An Efficient Tensor Completion Method Combining Matrix Factorization and Smoothness

In this paper, the low-complexity tensor completion (LTC) scheme is proposed to improve the efficiency of tensor completion. On one hand, the matrix factorization model is established for complexity reduction, which adopts the matrix factorization into the model of low-rank tensor completion. On the other hand, we introduce the smoothness by total variation regularization and framelet regularization to guarantee the completion performance. Accordingly, given the proposed smooth matrix factorization (SMF) model, an alternating direction method of multiple(ADMM-) based solution is further proposed to realize the efficient and effective tensor completion. Additionally, we employ a novel tensor initialization approach to accelerate convergence speed. Finally, simulation results are presented to confirm the system gain of the proposed LTC scheme in both efficiency and effectiveness.
