Solving large tensor linear systems poses significant challenges due to the high volume of data stored, and it only becomes more challenging when some of the data is missing. Recently, Ma et al. showed that this problem can be tackled using…
Data tensors of orders 2 and greater are now routinely being generated. These data collections are increasingly huge and growing. Many scientific and medical data tensors are tensor fields (e.g., images, videos, geographic data) in which…
Many applications in data science and scientific computing involve large-scale datasets that are expensive to store and compute with, but can be efficiently compressed and stored in an appropriate tensor format. In recent years, randomized…

The statistical distribution of the ratio of two normal random variables is characterized by its heavy-tailed nature and absence of finite moments. The shape of its density function is highly variable, capable of exhibiting unimodal or…
Weibull distribution is widely used in modelling health data. However, its lack of sufficient tail flexibility often results in poor fit in extreme events. We proposed another three-parameter extension of the Weibull distribution with…
The mixture of factor analyzers (MFA) model provides a powerful tool for analyzing high-dimensional data as it can reduce the number of free parameters through its factor-analytic representation of the component covariance matrices. This…
Regression is the workhorse of statistics, and is often faced with real data that contain outliers. When these are casewise outliers, that is, cases that are entirely wrong or belong to a different population, the issue can be remedied by…
This paper addresses detecting anomalous patterns in images, time-series, and tensor data when the location and scale of the pattern is unknown a priori. The multiscale scan statistic convolves the proposed pattern with the image at various…
Constrained least squares problems arise in many applications. Their memory and computation costs are expensive in practice involving high-dimensional input data. We employ the so-called "sketching" strategy to project the least squares…
