CS Colloquium - "Learning Sparse Dependence Structure in Complex-Valued Tensor Data"

Friday, September 18, 2026 3:30pm to 4:30pm
Schaeffer Hall
Complex-valued tensor data arise in signal processing and neuroscience. Learn more about the method using local field potential recordings, where sparse separable factor analysis (SSFA) captures dependence across brain region, frequency, and time and supports reconstruction of missing signals
