For matrices, i.e. 2-tensors, such a representation can be obtained via the singular value decomposition which allows to compute the best rank $k$ approximations. For $t$-tensors with $t>2$ many generalizations of the singular value decomposition have been proposed to obtain low tensor rank decompositions. In this paper we will present a different approach which is based on best subspace approximations, which present an alternative generalization of the singular value decomposition to tensors.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2008-05-27T21:15:22.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "15A18", "15A69", "65D15", "65H10", "65K05" ], "keywords": [ "best subspace tensor approximations", "singular value decomposition", "low tensor rank decompositions", "best subspace approximations", "genomic data analysis" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 12, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2008arXiv0805.4220F" } } }
