Data Understanding Survey: Pursuing Improved Dataset Characterization Via Tensor-based Methods
Not on the map. Why?
Abstract (arXiv)
In the evolving domains of Machine Learning and Data Analytics, existing dataset characterization methods such as statistical, structural, and model-based analyses often fail to deliver the deep understanding and insights essential for innovation and explainability. This work surveys the current state-of-the-art conventional data analytic techniques and examines their limitations, and discusses a variety of tensor-based methods and how these may provide a more robust alternative to traditional statistical, structural, and model-based dataset characterization techniques. Through examples, we illustrate how tensor methods unveil nuanced data characteristics, offering enhanced interpretability and actionable intelligence. We advocate for the adoption of tensor-based characterization, promising a leap forward in understanding complex datasets and paving the way for intelligent, explainable data-driven discoveries.
