A dual framework for low-rank tensor completion
One of the popular approaches for low-rank tensor completion is to use the
latent trace norm regularization. However, most existing works in this
direction learn a sparse combination of tensors. In this work, we fill this gap
by proposing a variant of the latent trace norm that helps in learning a
non-sparse combination of tensors. We develop a dual framework for solving the
low-rank tensor completion problem. We first show a novel characterization of
the dual solution space with an interesting factorization of the optimal
solution. Overall, the optimal solution is shown to lie on a Cartesian product
of Riemannian manifolds. Furthermore, we exploit the versatile Riemannian
optimization framework for proposing computationally efficient trust region
algorithm. The experiments illustrate the efficacy of the proposed algorithm on
several real-world datasets across applications.Comment: Aceepted to appear in Advances of Nueral Information Processing

Preconditioned low-rank Riemannian optimization for linear systems with tensor product structure
The numerical solution of partial differential equations on high-dimensional
domains gives rise to computationally challenging linear systems. When using
standard discretization techniques, the size of the linear system grows
exponentially with the number of dimensions, making the use of classic
iterative solvers infeasible. During the last few years, low-rank tensor
approaches have been developed that allow to mitigate this curse of
dimensionality by exploiting the underlying structure of the linear operator.
In this work, we focus on tensors represented in the Tucker and tensor train
formats. We propose two preconditioned gradient methods on the corresponding
low-rank tensor manifolds: A Riemannian version of the preconditioned
Richardson method as well as an approximate Newton scheme based on the
Riemannian Hessian. For the latter, considerable attention is given to the
efficient solution of the resulting Newton equation. In numerical experiments,
we compare the efficiency of our Riemannian algorithms with other established
tensor-based approaches such as a truncated preconditioned Richardson method
and the alternating linear scheme. The results show that our approximate
Riemannian Newton scheme is significantly faster in cases when the application
of the linear operator is expensive.Comment: 24 pages, 8 figure
R3MC: A Riemannian three-factor algorithm for low-rank matrix completion
We exploit the versatile framework of Riemannian optimization on quotient
manifolds to develop R3MC, a nonlinear conjugate-gradient method for low-rank
matrix completion. The underlying search space of fixed-rank matrices is
endowed with a novel Riemannian metric that is tailored to the least-squares
cost. Numerical comparisons suggest that R3MC robustly outperforms
state-of-the-art algorithms across different problem instances, especially
those that combine scarcely sampled and ill-conditioned data.Comment: Accepted for publication in the proceedings of the 53rd IEEE

Proceedings of the second "international Traveling Workshop on Interactions between Sparse models and Technology" (iTWIST'14)
The implicit objective of the biennial "international - Traveling Workshop on
Interactions between Sparse models and Technology" (iTWIST) is to foster
collaboration between international scientific teams by disseminating ideas
through both specific oral/poster presentations and free discussions. For its
second edition, the iTWIST workshop took place in the medieval and picturesque
town of Namur in Belgium, from Wednesday August 27th till Friday August 29th,
2014. The workshop was conveniently located in "The Arsenal" building within
walking distance of both hotels and town center. iTWIST'14 has gathered about
70 international participants and has featured 9 invited talks, 10 oral
presentations, and 14 posters on the following themes, all related to the
theory, application and generalization of the "sparsity paradigm":
Sparsity-driven data sensing and processing; Union of low dimensional
subspaces; Beyond linear and convex inverse problem; Matrix/manifold/graph
sensing/processing; Blind inverse problems and dictionary learning; Sparsity
and computational neuroscience; Information theory, geometry and randomness;
Complexity/accuracy tradeoffs in numerical methods; Sparsity? What's next?;
Sparse machine learning and inference.Comment: 69 pages, 24 extended abstracts, iTWIST'14 website:

A literature survey of low-rank tensor approximation techniques
During the last years, low-rank tensor approximation has been established as
a new tool in scientific computing to address large-scale linear and
multilinear algebra problems, which would be intractable by classical
techniques. This survey attempts to give a literature overview of current
developments in this area, with an emphasis on function-related tensors
