Tensor completion in hierarchical tensor representations
Compressed sensing extends from the recovery of sparse vectors from
undersampled measurements via efficient algorithms to the recovery of matrices
of low rank from incomplete information. Here we consider a further extension
to the reconstruction of tensors of low multi-linear rank in recently
introduced hierarchical tensor formats from a small number of measurements.
Hierarchical tensors are a flexible generalization of the well-known Tucker
representation, which have the advantage that the number of degrees of freedom
of a low rank tensor does not scale exponentially with the order of the tensor.
While corresponding tensor decompositions can be computed efficiently via
successive applications of (matrix) singular value decompositions, some
important properties of the singular value decomposition do not extend from the
matrix to the tensor case. This results in major computational and theoretical
difficulties in designing and analyzing algorithms for low rank tensor
recovery. For instance, a canonical analogue of the tensor nuclear norm is
NP-hard to compute in general, which is in stark contrast to the matrix case.
In this book chapter we consider versions of iterative hard thresholding
schemes adapted to hierarchical tensor formats. A variant builds on methods
from Riemannian optimization and uses a retraction mapping from the tangent
space of the manifold of low rank tensors back to this manifold. We provide
first partial convergence results based on a tensor version of the restricted
isometry property (TRIP) of the measurement map. Moreover, an estimate of the
number of measurements is provided that ensures the TRIP of a given tensor rank
with high probability for Gaussian measurement maps.Comment: revised version, to be published in Compressed Sensing and Its

Low rank approximation of multidimensional data
In the last decades, numerical simulation has experienced tremendous improvements driven by massive growth of computing power. Exascale computing has been achieved this year and will allow solving ever more complex problems. But such large systems produce colossal amounts of data which leads to its own difficulties. Moreover, many engineering problems such as multiphysics or optimisation and control, require far more power that any computer architecture could achieve within the current scientific computing paradigm. In this chapter, we propose to shift the paradigm in order to break the curse of dimensionality by introducing decomposition to reduced data. We present an extended review of data reduction techniques and intends to bridge between applied mathematics
community and the computational mechanics one. The chapter is organized into two parts. In the first one bivariate separation is studied, including discussions on the equivalence of proper orthogonal decomposition (POD, continuous framework) and singular value decomposition (SVD, discrete matrices). Then, in the second part, a wide review of tensor formats and their approximation is proposed. Such work has already been provided in
the literature but either on separate papers or into a pure applied
mathematics framework. Here, we offer to the data enthusiast scientist a description of Canonical, Tucker, Hierarchical and Tensor train formats including their approximation algorithms. When it is possible, a careful analysis of the link between continuous and discrete methods will be performed.IV Research and Transfer Plan of the University of SevillaInstitut CarnotJunta de AndalucíaIDEX program of the University of Bordeau
A Globally and Quadratically Convergent Algorithm for Solving Multilinear Systems with M-tensors
We consider multilinear systems of equations whose coefficient tensors are (Formula presented.)-tensors. Multilinear systems of equations have many applications in engineering and scientific computing, such as data mining and numerical partial differential equations. In this paper, we show that solving multilinear systems with (Formula presented.)-tensors is equivalent to solving nonlinear systems of equations where the involving functions are P-functions. Based on this result, we propose a Newton-type method to solve multilinear systems with (Formula presented.)-tensors. For a multilinear system with a nonsingular (Formula presented.)-tensor and a positive right side vector, we prove that the sequence generated by the proposed method converges to the unique solution of the multilinear system and the convergence rate is quadratic. Numerical results are reported to show that the proposed method is promising
Geometric methods on low-rank matrix and tensor manifolds
In this chapter we present numerical methods for low-rank matrix and tensor problems that explicitly make use of the geometry of rank constrained matrix and tensor spaces. We focus on two types of problems: The first are optimization problems, like matrix and tensor completion, solving linear systems and eigenvalue problems. Such problems can be solved by numerical optimization for manifolds, called Riemannian optimization methods. We will explain the basic elements of differential geometry in order to apply such methods efficiently to rank constrained matrix and tensor spaces. The second type of problem is ordinary differential equations, defined on matrix and tensor spaces. We show how their solution can be approximated by the dynamical low-rank principle, and discuss several numerical integrators that rely in an essential way on geometric properties that are characteristic to sets of low rank matrices and tensors
Expression of high p53 levels in colorectal cancer: a favourable prognostic factor
The expression of p53 protein was examined in a series of 111 colorectal cancer adenocarcinomas with a long follow-up. A quantitative luminometric immunoassay (LIA) was used for the measurement of wild-type and mutant p53 protein in extracts from colorectal tumour cytosols, p53 being detected in 42% of the samples (range 0.0–52 ng mg−1). Using an arbitrary cut-off value of 2.7 ng mg−1, 25% of the tumours were classified as manifesting high p53 levels. There was no association of p53 expression with patient age, sex, serum preoperative carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) levels, tumour site and size, nodal status or TNM stage. Significant and independent correlation was found to exist between high p53 levels and prolonged disease-free survival (P = 0.05) at a median follow-up of 60 months. This survival advantage was most apparent among stage III cancer patients. The results from this study would suggest that expression of high p53 levels appear to be useful in selecting a group of colorectal cancer patients with a better prognosis. © 1999 Cancer Research Campaig
