k_unfold-methods: Tensor k-mode Unfolding

Description

Unfolding of a tensor by mapping the kth mode (specified through parameter m), and all other modes onto the column space. This the most common type of unfolding operation for Tucker decompositions and its variants. Also known as k-mode matricization.

Usage

k_unfold(tnsr, m)
# S4 method for Tensor
k_unfold(tnsr, m = NULL)

Arguments

tnsr

the Tensor instance

m

the index of the mode to unfold on

Value

matrix with x@modes[m] rows and prod(x@modes[-m]) columns

Details

k_unfold(tnsr,m=NULL)
