Projection pursuit for Tensor-Valued Observations

Description

Applies mode-wise projection pursuit to tensorial data with respect to the chosen measure of interestingness.

Usage

  tPP(x, nl = "pow3", eps = 1e-6, maxiter = 100)

Arguments

x	Numeric array of an order at least three. It is assumed that the last dimension corresponds to the sampling units.
nl	The chosen measure of interestingness/objective function. Current choices include pow3 (default) and skew, see the details below
eps	The convergence tolerance of the iterative algortihm.
maxiter	The maximum number of iterations.

Details

The observed tensors (arrays) X of size p_1 \times p_2 \times \ldots \times p_r measured on N units are standardized from each mode and then projected mode-wise onto the directions that maximize the L_2-norm of the vector of the values E[G(u_k^T X X^T u_k)] - E[G(c^2)], where G is the chosen objective function and c^2 obeys the chi-squared distribution with q degress of freedom. Currently the function allows the choices G(x) = x^2 (pow3) and G(x) = x \sqrt x (skew), which correspond roughly to the maximization of kurtosis and skewness, respectively. The algorithm is the multilinear extension of FastICA, where the names of the objective functions also come from.

Value

A list with class 'tbss', inheriting from class 'bss', containing the following components:

S	Array of the same size as x containing the estimated components.
W	List containing all the unmixing matrices.
iter	The numbers of iteration used per mode.
Xmu	The data location.
datatype	Character string with value "iid". Relevant for plot.tbss.

X <- tensorTransform(S, A1, 1)
X <- tensorTransform(X, A2, 2)
