Abstract

Approximating high order tensors by low Tucker-rank tensors have applications in psychometrics, chemometrics, computer vision, biomedical informatics, among others. Traditionally, solution methods for finding a low Tucker-rank approximation presume that the size of the core tensor is specified in advance, which may not be a realistic assumption in many applications. In this paper we propose a new computational model where the configuration and the size of the core become a part of the decisions to be optimized. Our approach is based on the so-called maximum block improvement method for non-convex block optimization. Numerical tests on various real data sets from gene expression analysis and image compression are reported, which show promising performances of the proposed algorithms.
