Faster tensor train decomposition for sparse data

In recent years, the application of tensors has become more widespread in fields that involve data analytics and numerical computation. Due to the explosive growth of data, low-rank tensor decompositions have become a powerful tool to harness the notorious curse of dimensionality. The main forms of tensor decomposition include CP...

Kernelized support tensor train machines

Tensor, a multi-dimensional data structure, has been exploited recently in the machine learning community. Traditional machine learning approaches are vector- or matrix-based, and cannot handle tensorial data directly. In this paper, we propose a tensor train (TT)-based kernel technique for the first time, and apply it to the conventional...

Fast and Accurate Tensor Completion with Total Variation Regularized Tensor Trains

We propose a new tensor completion method based on tensor trains. The to-be-completed tensor is modeled as a low-rank tensor train, where we use the known tensor entries and their coordinates to update the tensor train. A novel tensor train initialization procedure is proposed specifically for image and video completion, which is demonstrated...
