Summary: 
This paper proposes a novel signal estimation method that uses a tensor product expansion. When a bivariable function, which is expressed by two-dimensional matrix, is subjected to conventional tensor product expansion, two single variable functions are calculated by minimizing the mean square error between the input vector and its outer product. A tensor product expansion is useful for feature extraction and signal compression, however, it is difficult to separate global noise from other signals. This paper shows that global noise, which is observed in almost all input signals, can be estimated by using a tensor product expansion where absolute error is used as the error function.
