Notation

Description

n

Number of samples

d

Number of genes

c

Number of sample clusters

m

Number of gene clusters

X

Gene expression matrix of size d × n

X ∙i

The ith column of X, representing the expression of the ith sample

X i∙

The ith row of X, representing the expression of the ith gene

F

Sample partition matrix of size n × c; F ij [0,1]: F ij  = 1 if X ∙i belongs to sample cluster j and F ij  = 0 otherwise

G

Feature partition matrix of size d × m; G ij [0,1]: G ij  = 1 if X i∙ belongs to gene cluster j and G ij  = 0 otherwise

S

A m × c matrix

W

A d × d diagonal matrix; entries are the weights of the genes
