Singular value decompositions of third-order reduced biquaternion tensors

Abstract

In this paper, we introduce the applications of third-order reduced biquaternion tensors in color video processing. We first develop algorithms for computing the singular value decomposition (SVD) of a third-order reduced biquaternion tensor via a new Ht-product. As theoretical applications, we define the Moore-Penrose inverse of a third-order reduced biquaternion tensor and develop its characterizations. In addition, we discuss the general (or Hermitian) solutions to reduced biquaternion tensor equation $\mathcal{A}\ast_{Ht} \mathcal{X}=\mathcal{B}$ as well as its least-square solution. Finally, we compress the color video by this SVD, and the experimental data shows that our method is faster than the compared scheme.
