======================================================================
Interpolative matrix decomposition (:mod:`scipy.linalg.interpolative`)
======================================================================

.. moduleauthor:: Kenneth L. Ho <klho@stanford.edu>

.. versionadded:: 0.13

.. currentmodule:: scipy.linalg.interpolative

An interpolative decomposition (ID) of a matrix :math:`A \in
\mathbb{C}^{m \times n}` of rank :math:`k \leq \min \{ m, n \}` is a
factorization

.. math::
  A \Pi =
  \begin{bmatrix}
   A \Pi_{1} & A \Pi_{2}
  \end{bmatrix} =
  A \Pi_{1}
  \begin{bmatrix}
   I & T
  \end{bmatrix},

where :math:`\Pi = [\Pi_{1}, \Pi_{2}]` is a permutation matrix with
:math:`\Pi_{1} \in \{ 0, 1 \}^{n \times k}`, i.e., :math:`A \Pi_{2} =
A \Pi_{1} T`. This can equivalently be written as :math:`A = BP`,
where :math:`B = A \Pi_{1}` and :math:`P = [I, T] \Pi^{\mathsf{T}}`
are the *skeleton* and *interpolation matrices*, respectively.

If :math:`A` does not have exact rank :math:`k`, then there exists an
approximation in the form of an ID such that :math:`A = BP + E`, where
:math:`\| E \| \sim \sigma_{k + 1}` is on the order of the :math:`(k +
1)`-th largest singular value of :math:`A`. Note that :math:`\sigma_{k
+ 1}` is the best possible error for a rank-:math:`k` approximation
and, in fact, is achieved by the singular value decomposition (SVD)
:math:`A \approx U S V^{*}`, where :math:`U \in \mathbb{C}^{m \times
k}` and :math:`V \in \mathbb{C}^{n \times k}` have orthonormal columns
and :math:`S = \mathop{\mathrm{diag}} (\sigma_{i}) \in \mathbb{C}^{k
\times k}` is diagonal with nonnegative entries. The principal
advantages of using an ID over an SVD are that:

- it is cheaper to construct;
- it preserves the structure of :math:`A`; and
- it is more efficient to compute with in light of the identity submatrix of :math:`P`.

This module uses the ID software package [1]_ by Martinsson, Rokhlin,
Shkolnisky, and Tygert, which is a Fortran library for computing IDs
using various algorithms, including the rank-revealing QR approach of
[2]_ and the more recent randomized methods described in [3]_, [4]_,
and [5]_. This module exposes its functionality in a way convenient
for Python users. Note that this module does not add any functionality
beyond that of organizing a simpler and more consistent interface.

Tutorial
========

Initializing
------------

The first step is to import :mod:`scipy.linalg.interpolative` by issuing the
command:

>>> import scipy.linalg.interpolative as sli

Now let's build a matrix. For this, we consider a Hilbert matrix, which is well
know to have low rank:

>>> from scipy.linalg import hilbert
>>> n = 1000
>>> A = hilbert(n)

We can also do this explicitly via:

>>> import numpy as np
>>> n = 1000
>>> A = np.empty((n, n), order='F')
>>> for j in range(n):
>>>     for i in range(m):
>>>         A[i,j] = 1. / (i + j + 1)

Note the use of the flag ``order='F'`` in :func:`numpy.empty`. This
instantiates the matrix in Fortran-contiguous order and is important for
avoiding data copying when passing to the backend.

We then define multiplication routines for the matrix by regarding it as a
:class:`scipy.sparse.linalg.LinearOperator`:

>>> from scipy.sparse.linalg import aslinearoperator
>>> L = aslinearoperator(A)

This automatically sets up methods describing the action of the matrix and its
adjoint on a vector.

Computing an ID
---------------

We have several choices of algorithm to compute an ID. These fall largely
according to two dichotomies:

1. how the matrix is represented, i.e., via its entries or via its action on a
   vector; and
2. whether to approximate it to a fixed relative precision or to a fixed rank.

We step through each choice in turn below.

In all cases, the ID is represented by three parameters:

1. a rank ``k``;
2. an index array ``idx``; and
3. interpolation coefficients ``proj``.

