. Unfortunately, this is computationally very expensive. Cheaper methods are based on Gaussian elimination but they require pivoting. We will show how invariant matrix theory provides explicit error formulas for an averaged error based on volume sampling. The formula leads to ratios of elementary symmetric polynomials on the eigenvalues. We discuss some new an old bounds and include several examples where an expected error norm can be computed exactly.

We present the Cholesky-factored symmetric positive definite neural network (SPD-NN) for modeling constitutive relations in dynamical equations. Instead of directly predicting the stress, the SPD-NN trains a neural network to predict the Cholesky fac tor of a tangent stiffness matrix, based on which the stress is calculated in the incremental form. As a result of the special structure, SPD-NN weakly imposes convexity on the strain energy function, satisfies time consistency for path-dependent materials, and therefore improves numerical stability, especially when the SPD-NN is used in finite element simulations. Depending on the types of available data, we propose two training methods, namely direct training for strain and stress pairs and indirect training for loads and displacement pairs. We demonstrate the effectiveness of SPD-NN on hyperelastic, elasto-plastic, and multiscale fiber-reinforced plate problems from solid mechanics. The generality and robustness of the SPD-NN make it a promising tool for a wide range of constitutive modeling applications.

In an iterative approach for solving linear systems with ill-conditioned, symmetric positive definite (SPD) kernel matrices, both fast matrix-vector products and fast preconditioning operations are required. Fast (linear-scaling) matrix-vector produc ts are available by expressing the kernel matrix in an $mathcal{H}^2$ representation or an equivalent fast multipole method representation. Preconditioning such matrices, however, requires a structured matrix approximation that is more regular than the $mathcal{H}^2$ representation, such as the hierarchically semiseparable (HSS) matrix representation, which provides fast solve operations. Previously, an algorithm was presented to construct an HSS approximation to an SPD kernel matrix that is guaranteed to be SPD. However, this algorithm has quadratic cost and was only designed for recursive binary partitionings of the points defining the kernel matrix. This paper presents a general algorithm for constructing an SPD HSS approximation. Importantly, the algorithm uses the $mathcal{H}^2$ representation of the SPD matrix to reduce its computational complexity from quadratic to quasilinear. Numerical experiments illustrate how this SPD HSS approximation performs as a preconditioner for solving linear systems arising from a range of kernel functions.
Quaternion matrices are employed successfully in many color image processing applications. In particular, a pure quaternion matrix can be used to represent red, green and blue channels of color images. A low-rank approximation for a pure quaternion m atrix can be obtained by using the quaternion singular value decomposition. However, this approximation is not optimal in the sense that the resulting low-rank approximation matrix may not be pure quaternion, i.e., the low-rank matrix contains real component which is not useful for the representation of a color image. The main contribution of this paper is to find an optimal rank-$r$ pure quaternion matrix approximation for a pure quaternion matrix (a color image). Our idea is to use a projection on a low-rank quaternion matrix manifold and a projection on a quaternion matrix with zero real component, and develop an alternating projections algorithm to find such optimal low-rank pure quaternion matrix approximation. The convergence of the projection algorithm can be established by showing that the low-rank quaternion matrix manifold and the zero real component quaternion matrix manifold has a non-trivial intersection point. Numerical examples on synthetic pure quaternion matrices and color images are presented to illustrate the projection algorithm can find optimal low-rank pure quaternion approximation for pure quaternion matrices or color images.
The problem of partitioning a large and sparse tensor is considered, where the tensor consists of a sequence of adjacency matrices. Theory is developed that is a generalization of spectral graph partitioning. A best rank-$(2,2,lambda)$ approximation is computed for $lambda=1,2,3$, and the partitioning is computed from the orthogonal matrices and the core tensor of the approximation. It is shown that if the tensor has a certain reducibility structure, then the solution of the best approximation problem exhibits the reducibility structure of the tensor. Further, if the tensor is close to being reducible, then still the solution of the exhibits the structure of the tensor. Numerical examples with synthetic data corroborate the theoretical results. Experiments with tensors from applications show that the method can be used to extract relevant information from large, sparse, and noisy data.
Information is extracted from large and sparse data sets organized as 3-mode tensors. Two methods are described, based on best rank-(2,2,2) and rank-(2,2,1) approximation of the tensor. The first method can be considered as a generalization of spectr al graph partitioning to tensors, and it gives a reordering of the tensor that clusters the information. The second method gives an expansion of the tensor in sparse rank-(2,2,1) terms, where the terms correspond to graphs. The low-rank approximations are computed using an efficient Krylov-Schur type algorithm that avoids filling in the sparse data. The methods are applied to topic search in news text, a tensor representing conference author-terms-years, and network traffic logs.
