New research details complexity of entrywise power matrix factorization

A new arXiv paper delves into the computational complexity of entrywise power matrix factorization (EPMF), a technique used in various applications including the modulus model and componentwise square factorization. The research establishes a complete complexity landscape for both exact and approximate EPMF problems. It demonstrates that the exact EPMF is equivalent to the low-rank matrix signing (LRMS) problem, which is shown to be strongly NP-hard, though solvable in polynomial time for fixed ranks. The paper also proves that approximate EPMF is NP-hard even for the simplest non-trivial case of rank 2. AI

    On the Complexity of Low-Rank Matrix Signing and Entrywise Power Matrix Factorization

    Given a nonnegative matrix $X$, a factorization rank $r$ and {a positive integer $p$}, entrywise power matrix factorization (EPMF) looks for a low-rank matrix $X_r$ such that $X = |X_r|^{\circ p}$ (exact case) or $X \approx |X_r|^{\circ p}$ (approximate case), where $(\cdot)^{\ci…
