New O(n) algorithm simplifies matrix sampling for AI research

Researchers have developed a new algorithm for length-squared sampling of positive-semidefinite matrices, achieving an expected runtime of O(n). This method is optimal and has applications in sublinear time algorithms for matrix problems such as low-rank and eigenvalue approximation. The algorithm also enables a simpler, asymptotically optimal approach for estimating the Frobenius norm of a positive-semidefinite matrix and provides an efficient solution for the robust positive-semidefinite low-rank approximation problem.

    Fast Length-Squared Sampling for Positive-Semidefinite Matrices

    arXiv:2608.12503v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We describe a simple rejection-sampling-based algorithm to perform length-squared sampling on an $n \times n$ positive-semidefinite (psd) matrix: that is, to sample a column with probability proportional to its squared $\ell_2$-no…
