Abstract

The goal of the lecture series is to present the fundamentals of tensors in data analysis. It will cover tensor decompositions, exploring their theoretical properties, and their strengths and weaknesses. In addition, it will cover algorithms for parameter estimation, such as how to select which decomposition to use and how to interpret their results. All examples will be illustrated by R software packages.

Detailed outline General introduction Tensor - Objects, Manipulation, Operators Matrix decomposition – Uniqueness, SVD, QR, Cholesky decomposition Tensor rank decompositions – CP model- Properties, ALS algorithm, Diagnostic indices, Other algorithms Tucker model - Properties, HOSVD algorithm, Diagnostic indices, Other algorithms
