In this paper, we describe a low-rank matrix completion method based on matrix decomposition. An incomplete matrix is decomposed into submatrices which are filled with a proposed trimming step and then are recombined to form a low-rank completed matrix. The divide-and-conquer approach can significantly reduce computation complexity and storage requirement. Moreover, the proposed decomposition method can be naturally incorporated into any existing matrix completion methods to attain further gain. Unlike most existing approaches, the proposed method is not based on norm minimization nor SVD decomposition. This makes it possible to be applied beyond real domain and can be used in arbitrary fields including finite fields.
