Before revision: We introduce Denise, a deep learning based algorithm for decomposing positive semidefinite matrices into the sum of a low rank plus a sparse matrix. The deep neural network is trained on a randomly generated dataset using the Cholesky factorization.
After revision: We introduce Denise, a deep learning based algorithm for decomposing positive semidefinite matrices , which learns precisely such a function. Theoretical guarantees that Denise's architecture can approximate the decomposition function, to arbitrary precision and with arbitrarily high probability, are obtained. The training scheme is also shown to convergence to a stationary point of the robust PCA's loss-function. We train Denise on a randomly generated dataset using the Cholesky factorization.