The ID is specified by the relation
``np.dot(A[:,idx[:k]], proj) == A[:,idx[k:]]``.

From matrix entries
...................

We first consider a matrix given in terms of its entries.

To compute an ID to a fixed precision, type:

>>> k, idx, proj = sli.interp_decomp(A, eps)

where ``eps < 1`` is the desired precision.

To compute an ID to a fixed rank, use:

>>> idx, proj = sli.interp_decomp(A, k)

where ``k >= 1`` is the desired rank.

Both algorithms use random sampling and are usually faster than the
corresponding older, deterministic algorithms, which can be accessed via the
commands:

>>> k, idx, proj = sli.interp_decomp(A, eps, rand=False)

and:

>>> idx, proj = sli.interp_decomp(A, k, rand=False)

respectively.

From matrix action
..................

Now consider a matrix given in terms of its action on a vector as a
:class:`scipy.sparse.linalg.LinearOperator`.

To compute an ID to a fixed precision, type:

>>> k, idx, proj = sli.interp_decomp(L, eps)

To compute an ID to a fixed rank, use:

>>> idx, proj = sli.interp_decomp(L, k)

These algorithms are randomized.

Reconstructing an ID
--------------------

The ID routines above do not output the skeleton and interpolation matrices
explicitly but instead return the relevant information in a more compact (and
sometimes more useful) form. To build these matrices, write:

>>> B = sli.reconstruct_skel_matrix(A, k, idx)

for the skeleton matrix and:

>>> P = sli.reconstruct_interp_matrix(idx, proj)

for the interpolation matrix. The ID approximation can then be computed as:

>>> C = np.dot(B, P)

This can also be constructed directly using:

>>> C = sli.reconstruct_matrix_from_id(B, idx, proj)

without having to first compute ``P``.

Alternatively, this can be done explicitly as well using:

>>> B = A[:,idx[:k]]
>>> P = np.hstack([np.eye(k), proj])[:,np.argsort(idx)]
>>> C = np.dot(B, P)

Computing an SVD
----------------

An ID can be converted to an SVD via the command:

>>> U, S, V = sli.id_to_svd(B, idx, proj)

The SVD approximation is then:

>>> C = np.dot(U, np.dot(np.diag(S), np.dot(V.conj().T)))

The SVD can also be computed "fresh" by combining both the ID and conversion
steps into one command. Following the various ID algorithms above, there are
correspondingly various SVD algorithms that one can employ.

From matrix entries
...................

We consider first SVD algorithms for a matrix given in terms of its entries.

To compute an SVD to a fixed precision, type:

>>> U, S, V = sli.svd(A, eps)

To compute an SVD to a fixed rank, use:

>>> U, S, V = sli.svd(A, k)

Both algorithms use random sampling; for the determinstic versions, issue the
keyword ``rand=False`` as above.

From matrix action
..................

Now consider a matrix given in terms of its action on a vector.

To compute an SVD to a fixed precision, type:

>>> U, S, V = sli.svd(L, eps)

To compute an SVD to a fixed rank, use:

>>> U, S, V = sli.svd(L, k)

Utility routines
----------------

Several utility routines are also available.

To estimate the spectral norm of a matrix, use:

>>> snorm = sli.estimate_spectral_norm(A)

This algorithm is based on the randomized power method and thus requires only
matrix-vector products. The number of iterations to take can be set using the
keyword ``its`` (default: ``its=20``). The matrix is interpreted as a
:class:`scipy.sparse.linalg.LinearOperator`, but it is also valid to supply it
as a :class:`numpy.ndarray`, in which case it is trivially converted using
:func:`scipy.sparse.linalg.aslinearoperator`.

The same algorithm can also estimate the spectral norm of the difference of two
matrices ``A1`` and ``A2`` as follows:

>>> diff = sli.estimate_spectral_norm_diff(A1, A2)

This is often useful for checking the accuracy of a matrix approximation.

Some routines in :mod:`scipy.linalg.interpolative` require estimating the rank
of a matrix as well. This can be done with either:
