Tensor Networks for Dimensionality Reduction and Large-Scale Optimizations. Part 2 Applications and Future Perspectives
Part 2 of this monograph builds on the introduction to tensor networks and
their operations presented in Part 1. It focuses on tensor network models for
super-compressed higher-order representation of data/parameters and related
cost functions, while providing an outline of their applications in machine
learning and data analytics. A particular emphasis is on the tensor train (TT)
and Hierarchical Tucker (HT) decompositions, and their physically meaningful
interpretations which reflect the scalability of the tensor network approach.
Through a graphical approach, we also elucidate how, by virtue of the
underlying low-rank tensor approximations and sophisticated contractions of
core tensors, tensor networks have the ability to perform distributed
computations on otherwise prohibitively large volumes of data/parameters,
thereby alleviating or even eliminating the curse of dimensionality. The
usefulness of this concept is illustrated over a number of applied areas,
including generalized regression and classification (support tensor machines,
canonical correlation analysis, higher order partial least squares),
generalized eigenvalue decomposition, Riemannian optimization, and in the
optimization of deep neural networks. Part 1 and Part 2 of this work can be
used either as stand-alone separate texts, or indeed as a conjoint
comprehensive review of the exciting field of low-rank tensor networks and
tensor decompositions.Comment: 232 page

Sharp analysis of low-rank kernel matrix approximations
We consider supervised learning problems within the positive-definite kernel
framework, such as kernel ridge regression, kernel logistic regression or the
support vector machine. With kernels leading to infinite-dimensional feature
spaces, a common practical limiting difficulty is the necessity of computing
the kernel matrix, which most frequently leads to algorithms with running time
at least quadratic in the number of observations n, i.e., O(n^2). Low-rank
approximations of the kernel matrix are often considered as they allow the
reduction of running time complexities to O(p^2 n), where p is the rank of the
approximation. The practicality of such methods thus depends on the required
rank p. In this paper, we show that in the context of kernel ridge regression,
for approximations based on a random subset of columns of the original kernel
matrix, the rank p may be chosen to be linear in the degrees of freedom
associated with the problem, a quantity which is classically used in the
statistical analysis of such methods, and is often seen as the implicit number
of parameters of non-parametric estimators. This result enables simple
algorithms that have sub-quadratic running time complexity, but provably
exhibit the same predictive performance than existing algorithms, for any given
problem instance, and not only for worst-case situations
