A Muon-Accelerated Algorithm for Low Separation Rank Tensor Generalized Linear Models

Tensor Train (TT) decomposition is a powerful technique for analyzing high-dimensional data. Existing algorithms for computing TT decompositions can be categorized into two main types: conventional batch-based approaches and recursive online methods. In the context of streaming data, batch methods typically achieve higher reconstruction accuracy but often suffer from memory exhaustion, while online methods provide greater computational efficiency. In this work, we introduce Online TT-ALS (Alternating Least Squares), an algorithm that sequentially enforces orthogonality constraints. This approach allows for efficient and exact updates of the core tensor while maintaining high reconstruction accuracy. Theoretically, we prove that enforcing these orthogonal gauge constraints guarantees monotonic decrease of the local objective function and temporal smoothness. Computationally, our deterministic single-sweep update reduces the rank dependence from quadratic to linear, achieving an overall complexity of $\mathcal{O}(I^{n-1} r)$. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms existing online techniques not only in terms of mathematical approximation accuracy but also in human perception-based video quality metrics. Furthermore, compared to recent deep learning-based paradigms, our algebraic approach achieves speedups of several orders of magnitude. Consequently, our method exhibits high computational efficiency and is suitable for low-latency real-time processing applications.

We consider the recovery of low-multilinear-rank tensors from linear measurements and propose an adaptive block-weighted modewise Riemannian gradient descent method. The method combines memory-efficient modewise measurements with a normalized adaptive weighting strategy for the core and factor components of the Riemannian gradient. The weighting improves convergence without increasing the multilinear-rank bound of the search direction or the size of the reduced core used for retraction. Under the tensor restricted isometry property and a suitable initialization, we establish local linear convergence and derive sampling guarantees for sub-Gaussian and subsampled orthogonal with random sign (SORS) measurements. Numerical experiments on synthetic low-Tucker-rank tensors show that the proposed method reduces iteration counts and computational time while maintaining reliable recovery performance, especially near the recovery threshold and for structured SORS measurements.

Matrix-valued time series arise in a wide range of applications, such as spatio-temporal data from medical imaging and geophysics. Existing methods are mainly designed for static settings and lack adaptability to streaming and time-varying environments. Adaptive filtering techniques have also been largely limited to data with scalar or vector values, leaving adaptive forecasting for matrix-valued time series inadequately understood. To bridge these gaps, we develop an adaptive tensor regression framework that includes Matrix-on-Matrix (MoM) and Tensor-on-Matrix (ToM) formulations for streaming matrix-valued prediction. The two formulations differ in whether to directly model matrix-valued outputs or to exploit temporal structure via higher-order tensor representations. For the proposed tensor regression framework, we develop stochastic gradient descent (SGD) algorithms for online learning. We show that stacking multiple responses across time into higher-order tensors improves performance; in particular, the ToM achieves lower steady-state error and stronger denoising capability than MoM, motivating our focus on the ToM model. We further characterize the tracking behavior of SGD under time-varying dynamics. From a statistical perspective, we establish fixed-time recovery guarantees for ToM under general low-dimensional structures, including sparsity, low-rankness, and their joint sparselow-rank models.
