What Does PMF Stand For?

PMF stands for Positive Matrix Factorization

Positive Matrix Factorization (PMF) is a mathematical technique used in data analysis and machine learning that decomposes a given non-negative matrix into product factors with non-negative elements. This method is particularly useful for tasks such as collaborative filtering, topic modeling, and dimension reduction, as it facilitates the identification of latent patterns and structure within large datasets while preserving interpretability. PMF finds applications in various fields, including recommendation systems, image processing, and bioinformatics.
