Completing matrix $B$ so ${B=PA}$












0












$begingroup$


I have this problem.



${B=PA}$, where $P$ is a $ltimes l$ invertible unknown matrix. $A$,$B$ are two $l times m$ matrices.



All entries of A are known. Some entries of B are known, but some entries are missing. I want to complete these missed entries.



Theoretically, if $m$ is larger than $l$, we can find them by solving the linear equations. My questions is that are there other novel approaches to find these missed elements?



Thanks.

          since you know $mathbf{P}$, why cant you simply take the product of $mathbf{P}$ with $mathbf{A}$ and find the missing values in $mathbf{B}$ ?. If $mathbf{P}$ is unknown, best thing is to estimate $mathbf{P}$ using the known values in B using matrix factorization techniques. Since you want P to be invertible, you have to add extra constraints like $det(mathbf{P}) neq 0$

            since you know $mathbf{P}$, why cant you simply take the product of $mathbf{P}$ with $mathbf{A}$ and find the missing values in $mathbf{B}$ ?. If $mathbf{P}$ is unknown, best thing is to estimate $mathbf{P}$ using the known values in B using matrix factorization techniques. Since you want P to be invertible, you have to add extra constraints like $det(mathbf{P}) neq 0$
