This work proposes a factor-based algorithm that is able to take time into account, and provides a fully Bayesian treatment to avoid tuning parameters and achieve automatic model complexity control.Abstract:
Real-world relational data are seldom stationary, yet traditional collaborative filtering algorithms generally rely on this assumption. Motivated by our sales prediction problem, we propose a factor-based algorithm that is able to take time into account. By introducing additional factors for time, we formalize this problem as a tensor factorization with a special constraint on the time dimension. Further, we provide a fully Bayesian treatment to avoid tuning parameters and achieve automatic model complexity control. To learn the model we develop an efficient sampling procedure that is capable of analyzing large-scale data sets. This new algorithm, called Bayesian Probabilistic Tensor Factorization (BPTF), is evaluated on several real-world problems including sales prediction and movie recommendation. Empirical results demonstrate the superiority of our temporal model.read more

Nonlinear System Identification via Tensor Completion
TL;DR: In this article, a tensor completion approach is proposed to identify a general nonlinear function from input and output data pairs, where the interactions between the input variables and the scalar output of a system are modeled by a single $N$-way tensor.
