Overview of Constrained PARAFAC Models
In this paper, we present an overview of constrained PARAFAC models where the
constraints model linear dependencies among columns of the factor matrices of
the tensor decomposition, or alternatively, the pattern of interactions between
different modes of the tensor which are captured by the equivalent core tensor.
Some tensor prerequisites with a particular emphasis on mode combination using
Kronecker products of canonical vectors that makes easier matricization
operations, are first introduced. This Kronecker product based approach is also
formulated in terms of the index notation, which provides an original and
concise formalism for both matricizing tensors and writing tensor models. Then,
after a brief reminder of PARAFAC and Tucker models, two families of
constrained tensor models, the co-called PARALIND/CONFAC and PARATUCK models,
are described in a unified framework, for order tensors. New tensor
models, called nested Tucker models and block PARALIND/CONFAC models, are also
introduced. A link between PARATUCK models and constrained PARAFAC models is
then established. Finally, new uniqueness properties of PARATUCK models are
deduced from sufficient conditions for essential uniqueness of their associated
constrained PARAFAC models
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
