Low rank tensor learning, such as tensor completion and multilinear multitask learning, has received much attention in recent years. In this paper, we propose higher order matching pursuit for low rank tensor learning problems with a convex or a nonc
onvex cost function, which is a generalization of the matching pursuit type methods. At each iteration, the main cost of the proposed methods is only to compute a rank-one tensor, which can be done efficiently, making the proposed methods scalable to large scale problems. Moreover, storing the resulting rank-one tensors is of low storage requirement, which can help to break the curse of dimensionality. The linear convergence rate of the proposed methods is established in various circumstances. Along with the main methods, we also provide a method of low computational complexity for approximately computing the rank-one tensors, with provable approximation ratio, which helps to improve the efficiency of the main methods and to analyze the convergence rate. Experimental results on synthetic as well as real datasets verify the efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed methods.
In this paper, we mainly focus on how to generalize some conclusions from nonnegative irreducible tensors to nonnegative weakly irreducible tensors. To do so, a basic and important lemma is proven using new tools. First, we give the definition of sto
chastic tensors. Then we show that every nonnegative weakly irreducible tensor with spectral radius being one is diagonally similar to a unique weakly irreducible stochastic tensor. Based on it, we prove some important lemmas, which help us to generalize the results related. Some counterexamples are provided to show that some conclusions for nonnegative irreducible tensors do not hold for nonnegative weakly irreducible tensors.
In this paper, we generalize some conclusions from the nonnegative irreducible tensor to the nonnegative weakly irreducible tensor and give more properties of eigenvalue problems.
