The most basic form of the exact ALM function is [A, E] = exact_alm_rpca(D, λ), and that of the inexact ALM function is [A, E] = inexact_alm_rpca(D, λ), where D is a real matrix and λ is a positive real number. We solve the RPCA problem using the method of augmented Lagrange multipliers. The method converges Q-linearly to the optimal solution. The exact ALM algorithm is simple to implement, each iteration involves computing a partial SVD of a matrix the size of D, and converges to the true solution in a small number of iterations. The algorithm can be further speeded up by using a fast continuation technique, thereby yielding the inexact ALM algorithm.
