  Due to the explosive growth of large-scale data sets, tensors have been a
vital tool to analyze and process high-dimensional data. Different from the
matrix case, tensor decomposition has been defined in various formats, which
can be further used to define the best low-rank approximation of a tensor to
significantly reduce the dimensionality for signal compression and recovery. In
this paper, we consider the low-rank tensor recovery problem when the tubal
rank of the underlying tensor is given or estimated a priori. We propose a
novel class of iterative singular tube hard thresholding algorithms for tensor
recovery based on the low-tubal-rank tensor approximation, including basic,
accelerated deterministic and stochastic versions. Convergence guarantees are
provided along with the special case when the measurements are linear.
Numerical experiments on tensor compressive sensing and color image inpainting
are conducted to demonstrate convergence and computational efficiency in
practice.
