nmfSeed
lists and retrieves NMF seeding methods. getNMFSeed
is an alias for nmfSeed
.
existsNMFSeed
tells if a given seeding method
exists in the registry.
nmfSeed(name = NULL, ...)
getNMFSeed(name = NULL, ...)
existsNMFSeed(name, exact = TRUE)
nmfSeed
returns the list of
all available seeding methods.nmf
via its argument seed

The basic algorithm contains no randomization and is based on two SVD processes, one approximating the data matrix, the other approximating positive sections of the resulting partial SVD factors utilising an algebraic property of unit rank matrices.
It is well suited to initialise NMF algorithms with sparse factors. Simple practical variants of the algorithm allows to generate dense factors.

package). Only
the positive part of the result are used to initialise
the factors.This method allows the user to manually provide initial values for both matrix factors.
