Riemannian Optimization on Tree Tensor Networks with Application in Machine Learning

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

The paper presents a formal analysis of the quotient geometry of tree tensor networks (TTNs) and introduces efficient first- and second-order optimization algorithms that leverage this geometry. It also develops a backpropagation method for training TTNs in a kernel learning context. Numerical experiments on a digit classification task demonstrate a tradeoff between two horizontal distributions: one provides clearer geometric insights, while the other yields more efficient algorithms.

Quantum Tensor Network Learning with DMRG

The paper introduces a quantum tensor network learning framework that employs matrix product states (MPS) as a machine‑learning architecture, adding a global normalization condition to interpret the MPS as a quantum state. It compares two optimization strategies—gradient descent and a DMRG‑adapted method—to identify locally optimal tensors and evaluates their effectiveness.
