Nonnegative PARAFAC2: a flexible coupling approach

arXiv.org Machine Learning

Modeling variability in tensor decomposition methods is one of the challenges of source separation. One possible solution to account for variations from one data set to another, jointly analysed, is to resort to the PARAF AC2 model. However, so far imposing constraints on the mode with variability has not been possible. In the following manuscript, a relaxation of the PARAF AC2 model is introduced, that allows for imposing nonnegativity constraints on the varying mode. An algorithm to compute the proposed flexible PARAF AC2 model is derived, and its performance is studied on both synthetic and chemometrics data.
