Non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) is a mathematical technique used to decompose a non-negative matrix into two lower-dimensional non-negative matrices, typically referred to as factors or components. This method is widely applied in data analysis, particularly in extracting meaningful features and patterns from high-dimensional data while ensuring that all components remain non-negative, which makes it suitable for various applications including image processing and natural language processing.
