This survey provides an overview of higher-order tensor decompositions, their applications, and available software. A tensor is a multidimensional or $N$-way array. Decompositions of higher-order tensors (i.e., $N$-way arrays with $N \geq 3$) have applications in psycho-metrics, chemometrics, signal processing, numerical linear algebra, computer vision, numerical analysis, data mining, neuroscience, graph analysis, and elsewhere. Two particular tensor decompositions can be considered to be higher-order extensions of the matrix singular value decomposition: CANDECOMP/PARAFAC (CP) decomposes a tensor as a sum of rank-one tensors, and the Tucker decomposition is a higher-order form of principal component analysis. There are many other tensor decompositions, including INDSCAL, PARAFAC2, CANDELINC, DEDICOM, and PARATUCK2 as well as nonnegative variants of all of the above. The N-way Toolbox, Tensor Toolbox, and Multilinear Engine are examples of software packages for working with tensors.

Nonnegative Matrix and Tensor Factorizations: Applications to Exploratory Multi-way Data Analysis and Blind Source Separation

Tensors or multiway arrays are functions of three or more indices $(i,j,k,\ldots)$ —similar to matrices (two-way arrays), which are functions of two indices $(r,c)$ for (row, column). Tensors have a rich history, stretching over almost a century, and touching upon numerous disciplines; but they have only recently become ubiquitous in signal and data analytics at the confluence of signal processing, statistics, data mining, and machine learning. This overview article aims to provide a good starting point for researchers and practitioners interested in learning about and working with tensors. As such, it focuses on fundamentals and motivation (using various application examples), aiming to strike an appropriate balance of breadth and depth that will enable someone having taken first graduate courses in matrix algebra and probability to get started doing research and/or developing tensor algorithms and software. Some background in applied optimization is useful but not strictly required. The material covered includes tensor rank and rank decomposition; basic tensor factorization models and their relationships and properties (including fairly good coverage of identifiability); broad coverage of algorithms ranging from alternating optimization to stochastic gradient; statistical performance analysis; and applications ranging from source separation to collaborative filtering, mixture and topic modeling, classification, and multilinear subspace learning.

Tensor Decomposition for Signal Processing and Machine Learning

The widespread use of multisensor technology and the emergence of big data sets have highlighted the limitations of standard flat-view matrix models and the necessity to move toward more versatile data analysis tools. We show that higher-order tensors (i.e., multiway arrays) enable such a fundamental paradigm shift toward models that are essentially polynomial, the uniqueness of which, unlike the matrix methods, is guaranteed under very mild and natural conditions. Benefiting from the power of multilinear algebra as their mathematical backbone, data analysis techniques using tensor decompositions are shown to have great flexibility in the choice of constraints which match data properties and extract more general latent components in the data than matrix-based methods.

Tensor Decompositions for Signal Processing Applications: From two-way to multiway component analysis

This book provides a broad survey of models and efficient algorithms for Nonnegative Matrix Factorization (NMF). This includes NMFs various extensions and modifications, especially Nonnegative Tensor Factorizations (NTF) and Nonnegative Tucker Decompositions (NTD). NMF/NTF and their extensions are increasingly used as tools in signal and image processing, and data analysis, having garnered interest due to their capability to provide new insights and relevant information about the complex latent relationships in experimental data sets. It is suggested that NMF can provide meaningful components with physical interpretations; for example, in bioinformatics, NMF and its extensions have been successfully applied to gene expression, sequence analysis, the functional characterization of genes, clustering and text mining. As such, the authors focus on the algorithms that are most useful in practice, looking at the fastest, most robust, and suitable for large-scale models. Key features: Acts as a single source reference guide to NMF, collating information that is widely dispersed in current literature, including the authors own recently developed techniques in the subject area. Uses generalized cost functions such as Bregman, Alpha and Beta divergences, to present practical implementations of several types of robust algorithms, in particular Multiplicative, Alternating Least Squares, Projected Gradient and Quasi Newton algorithms. Provides a comparative analysis of the different methods in order to identify approximation error and complexity. Includes pseudo codes and optimized MATLAB source codes for almost all algorithms presented in the book. The increasing interest in nonnegative matrix and tensor factorizations, as well as decompositions and sparse representation of data, will ensure that this book is essential reading for engineers, scientists, researchers, industry practitioners and graduate students across signal and image processing; neuroscience; data mining and data analysis; computer science; bioinformatics; speech processing; biomedical engineering; and multimedia.

Algorithms in data mining using matrix and tensor methods

Several Krylov-type procedures are introduced that generalize matrix Krylov methods for tensor computations. They are denoted minimal Krylov recursion, maximal Krylov recursion, contracted tensor product Krylov recursion. It is proved that the for a given tensor with low rank, the minimal Krylov recursion extracts the correct subspaces associated to the tensor within certain number of iterations. An optimized minimal Krylov procedure is described that gives a better tensor approximation for a given multilinear rank than the standard minimal recursion. The maximal Krylov recursion naturally admits a Krylov factorization of the tensor. The tensor Krylov methods are intended for the computation of low-rank approximations of large and sparse tensors, but they are also useful for certain dense and structured tensors for computing their higher order singular value decompositions or obtaining starting points for the best low-rank computations of tensors. A set of numerical experiments, using real life and synthetic data sets, illustrate some of the properties of the tensor Krylov methods.

Krylov-Type Methods for Tensor Computations

In this paper we develop a novel clustered matrix approximation framework, first showing the motivation behind our research The proposed methods are particularly well suited for problems with large scale sparse matrices that represent graphs and/or bipartite graphs from information science applications Our framework and resulting approximations have a number of benefits: (1) the approximations preserve important structure that is present in the original matrix; (2) the approximations contain both global-scale and local-scale information; (3) the procedure is efficient both in computational speed and memory usage; and (4) the resulting approximations are considerably more accurate with less memory usage than truncated SVD approximations, which are optimal with respect to rank The framework is also quite flexible as it may be modified in various ways to fit the needs of a particular application In the paper we also derive a probabilistic approach that uses randomness to compute a clustered matrix approx
