L1-Norm Principal-Component Analysis of Complex Data

L1-norm Principal-Component Analysis (L1-PCA) of real-valued data has attracted significant research interest over the past decade. However, L1-PCA of complex-valued data remains to date unexplored despite the many possible applications (e.g., in communication systems). In this work, we establish theoretical and algorithmic foundations of L1-PCA of complex-valued data matrices. Specifically, we first show that, in contrast to the real-valued...
