We provide a framework and algorithm for tuning the hyperparameters of the Graphical Lasso via a bilevel optimization problem solved with a first-order method. In particular, we derive the Jacobian of the Graphical Lasso solution with respect to its regularization hyperparameters.

Non-negative matrix factorization is a problem of dimensionality reduction and source separation of data that has been widely used in many fields since it was studied in depth in 1999 by Lee and Seung, including in compression of data, document clustering, processing of audio spectrograms and astronomy. In this work we have adapted a minimization scheme for convex functions with non-differentiable constraints called PALM to solve the NMF problem with solutions that can be smooth and/or sparse, two properties frequently desired.
