Effective algorithms for tensor train decomposition via the UTV framework

Yuchao Wang, Maolin Che, Yimin Wei

The tensor-train (TT) decomposition is widely used to compress large tensors into a more compact form by exploiting their inherent data structures. A fundamental approach for constructing the TT format is the well-known TT-SVD method, which performs singular value decompositions (SVDs) on the successive matrices sequentially. But in practical applications, it is often unnecessary to compute full SVDs. In this article, we propose a new method called the TT-UTV. It utilizes the virtues of rank-revealing UTV decomposition to compute the TT format for a large-scale tensor, resulting in lower computational cost. We analyze the error bounds on the accuracy of these algorithms in both the URV and ULV cases and then recommend different sweep patterns for these two cases. Based on the theoretical analysis, we also formulate the rank-adaptive algorithms with prescribed accuracy. Numerical experiments on various applications, including magnetic resonance imaging data completion, are performed to illustrate their good performance in practice.

Positive Definite Tensors to Nonlinear Complementarity Problems

Maolin Che, Liqun Qi, Yimin Wei

The main purpose of this note is to investigate some kinds of nonlinear complementarity problems (NCP). For the structured tensors, such as, symmetric positive definite tensors and copositive tensors, we derive the existence theorems on a solution of these kinds of nonlinear complementarity problems. We prove that a unique solution of the NCP exists under the condition of diagonalizable tensors.

sparseGeoHOPCA: A Geometric Solution to Sparse Higher-Order PCA Without Covariance Estimation

Renjie Xu, Chong Wu, Maolin Che et al.

We propose sparseGeoHOPCA, a novel framework for sparse higher-order principal component analysis (SHOPCA) that introduces a geometric perspective to high-dimensional tensor decomposition. By unfolding the input tensor along each mode and reformulating the resulting subproblems as structured binary linear optimization problems, our method transforms the original nonconvex sparse objective into a tractable geometric form. This eliminates the need for explicit covariance estimation and iterative deflation, enabling significant gains in both computational efficiency and interpretability, particularly in high-dimensional and unbalanced data scenarios. We theoretically establish the equivalence between the geometric subproblems and the original SHOPCA formulation, and derive worst-case approximation error bounds based on classical PCA residuals, providing data-dependent performance guarantees. The proposed algorithm achieves a total computational complexity of $O\left(\sum_{n=1}^{N} (k_n^3 + J_n k_n^2)\right)$, which scales linearly with tensor size. Extensive experiments demonstrate that sparseGeoHOPCA accurately recovers sparse supports in synthetic settings, preserves classification performance under 10$\times$ compression, and achieves high-quality image reconstruction on ImageNet, highlighting its robustness and versatility.

Gradient Dynamic Approach to the Tensor Complementarity Problem

Xuezhong Wang, Maolin Che, Liqun Qi et al.

Nonlinear gradient dynamic approach for solving the tensor complementarity problem (TCP) is presented. Theoretical analysis shows that each of the defined dynamical system models ensures the convergence performance. The computer simulation results further substantiate that the considered dynamical system can solve the tensor complementarity problem (TCP).
