An introduction to the concept of tensors and tensor decomposition in the context of numerical linear algebra for data exploration. Tensors are multi-dimensional arrays that can represent data organized according to more than two categories. The document focuses on three-dimensional arrays and discusses basic tensor concepts, higher order singular value decomposition (hosvd), and rank-(r1, …, rn) tensor factorization. It also covers the unfolding and folding operations and their relationship to matrix multiplication.

Note that 2-mode multiplication of a matrix by V is equivalent to matrix multiplication by V T^ from the right, A × 2 V = AV T^.

Then unfolding along the third mode gives

A˜ = argmin (^) Aˆ

More specifically, A˜ can be expressed as follows: A˜ = C × 1 U (1)^ × 2 U (2)^ × · · · ×N U (N^ ), (2)
where U (n)^ ∈ IRIn×Rn^ has orthonormal columns for n = 1, · · · , N.
||A − A˜||^2 = ||A||^2 − 2 < A, A >˜ +|| A˜||^2. Based on the definition of the inner product, we have
< A, A >˜ = < A, C × 1 U (1)^ × 2 U (2)^ × · · · ×N U (N^ )^ > = < A × 1 (U (1))T^ × 2 (U (2))T^ × · · · ×N (U (N^ ))T^ , C > = ||C||^2.
Thus, ||A − A˜||^2 = ||A||^2 − ||C||^2.
