Public methods
Method new()
create PureSVD model
Usage
PureSVD$new(
  rank = 10L,
  lambda = 0,
  init = NULL,
  preprocess = identity,
  method = c("svd", "impute"),
  ...
)Arguments
- rank
- size of the latent dimension 
lambdaregularization parameter
initinitialization of item embeddings
preprocessidentity() by default. User spectified function which will
be applied to user-item interaction matrix before running matrix factorization
(also applied during inference time before making predictions).
For example we may want to normalize each row of user-item matrix to have 1 norm.
Or apply log1p() to discount large counts.
methodtype of the solver for initialization of the orthogonal
basis. Original paper uses SVD. See paper for details.

Method fit_transform()
performs matrix factorization
Usage
PureSVD$fit_transform(x, n_iter = 100L, convergence_tol = 0.001, ...)
Arguments
- x
- input sparse user-item matrix(of class - dgCMatrix)
 
n_itermaximum number of iterations
convergence_tolnumeric = -Inf defines early stopping strategy.
Stops fitting when one of two following conditions will be satisfied: (a) passed
all iterations (b) relative change of Frobenious norm of the two consequent solution
is less then provided convergence_tol.

Arguments

- input matrix

Method clone()
The objects of this class are cloneable with this method.
Usage
PureSVD$clone(deep = FALSE)
Arguments
- deep
- Whether to make a deep clone.
