In this paper, a new class of positive semi-definite tensors, the MO tensor, is introduced. It is inspired by the structure of Moler matrix, a class of test matrices. Then we focus on two special cases in the MO-tensors: Sup-MO tensor and essential MO tensor. They are proved to be positive definite tensors. Especially, the smallest H-eigenvalue of a Sup-MO tensor is positive and tends to zero as the dimension tends to infinity, and an essential MO tensor is also a completely positive tensor.

Spatial symmetries and invariances play an important role in the description of materials. When modelling material properties, it is important to be able to respect such invariances. Here we discuss how to model and generate random ensembles of tenso rs where one wants to be able to prescribe certain classes of spatial symmetries and invariances for the whole ensemble, while at the same time demanding that the mean or expected value of the ensemble be subject to a possibly higher spatial invariance class. Our special interest is in the class of physically symmetric and positive definite tensors, as they appear often in the description of materials. As the set of positive definite tensors is not a linear space, but rather an open convex cone in the linear vector space of physically symmetric tensors, it may be advantageous to widen the notion of mean to the so-called Frechet mean, which is based on distance measures between positive definite tensors other than the usual Euclidean one. For the sake of simplicity, as well as to expose the main idea as clearly as possible, we limit ourselves here to second order tensors. It is shown how the random ensemble can be modelled and generated, with fine control of the spatial symmetry or invariance of the whole ensemble, as well as its Frechet mean, independently in its scaling and directional aspects. As an example, a 2D and a 3D model of steady-state heat conduction in a human proximal femur, a bone with high material anisotropy, is explored. It is modelled with a random thermal conductivity tensor, and the numerical results show the distinct impact of incorporating into the constitutive model different material uncertainties$-$scaling, orientation, and prescribed material symmetry$-$on the desired quantities of interest, such as temperature distribution and heat flux.

With view to applications in stochastic analysis and geometry, we introduce a new correspondence for positive definite kernels (p.d.) $K$ and their associated reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. With this we establish two kinds of factorizations: (i) Probabilistic: Starting with a positive definite kernel $K$ we analyze associated Gaussian processes $V$. Properties of the Gaussian processes will be derived from certain factorizations of $K$, arising as a covariance kernel of $V$. (ii) Geometric analysis: We discuss families of measure spaces arising as boundaries for $K$. Our results entail an analysis of a partial order on families of p.d. kernels, a duality for operators and frames, optimization, Karhunen--Lo`eve expansions, and factorizations. Applications include a new boundary analysis for the Drury-Arveson kernel, and for certain fractals arising as iterated function systems; and an identification of optimal feature spaces in machine learning models.
The effectiveness of Symmetric Positive Definite (SPD) manifold features has been proven in various computer vision tasks. However, due to the non-Euclidean geometry of these features, existing Euclidean machineries cannot be directly used. In this p aper, we tackle the classification tasks with limited training data on SPD manifolds. Our proposed framework, named Manifold Convex Class Model, represents each class on SPD manifolds using a convex model, and classification can be performed by computing distances to the convex models. We provide three methods based on different metrics to address the optimization problem of the smallest distance of a point to the convex model on SPD manifold. The efficacy of our proposed framework is demonstrated both on synthetic data and several computer vision tasks including object recognition, texture classification, person re-identification and traffic scene classification.
Let $mathbb{C}^{ntimes n}$ be the set of all $n times n$ complex matrices. For any Hermitian positive semi-definite matrices $A$ and $B$ in $mathbb{C}^{ntimes n}$, their new common upper bound less than $A+B-A:B$ is constructed, where $(A+B)^dag$ den otes the Moore-Penrose inverse of $A+B$, and $A:B=A(A+B)^dag B$ is the parallel sum of $A$ and $B$. A factorization formula for $(A+X):(B+Y)-A:B-X:Y$ is derived, where $X,Yinmathbb{C}^{ntimes n}$ are any Hermitian positive semi-definite perturbations of $A$ and $B$, respectively. Based on the derived factorization formula and the constructed common upper bound of $X$ and $Y$, some new and sharp norm upper bounds of $(A+X):(B+Y)-A:B$ are provided. Numerical examples are also provided to illustrate the sharpness of the obtained norm upper bounds.
The concepts of P- and P$_0$-matrices are generalized to P- and P$_0$-tensors of even and odd orders via homogeneous formulae. Analog to the matrix case, our P-tensor definition encompasses many important classes of tensors such as the positive defin ite tensors, the nonsingular M-tensors, the nonsingular H-tensors with positive diagonal entries, the strictly diagonally dominant tensors with positive diagonal entries, etc. As even-order symmetric PSD tensors are exactly even-order symmetric P$_0$-tensors, our definition of P$_0$-tensors, to some extent, can be regarded as an extension of PSD tensors for the odd-order case. Along with the basic properties of P- and P$_0$-tensors, the relationship among P$_0$-tensors and other extensions of PSD tensors are then discussed for comparison. Many structured tensors are also shown to be P- and P$_0$-tensors. As a theoretical application, the P-tensor complementarity problem is discussed and shown to possess a nonempty and compact solution set.
