We discuss the range of p and derive the corresponding explicit solution expression of the constrained low rank approximation problem by matrix decompositions. And an algorithm for the problem is proposed and the numerical example is given to show its feasibility. %K Low Rank Approximation %K Hermitian Matrix %K Nonnegative-Definite Matrix %K Least Square %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=101146
