Tensor decomposition algorithms are essential for extracting meaningful latent variables and uncovering hidden structures in real-world data tensors. Unlike conventional deterministic tensor decomposition algorithms, randomized methods offer higher efficiency by reducing memory requirements and computational complexity. This paper proposes an efficient hardware architecture for a randomized tensor decomposition implemented on a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) using high-level synthesis (HLS). The proposed architecture integrates random projection, power iteration, and subspace approximation via QR decomposition to achieve low-rank approximation of multidimensional datasets. The proposed architecture utilizes the capabilities of reconfigurable systems to accelerate tensor computation. It includes three central units: (1) tensor times matrix chain (TTMc), (2) tensor unfolding unit, and (3) QR decomposition unit to implement a three-stage algorithm. Experimental results demonstrate that our FPGA design achieves up to 14.56 times speedup compared to the well-implemented tensor decomposition using software library Tensor Toolbox on an Intel i7-9700 CPU.

Furthermore, we utilize our hardware-based high-order singular value decomposition (HOSVD) accelerator for two real applications: background subtraction of dynamic video datasets and data compression. In both applications, our proposed design shows high efficiency regarding accuracy and computational time.
