Summary The tensor SVD (t‐SVD) for third‐order tensors, previously proposed in the literature, has been applied successfully in many fields, such as computed tomography, facial recognition, and video completion. In this paper, we propose a method that extends a well‐known randomized matrix method to the t‐SVD. This method can produce a factorization with similar properties to the t‐SVD, but it is more computationally efficient on very large data sets. We present details of the algorithms and theoretical results and provide numerical results that show the promise of our approach for compressing and analyzing image‐based data sets. We also present an improved analysis of the randomized and simultaneous iteration for matrices, which may be of independent interest to the scientific community. We also use these new results to address the convergence properties of the new and randomized tensor method as well.

We present a randomized singular value decomposition (rSVD) method for the purposes of lossless compression, reconstruction, classification, and target detection with hyperspectral (HSI) data. Recent work in low-rank matrix approximations obtained from random projections suggests that these approximations are well suited for randomized dimensionality reduction. Approximation errors for the rSVD are evaluated on HSI, and comparisons are made to deterministic techniques and as well as to other randomized low-rank matrix approximation methods involving compressive principal component analysis. Numerical tests on real HSI data suggest that the method is promising and is particularly effective for HSI data interrogation.
