Abstract. The purpose of this paper is twofold. We introduce the theory of random tensors, which naturally extends the method of random averaging operators in our earlier work arXiv:1910.08492, to study the propagation of randomness under…
While multilinear algebra appears natural for studying the multiway interactions modeled by hypergraphs, tensor methods for general hypergraphs have been stymied by theoretical and practical barriers. A recently proposed adjacency tensor is…
We study the tensor-on-tensor regression, where the goal is to connect tensor responses to tensor covariates with a low Tucker rank parameter tensor/matrix without the prior knowledge of its intrinsic rank. We propose the Riemannian…
Let $X$ be a symmetric, isotropic random vector in $\mathbb{R}^m$ and let $X_1...,X_n$ be independent copies of $X$. We show that under mild assumptions on $\|X\|_2$ (a suitable thin-shell bound) and on the tail-decay of the marginals…
In this paper we propose new techniques to sample arbitrary third-order tensors, with an objective of speeding up tensor algorithms that have recently gained popularity in machine learning. Our main contribution is a new way to select, in a…
Motivated by the many potential applications of low-rank multi-way tensor approximations, we set out to count the rank-one tensors that are critical points of the distance function to a general tensor v. As this count depends on v, we…
In this paper we propose efficient randomized fixed-precision techniques for low tubal rank approximation of tensors. The proposed methods are faster and more efficient than the existing fixed-precision algorithms for approximating the…
In this paper we generalize the 1-bit matrix completion problem to higher order tensors. We prove that when $r=O(1)$ a bounded rank-$r$, order-$d$ tensor $T$ in $\mathbb{R}^{N} \times \mathbb{R}^{N} \times \cdots \times \mathbb{R}^{N}$ can…
By a tensor we mean an element of a tensor product of vector spaces over a field. Up to a choice of bases in factors of tensor products, every tensor may be coordinatized, that is, represented as an array consisting of numbers. This note is…
The approximation of tensors has important applications in various disciplines, but it remains an extremely challenging task. It is well known that tensors of higher order can fail to have best low-rank approximations, but with an important…
In graph analysis, a classic task consists in computing similarity measures between (groups of) nodes. In latent space random graphs, nodes are associated to unknown latent variables. One may then seek to compute distances directly in the…
This paper is concerned with the low Tucker-rank tensor completion problem, which is about reconstructing a tensor $ T \in\mathbb{R}^{n\times n \times n}$ of low multilinear rank from partially observed entries. Riemannian optimization…
In this paper, we focus on the fixed TT-rank and precision problems of finding an approximation of the tensor train (TT) decomposition of a tensor. Note that the TT-SVD and TT-cross are two well-known algorithms for these two problems.…
The matrix spectral and nuclear norms appear in enormous applications. The generalizations of these norms to higher-order tensors is becoming increasingly important but unfortunately they are NP-hard to compute or even approximate. Although…
In this paper, we study the approximate orthogonal diagonalization problem of third order symmetric tensors. We define several classes of approximately diagonal tensors, including the ones corresponding to the stationary points of this…
The recent growing interest in nonlinear optical spectroscopy in optically active medium demands the three-dimensional rotational average of high-rank tensors. In the present paper, we present a new method for finding the rotational average…
In the Orthogonal Vectors problem (OV), we are given two families $A, B$ of subsets of $\{1,\ldots,d\}$, each of size $n$, and the task is to decide whether there exists a pair $a \in A$ and $b \in B$ such that $a \cap b = \emptyset$.…
For a general third-order tensor $\mathcal{A}\in\mathbb{R}^{n\times n\times n}$ the paper studies two closely related problems, an SVD-like tensor decomposition and an (approximate) tensor diagonalization. We develop a Jacobi-type algorithm…
We study the problem of finding orthogonal low-rank approximations of symmetric tensors. In the case of matrices, the approximation is a truncated singular value decomposition which is then symmetric. Moreover, for rank-one approximations…
We revisit the sample and computational complexity of completing a rank-1 tensor in $\otimes_{i=1}^{N} \mathbb{R}^{d}$, given a uniformly sampled subset of its entries. We present a characterization of the problem (i.e. nonzero entries)…
