Dictionary-based Tensor Canonical Polyadic Decomposition

To ensure interpretability of extracted sources in tensor decomposition, we introduce in this paper a dictionary-based tensor canonical polyadic decomposition which enforces one factor to belong exactly to a known dictionary. A new formulation of sparse coding is proposed which enables high dimensional tensors dictionary-based canonical polyadic decomposition. The benefits of using a dictionary in tensor decomposition models are explored both in terms of parameter identifiability and estimation accuracy. Performances of the proposed algorithms are evaluated on the decomposition of simulated data and the unmixing of hyperspectral images

EXTRAPOLATED ALTERNATING ALGORITHMS FOR APPROXIMATE CANONICAL POLYADIC DECOMPOSITION

Tensor decompositions have become a central tool in machine learning to extract interpretable patterns from multiway arrays of data. However, computing the approximate Canonical Polyadic Decomposition (aCPD), one of the most important tensor decomposition model, remains a challenge. In this work, we propose several algorithms based on extrapolation that improve over existing alternating methods for aCPD. We show on several simulated and real data sets that carefully designed extrapolation can significantly improve the convergence speed hence reduce the computational time, especially in difficult scenarios
