In [[multilinear algebra]], a '''tensor decomposition''' is any scheme for expressing a [[Tensor (machine learning)|"data tensor"]] (M-way array) as a sequence of elementary operations acting on other, often simpler tensors.<ref name=VasilescuDSP>{{cite journal|first1=MAO|last1=Vasilescu|first2=D|last2=Terzopoulos|title=Multilinear (tensor) image synthesis, analysis, and recognition [exploratory dsp]|journal=IEEE Signal Processing Magazine|date=2007 |volume=24|issue=6|pages=118–123|doi=10.1109/MSP.2007.906024 |bibcode=2007ISPM...24R.118V }}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Kolda |first1=Tamara G. |last2=Bader |first2=Brett W. |date=2009-08-06 |title=Tensor Decompositions and Applications |url=http://epubs.siam.org/doi/10.1137/07070111X |journal=SIAM Review |language=en |volume=51 |issue=3 |pages=455–500 |doi=10.1137/07070111X |bibcode=2009SIAMR..51..455K |s2cid=16074195 |issn=0036-1445|url-access=subscription }}</ref> <ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Sidiropoulos |first1=Nicholas D. |last2=De Lathauwer |first2=Lieven |last3=Fu |first3=Xiao |last4=Huang |first4=Kejun |last5=Papalexakis |first5=Evangelos E. |last6=Faloutsos |first6=Christos |date=2017-07-01 |title=Tensor Decomposition for Signal Processing and Machine Learning |url=https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/7891546 |journal=IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing |volume=65 |issue=13 |pages=3551–3582 |doi=10.1109/TSP.2017.2690524 |arxiv=1607.01668 |bibcode=2017ITSP...65.3551S |s2cid=16321768 |issn=1053-587X}}</ref> is any scheme for expressing a "data tensor" (M-way array) as a sequence of elementary operations acting on other, often simpler tensors.

[[Tensors]] are generalizations of matrices to higher dimensions (or rather to higher orders, i.e. the higher number of dimensions) and can consequently be treated as multidimensional fields.<ref name="VasilescuDSP"/><ref>{{Cite arXiv |last1=Rabanser |first1=Stephan |last2=Shchur |first2=Oleksandr |last3=Günnemann |first3=Stephan |date=2017 |title=Introduction to Tensor Decompositions and their Applications in Machine Learning |class=stat.ML |eprint=1711.10781}}</ref>

==Notation==

This section introduces basic notations and operations that are widely used in the field.

==Introduction==

A multi-way graph with K perspectives is a collection of K matrices <math>{X_1,X_2.....X_K}</math> with dimensions I × J (where I, J are the number of nodes). This collection of matrices is naturally represented as a tensor X of size I × J × K. In order to avoid overloading the term “dimension”, we call an I × J × K tensor a three “mode” tensor, where “modes” are the numbers of indices used to index the tensor.
