Such an approximate projection enables, e.g., to compute gradient-related directions in the tangent cone, as required by algorithms aiming at minimizing a continuously differentiable function on the variety, a problem appearing notably in tensor completion. A numerical experiment is presented which indicates that, in practice, the angle condition satisfied by the proposed approximate projection is better than both the one satisfied by the approximate projection introduced by Kutschan and the proven theoretical bound.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2306.13360v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2306.13360v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"an-approximate-projection-onto-the-tangent","repo_url":"https://github.com/golikier/approxprojtangentconettvariety","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
