Faster subset selection for matrices and applications

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We study subset selection for matrices defined as follows: given a matrix matXinRnimesm (m>n) and an oversampling parameter k (nleklem), select a subset of k columns from matX such that the pseudo-inverse of the subsampled matrix has as smallest norm as possible. In this work, we focus on the Frobenius and the spectral matrix norms. We describe several novel (deterministic and randomized) approximation algorithms for this problem with approximation bounds that are optimal up to constant factors. Additionally, we show that the combinatorial problem of finding a low-stretch spanning tree in an undirected graph corresponds to subset selection, and discuss various implications of this reduction.
