Second-Generation Wavelet-inspired Tensor Product with Applications in Hyperspectral Imaging

preprint2026arXivOpen access

Abstract

This paper introduces the ww-product, a novel wavelet-based tensor multiplication scheme leveraging second-generation wavelet transforms to achieve linear transformation complexity while preserving essential algebraic properties. The ww-product outperforms existing tensor multiplication approaches by enabling fast and numerically stable tensor decompositions by proposing ``ww-svd'' and its sparse variant ``sp-ww-svd'', for efficient low-rank approximations with significantly reduced computational costs. Experiments on low-rank hyperspectral image reconstruction demonstrate up to a 92.2192.21 times speedup compared to state-of-the-art ``tt-svd'', with comparable PSNR and SSIM metrics. We discuss the Moore-Penrose inverse of tensors based on the ww-product and examine its essential properties. Numerical examples are provided to support the theoretical results. Then, hyperspectral image deblurring experiments demonstrate up to 27.8827.88 times speedup with improved image quality. In particular, the ww-product and the sp-ww-product exhibit exponentially increasing acceleration with the decomposition level compared to the traditional approach of the tt-product. This work provides a scalable framework for multidimensional data analysis, with future research directions including adaptive wavelet designs, higher-order tensor extensions, and real-time implementations.
