In this recipe, you will learn how to compute a rank-considerant matrix approximation. The problem is formulated as an optimization problem. Given an input matrix, the aim is to find its approximation where the fit is measured using the Frobenius norm and the rank of the output matrix should not be greater than the given value. This functionality, among other fields, is used in data compression and machine learning.
