Fast Length-Squared Sampling for Positive-Semidefinite Matrices

arXiv:2608. 12503v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We describe a simple rejection-sampling-based algorithm to perform length-squared sampling on an $n \times n$ positive-semidefinite (psd) matrix: that is, to sample a column with probability proportional to its squared $\ell_2$-norm.
