We consider rank-one symmetric tensor estimation when the tensor is corrupted by Gaussian noise and the spike forming the tensor is a structured signal coming from a generalized linear model. The latter is a mathematically tractable model…

We use tools from random matrix theory to study the multi-spiked tensor model, i.e., a rank-$r$ deformation of a symmetric random Gaussian tensor. In particular, thanks to the nature of local optimization methods used to find the maximum…

Consider a spiked random tensor obtained as a mixture of two components: noise in the form of a symmetric Gaussian $p$-tensor for $p\geq 3$ and signal in the form of a symmetric low-rank random tensor. The latter is defined as a linear…

We study the algorithmic thresholds for principal component analysis of Gaussian $k$-tensors with a planted rank-one spike, via Langevin dynamics and gradient descent. In order to efficiently recover the spike from natural initializations,…

We consider the problem of estimating a large rank-one tensor ${\boldsymbol u}^{\otimes k}\in({\mathbb R}^{n})^{\otimes k}$, $k\ge 3$ in Gaussian noise. Earlier work characterized a critical signal-to-noise ratio $\lambda_{Bayes}= O(1)$…
