Online Learning of Functional Principal Component Analysis for Multidimensional Functional Data

Read the original on arXiv Statistics ML →

The paper introduces an online framework for functional principal component analysis (FPCA) tailored to multidimensional functional data streams. It models functional principal components with tensor product splines, enforcing smoothness and orthonormality via a penalized approach on a Stiefel manifold. The authors present efficient Riemannian stochastic gradient descent and AdaGrad algorithms, along with a dynamic smoothing parameter tuning strategy based on rolling block validation, and provide asymptotic normality results and confidence intervals for the estimators.

Functional Gradient Descent with Adaptive Representations

arXiv:2606. 16926v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Functional optimization problems are typically solved by optimizing the parameters of a fixed representation, such as a neural network, resulting in highly nonconvex losses that complicate both training and theoretical analysis.

Adaptive Subspace Modeling With Functional Tucker Decomposition

The paper introduces a functional Tucker decomposition (FTD) that incorporates a mode-wise continuity constraint into tensor factorization, modeling continuous modes as functions in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS) without requiring a predefined basis. It preserves the multilinear subspace structure of the Tucker model and provides a reconstruction error bound for continuous modes, quantifying approximation quality when a subspace estimated on one domain is reused on another. The authors demonstrate the practical value of this subspace transfer on cross-domain classification tasks in hyperspectral imaging and multivariate time-series analysis.
