Nonnegative Matrix Factorization

Nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) is a technique to factorize a matrix with nonnegative values into the product of two matrices. Covariates are also allowed. Parallel computing is an option to enhance the speed and high-dimensional and large scale (and/or sparse) data are allowed.
