Fast Learnings of Coupled Nonnegative Tensor Decomposition Using Optimal Gradient and Low-rank Approximation
share
Nonnegative tensor decomposition has been widely applied in signal processing and neuroscience, etc. When it comes to group analysis of multi-block tensors, traditional tensor decomposition is insufficient to utilize the shared/similar information among tensors. In this study, we propose a coupled nonnegative CANDECOMP/PARAFAC decomposition algorithm optimized by the alternating proximal gradient method (CoNCPDAPG), which is capable of a simultaneous decomposition of tensors from different samples that are partially linked and a simultaneous extraction of common components, individual components and core tensors. Due to the low optimization efficiency brought by the nonnegative constraint and the high-dimensional nature of the data, we further propose the lraCoNCPD-APG algorithm by combining low-rank approximation and the proposed CoNCPD-APG method. When processing multi-block large-scale tensors, the proposed lraCoNCPD-APG algorithm can greatly reduce the computational load without compromising the decomposition quality. Experiment results of coupled nonnegative tensor decomposition problems designed for synthetic data, real-world face images and event-related potential data demonstrate the practicability and superiority of the proposed algorithms.
