Research Type Theoretical In this paper, we provide provable recovery guarantee of weighted low-rank via a simple alternating minimization algorithm. These provide the first theoretical results for weighted low-rank approximation via alternating minimization with nonbinary deterministic weights, significantly generalizing those for matrix completion, the special case with binary weights, since our assumptions are similar or weaker than those made in existing works. The guarantee is proved by showing that the distance between the intermediate solution and the ground truth is improved at each iteration
