Unsupervised Multiway Data Analysis: A Literature Survey

Unsupervised Multiway Data Analysis: A Literature Survey Evrim Acar Bülent Yener Multiway data analysis captures multilinear structures in higher-order datasets, where data have more than two modes. Standard two-way methods commonly applied on matrices often fail to find the underlying structures in multiway ar- rays. With increasing number of application areas, multiway data analysis has become popular as an exploratory analy- sis tool. We provide a review of significant contributions in literature on multiway models, algorithms as well as their applications in diverse disciplines including chemometrics, neuroscience, computer vision, and social network analysis.
