It is well known that a best rank-$R$ approximation of order-3 tensors may not exist for $R\ge 2$. A best rank-$(R,R,R)$ approximation always exists, however, and is also a best rank-$R$ approximation when it has rank (at most) $R$. For…
Decompositions of tensors into factor matrices, which interact through a core tensor, have found numerous applications in signal processing and machine learning. A more general tensor model which represents data as an ordered network of…
