In the first stage, we reformulate the problem of detecting changes in the basis matrix sequence of the projections as one of identifying discrete rank changes in a sequence of subspace ranks. This is achieved via an eigen-decomposition-based estimation procedure. In the second stage, we detect changes in the core tensor sequence and introduce a &#8220;Completion Algorithm&#8221; to handle core tensors of varying sizes across segments, enhancing the robustness of detection. The proposed method achieves computational efficiency through precise change point categorization and reduced redundancy. Theoretical guarantees include fast convergence rates of the estimated basis matrices and the consistency of the estimated number and locations of change points.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":5207,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"schedule":[5],"speaker-category":[6],"class_list":["post-5203","speaker","type-speaker","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","schedule-day-1","speaker-category-speakers"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Lixing Zhu | Beijing Normal University | China<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Professor Lixing Zhu is currently a Professor in the Department of Statistics at Beijing Normal University&#039;s School of Arts and Sciences.
