Book excerpt: Tensors or multidimensional arrays are higher order generalizations of matrices. They are natural structures for expressing data that have inherent higher order structures. Tensor decompositions and Tensor approximations play an important role in learning those hidden structures. They have many applications in machine learning, statistical learning, data science, signal processing, neuroscience, and more. Canonical Polyadic Decomposition (CPD) is a tensor decomposition that decomposes a tensor to minimal number of summation of rank 1 tensors. While for a given tensor, Low-Rank Tensor Approximation (LRTA) aims at finding a new one whose rank is small and that is close to the given one. We study the generating polynomials for computing tensor decompositions and low-rank approximations for given tensors and propose methods that can compute tensor decompositions for generic tensors under certain rank conditions. For low-rank tensor approximation, the proposed method guarantees that the constructed tensor is a good enough low-rank approximation if the tensor is to be approximated is close enough to a low-rank one. The proof built on perturbation analysis is presented. When the rank is higher than the second dimension, we are not able to find the common zeros of generating polynomials directly. In this case, we need to use the quadratic equations that we get from those generating polynomials. We show that under certain conditions, we are able to find the tensor decompositions using standard linear algebra operations (i.e., solving linear systems, singular value decompositions, QR decompositions). Numerical examples and some comparisons are presented to show the performance of our algorithm. Multi-view learning is frequently used in data science. The pairwise correlation maximization is a classical approach for exploring the consensus of multiple views. Since the pairwise correlation is inherent for two views, the extensions to more views can be diversified and the intrinsic interconnections among views are generally lost. To address this issue, we propose to maximize the high-order tensor correlation. This can be formulated as a low-rank approximation problem with the high-order correlation tensor of multi-view data. We propose to use the generating polynomial method to efficiently solve the high-order correlation maximization problem of tensor canonical correlation analysis for multi-view learning. Numerical results on simulated data and two real multi-view data sets demonstrate that our proposed method not only consistently outperforms existing methods but also is efficient for large scale tensors.
