Abstract: Tensor networks are factorizations of very large tensors into networks of smaller tensors, it is shown to be a general extension of typical tensor decomposition to high dimensional case.  Recently, tensor networks are also increasingly finding applications in machine learning such as model compression or acceleration of computations. In this talk, I will firstly present the general concept of tensor network related research in machine learning, and then introduce our studies on fundamental tensor network model, algorithm, and applications. In particular, the tensor ring decomposition model is introduced and shown to be powerful and efficient representations. In addition, we will present recent progresses on how tensor networks can be employed to solve challenging problems in tensor completion, multi-task learning and multi-modal learning.
