contents This work is motivated by recent applications of structured dictionary learning, in particular when the dictionary is assumed to be the product of a few Householder atoms. We investigate the following two problems: 1) How do we approximate an orthogonal matrix $\mathbf{V}$ with a product of a specified number of Householder matrices, and 2) How many samples are required to learn a structured (Householder) dictionary from data? For 1) we discuss an algorithm that decomposes $\mathbf{V}$ as a product of a specified number of Householder matrices. We see that the algorithm outputs the decomposition when it exists, and give bounds on the approximation error of the algorithm when such a decomposition does not exist. For 2) given data $\mathbf{Y}=\mathbf{HX}$, we show that when assuming a binary coefficient matrix $\mathbf{X}$, the structured (Householder) dictionary learning problem can be solved with just $2$ samples (columns) in $\mathbf{Y}$.
