From bilinear regression to inductive matrix completion: a quasi-Bayesian analysis
share
In this paper we study the problem of bilinear regression and we further address the case when the response matrix contains missing data that referred as the problem of inductive matrix completion. We propose a quasi-Bayesian approach first to the problem of bilinear regression where a quasi-likelihood is employed. Then, we adapt this approach to the context of inductive matrix completion. Under a low-rankness assumption and leveraging PAC-Bayes bound technique, we provide statistical properties for our proposed estimators and for the quasi-posteriors. We propose a Langevin Monte Carlo method to approximately compute the proposed estimators. Some numerical studies are conducted to demonstrated our methods.
