### Matrix completion in Python

Last update: February 2020.

---

Python code for a few approaches at low-dimensional matrix completion. 

These methods operate in-memory and do not scale beyond size 1000 x 1000 or so. 

#### Installation

```shell
pip3 install matrix-completion
```

#### Methods

1. Nuclear norm minimization (very slow) [1]
2. Singular value thresholding [2]
3. Alternating least squares [3,4]
4. Biased alternating least squares [5]

#### Usage

```python
import numpy as np
from matrix_completion import svt_solve, calc_unobserved_rmse

U = np.random.randn(20, 5)
V = np.random.randn(15, 5)
R = np.random.randn(20, 15) + np.dot(U, V.T)

mask = np.round(np.random.rand(20, 15))
R_hat = svt_solve(R, mask)

print("RMSE:", calc_unobserved_rmse(U, V, R_hat, mask))
```

Note that here, the mask is a matrix with entries either 1 (indicating observed) or 0 (indicating missing).

See the `examples/` directory for more details.
