pyDNTNK is a software package for applying non-negative Hierarchical Tensor decompositions such as Tensor train and Hierarchical Tucker decompositons in a distributed fashion to large datasets. It is built on top of pyDNMFk. Tensor train (TT) and Hierarchical Tucker(HT) are state-of-the-art tensor network introduced for factorization of high-dimensional tensors. These methods transform the initial high-dimensional tensor in a network of low dimensional tensors that requires only a linear storage. Many real-world data,such as, density, temperature, population, probability, etc., are non-negative and for an easy interpretation, the algorithms preserving non-negativity are preferred. Here, we introduce the distributed non-negative Hierarchical tensor decomposition tools and demonstrate their scalability and the compression on synthetic and real world big datasets. pyDNTNK is developed as part of the R&D 100 award wining SmartTensors project.
