A computing device determines a recommendation. (A) A first parameter matrix is updated using a first direction matrix and a first step-size parameter value that is greater than one. The first parameter matrix includes a row dimension equal to a number of users of a plurality of users included in a ratings matrix and the ratings matrix includes a missing matrix value. (B) A second parameter matrix is updated using a second direction matrix and a second step-size parameter value that is greater than one. The second parameter matrix includes a column dimension equal to a number of items of a plurality of items included in the ratings matrix. (C) An objective function value is updated based on the first parameter matrix and the second parameter matrix. (D) (A) through (C) are repeated until the first parameter matrix and the second parameter matrix satisfy a convergence test.
