Online Tensor Inference

Recent technological advances have led to contemporary applications that demand real-time processing and analysis of sequentially arriving tensor data. Traditional offline learning, involving the storage and utilization of all data in each computational iteration, becomes impractical for high-dimensional tensor data due to its voluminous size. Furthermore, existing low-rank tensor methods lack the capability for statistical inference in an online fashion, which is essential for real-time predictions and informed decision-making. This paper addresses these challenges by introducing a novel online inference framework for low-rank tensor learning. Our approach employs Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) to enable efficient real-time data processing without extensive memory requirements, thereby significantly reducing computational demands. We establish a non-asymptotic convergence result for the online low-rank SGD estimator, nearly matches the minimax optimal rate of estimation error in offline models that store all historical data. Building upon this foundation, we propose a simple yet powerful online debiasing approach for sequential statistical inference in low-rank tensor learning. The entire online procedure, covering both estimation and inference, eliminates the need for data splitting or storing historical data, making it suitable for on-the-fly hypothesis testing. Given the sequential nature of our data collection, traditional analyses relying on offline methods and sample splitting are inadequate. In our analysis, we control the sum of constructed super-martingales to ensure estimates along the entire solution path remain within the benign region. Additionally, a novel spectral representation tool is employed to address statistical dependencies among iterative estimates, establishing the desired asymptotic normality.
