This research paper introduces a novel approach to network modeling by transforming the adjacency matrix into a functional adjacency tensor, incorporating an additional dimension for function representation. The authors use Tucker functional decomposition to analyze the network’s community structure while regularizing the basis matrices to ensure symmetry. To handle irregular observations of the functional edges, they develop a model inference method that solves a tensor completion problem optimized by a Riemann conjugate gradient descent algorithm. The proposed model is evaluated using simulation data and real-world metro system data from Hong Kong and Singapore.

This paper creates a new way to understand networks by thinking about functions instead of just connections between things. They turn the normal network graph into something with extra dimensions that show how functions relate to each other. This helps them identify groups within the network that are related in certain ways. To deal with missing information, they use a special technique called tensor completion. The results are tested using pretend data and real-world metro system data from Hong Kong and Singapore.
