This paper introduces matrix product state (MPS) decomposition as a computational tool for extracting features of multidimensional data represented by higher-order tensors. Regardless of tensor order, MPS extracts its relevant features to the so-called core tensor of maximum order three which can be used for classification. Mainly based on a successive sequence of singular value decompositions (SVD), MPS is quite simple to implement without any recursive procedure needed for optimizing local tensors. Thus, it leads to substantial computational savings compared to other tensor feature extraction methods such as higher-order orthogonal iteration (HOOI) underlying the Tucker decomposition (TD). Benchmark results show that MPS can reduce significantly the feature space of data while achieving better classification performance compared to HOOI.

Big data consists of large multidimensional datasets that would often be difficult to analyze if working with the original tensor. There is a rising interest in the use of tensor decompositions for feature extraction due to the ability to extract necessary features from a large dimensional feature space. In this paper the matrix product state (MPS) decomposition is used for feature extraction of large tensors. The novelty of the paper is the introduction of a single core tensor obtained from the MPS that not only contains a significantly reduced feature space, but can perform classification with high accuracy without the need of feature selection methods.
There has been a surge of interest in the study of multidimensional arrays, known as tensors. This is due to the fact that many real-world datasets can be represented as tensors. For example, colour images are naturally third-order tensors, which include two indices (or modes) for their spatial index, and one mode for colour. Also, a colour video is a fourth-order tensor comprised of frames, which are colour images, and an additional temporal index. Traditional tools for matrix analysis does not generalise so well in tensor analysis. The main issue is that tensors prescribe a natural structure, which is destroyed when they are vectorised. Many mathematical techniques such as principal component analysis (PCA) or linear discriminant analysis (LDA) used extensively in machine learning rely on vectorised samples of data. Additionally, since tensors may often be large in dimensionality and size, vectorising these samples and applying them to PCA or LDA may not lead to the most efficient results, and the computational time of the algorithms can increase significantly. This problem is known as the so-called curse of dimensionality.
Tensor decompositions and their interesting properties are needed to circumvent this problem. The Tucker (TD) or CANDECOMP/PARAFAC (CP) decompositions have been predominantly used for tensor-based machine learning and signal processing. Both utilise common factor matrices and a core tensor, which retains the dimensionality of the original tensor. A main problem with these type of decompositions is that they essentially rely on an unbalanced matricization scheme, which potentially converts a tensor to a highly unbalanced matrix, where the row size is attributed to always one mode and the column size is the product of the remaining modes. This method is not optimal for problems that rely on retaining as much correlations within the data, which is very important for tensor-based machine learning and signal processing.
In this thesis, we are interested in utilising the matrix product state (MPS) decomposition. MPS has the property that it can retain much of the correlations within a tensor because it is based on a balanced matricization scheme, which consists of permutations of matrix sizes that can investigate the different correlations amongst all modes of a tensor. Several new algorithms are proposed for tensor object classification, which demonstrate an MPS-based approach as an efficient method against other tensor-based approaches. Additionally, new methods for colour image and video completion are introduced, which outperform the current state-of-the-art tensor completion algorithms.
Abstract Tensors are increasingly ubiquitous in various areas of applied mathematics and computing, and tensor decompositions are of practical significance and benefit many applications in data completion, image processing, computer vision, collaborative filtering, etc. Recently, Kilmer and Martin propose a new tensor factorization strategy, tensor singular value decomposition (t-svd), which extends the matrix singular value decomposition to tensors. However, computing t-svd for high dimensional tensors costs much computation and thus cannot efficiently handle large scale datasets. Motivated by advantage of quantum computation, in this paper, we present a quantum algorithm of t-svd for third-order tensors and then extend it to order-p tensors. We prove that our quantum t-svd algorithm for a third-order N dimensional tensor runs in time N polylog ( N ) if we do not recover classical information from the quantum output state. Moreover, we apply our quantum t-svd algorithm to context-aware multidimensional recommendation systems, where we just need to extract partial classical information from the quantum output state, thus achieving low time complexity.
In recent years, interest in expressing the success of neural networks to the quantum computing has increased significantly. Tensor network theory has become increasingly popular and widely used to simulate strongly entangled correlated systems. Matrix product state (MPS) is the well-designed class of tensor network states, which plays an important role in processing of quantum information. In this paper, we have shown that matrix product state as one-dimensional array of tensors can be used to classify classical and quantum data. We have performed binary classification of classical machine learning dataset Iris encoded in a quantum state. Further, we have investigated the performance by considering different parameters on the ibmqx4 quantum computer and proved that MPS circuits can be used to attain better accuracy. Further, the learning ability of MPS quantum classifier is tested to classify evapotranspiration (ETo) for Patiala meteorological station located in Northern Punjab (India), using three years of historical dataset (Agri). Furthermore, we have used different performance metrics of classification to measure its capability. Finally, the results are plotted and degree of correspondence among values of each sample is shown.
Machine learning and data mining algorithms are becoming increasingly important in analyzing large volume, multi-relational and multi--modal datasets, which are often conveniently represented as multiway arrays or tensors. It is therefore timely and valuable for the multidisciplinary research community to review tensor decompositions and tensor networks as emerging tools for large-scale data analysis and data mining. We provide the mathematical and graphical representations and interpretation of tensor networks, with the main focus on the Tucker and Tensor Train (TT) decompositions and their extensions or generalizations.
