Nonconvex ADMM for Rank-Constrained Matrix Sensing Problem (2310.00660v2)

Abstract: Low-rank matrix approximation (LRMA) has been arisen in many applications, such as dynamic MRI, recommendation system and so on. The alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) has been designed for the nuclear norm regularized least squares problem and shows a good performance. However, due to the lack of guarantees for the convergence, there are few ADMM algorithms designed directly for the rank-constrained matrix sensing problem (RCMS). Therefore, in this paper, we propose an ADMM-based algorithm for the RCMS. Based on the Kurdyka-Lojasiewicz (KL) property, we prove that the proposed algorithm globally converges. And we discuss a specific case: the rank-constrained matrix completion problem (RCMC). Numerical experiments show that specialized for the matrix completion, the proposed algorithm performs better when the sampling rate is really low in noisy case, which is the key for the matrix completion.
