Unsupervised feature selection using Bayesian Tucker decomposition

In this paper, we proposed Bayesian Tucker decomposition (BTuD) in which residual is supposed to obey Gaussian distribution analogous to linear regression. Although we have proposed an algorithm to perform the proposed BTuD, the conventional higher-order orthogonal iteration can generate Tucker decomposition consistent with the present implementation. Using the proposed BTuD, we can perform unsupervised feature selection successfully applied to various synthetic datasets, global coupled maps with randomized coupling strength, and gene expression profiles. Thus we can conclude that our newly proposed unsupervised feature selection method is promising. In addition to this, BTuD based unsupervised FE is expected to coincide with TD based unsupervised FE that were previously proposed and successfully applied to a wide range of problems.
