Dmitriy Lyubimov commented on MAHOUT-817:
-----------------------------------------
bq. Another problem i identified with the scheme is that Q is produced in
blocks and formation of entire row sum vector is not available at the point of
B' and BB' computation. There's one more step further in this.
Ok i think i see how to fix BB' computation as well as power iterations.
One issue still remains as far as estimate of m*Omega term is concerned. See
attached.
I am posting a first stub at bringing all the ideas together, please review. It
doesn't contain the detailed modification plan though, just the algebra.
> Add PCA options to SSVD code

> Key: MAHOUT-817
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-817
> Project: Mahout
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Affects Versions: 0.6
> Reporter: Dmitriy Lyubimov
> Assignee: Dmitriy Lyubimov
> Fix For: Backlog
>
>
> It seems that a simple solution should exist to integrate PCA mean
> subtraction into SSVD algorithm without making it a pre-requisite step and
> also avoiding densifying the big input.
> Several approaches were suggested:
> 1) subtract mean off B
> 2) propagate mean vector deeper into algorithm algebraically where the data
> is already collapsed to smaller matrices
> 3) --?
> It needs some math done first . I'll take a stab at 1 and 2 but thoughts and
> math are welcome.
