X Abstract

We describe Nonnegative Double Singular Value Decomposition (NNDSVD), a new method designed to enhance the initialization stage of nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF). NNDSVD can readily be combined with existing NMF algorithms. The basic algorithm contains no randomization and is based on approximations of positive sections of the partial SVD factors of the data matrix utilizing an algebraic property of unit rank matrices. Simple practical variants for NMF with dense factors are described. NNDSVD is also well suited to initialize NMF algorithms with sparse factors. Many numerical examples suggest that NNDSVD leads to rapid reduction of the approximation error of many NMF algorithms.
