This repository contains MATLAB code to implement a basic variant of the Harmonic Mean Iteratively Reweighted Least Squares (HM-IRLS) algorithm for low-rank matrix recovery, in particular for the low-rank matrix completion problem, and to reproduce the experiments described in the paper:
C. Kümmerle, J. Sigl. "Harmonic Mean Iteratively Reweighted Least Squares for Low-Rank Matrix Recovery", to appear in the Journal of Machine Learning Research (JMLR). Available online: https://arxiv.org/abs/1703.05038
