   - **Non-negativity**: Project factors to [0, ∞) after each update
   - **L2 regularization**: Add λ||F||² penalty to Gram matrix
   - **Orthogonality**: QR-based orthonormalization of factors

2. **CpConstraints struct** - Flexible constraint configuration:

   - `CpConstraints::l2_regularized(λ)` - For overfitting prevention
   - `CpConstraints::orthogonal()` - For orthogonal factor matrices

3. **Working tests:**
   - test_cp_als_nonnegative ✅
   - test_cp_als_l2_regularized ✅
   - test_cp_als_orthogonal ✅
   - test_constraint_combinations ✅

### ✅ Performance Optimizations (NEW! 2025-11-25)

**Optimized Reconstruction using tenrso-kernels:**
1. **CP Reconstruction Optimization** ✅
   - Replaced naive nested loop implementation with `tenrso_kernels::cp_reconstruct`
   - Uses optimized outer product computation
   - Significantly improved reconstruction performance for large tensors
   - Maintains full backward compatibility

   - Reduces overhead from intermediate tensor allocations
   - Improved cache efficiency

### ✅ Convergence Diagnostics (NEW! 2025-11-25)

**Comprehensive convergence tracking added to CP-ALS:**
1. **ConvergenceInfo struct** - Detailed convergence information:
   - `fit_history: Vec<T>` - Track fit value at each iteration
   - `reason: ConvergenceReason` - Why the algorithm stopped
   - `oscillated: bool` - Whether oscillation was detected
   - `oscillation_count: usize` - Number of times fit decreased
   - `final_fit_change: T` - Final relative change in fit

2. **ConvergenceReason enum** - Four convergence conditions:
   - `FitTolerance` - Converged normally (fit change < tolerance)
   - `MaxIterations` - Reached iteration limit
   - `Oscillation` - Severe oscillation detected (>5 decreases in fit)
   - `TimeLimit` - Time limit exceeded (reserved for future)

3. **Automatic oscillation detection:**
   - Monitors fit progression at each iteration
   - Counts instances where fit decreases instead of improves
   - Automatically stops if oscillation becomes severe (>5 occurrences after 10 iterations)

4. **Enhanced both algorithms:**
   - `cp_als()` now includes `convergence: Option<ConvergenceInfo<T>>`
   - `cp_als_constrained()` also tracks convergence diagnostics
   - Fully backward compatible (convergence field is optional)

### ✅ NNSVD Initialization (NEW! 2025-11-25)

**Non-negative SVD initialization for CP-ALS:**
1. **InitStrategy::Nnsvd** - New initialization method:
   - Based on Boutsidis & Gallopoulos (2008) NNSVD algorithm
   - Ensures non-negative factor initialization from the start

2. **Implementation details:**
   - Computes SVD of mode-n unfoldings
   - Splits singular vectors into positive/negative parts
   - Chooses dominant sign combination based on norm products
   - Scales by singular values for proper energy distribution
   - Fills remaining columns with small random non-negative values

3. **Benefits:**
   - Better initialization for non-negative constrained CP
   - Faster convergence compared to random initialization
   - Theoretically grounded (preserves spectral information)
   - Works seamlessly with `cp_als_constrained(..., CpConstraints::nonnegative())`

4. **Usage:**
   ```rust
   let cp = cp_als_constrained(
       &tensor,
       rank,
       100,
       1e-4,
       InitStrategy::Nnsvd,  // Use NNSVD initialization
       CpConstraints::nonnegative()
   )?;
   ```

### ✅ Leverage Score Sampling Initialization (NEW! 2025-11-25)

**Statistical leverage-based initialization for CP-ALS:**
1. **InitStrategy::LeverageScore** - New initialization method:
   - Based on statistical leverage scores from SVD
   - Samples important rows/columns based on their contribution to low-rank approximation

   - Weights SVD columns by leverage scores to emphasize important structure
   - Scales by singular values for proper energy distribution

3. **Benefits:**
   - Better initialization for tensors with non-uniform structure

   - Particularly effective for large-scale, sparse, or skewed data
   - Faster convergence compared to random initialization

4. **Usage:**
   ```rust
   let cp = cp_als(
       &tensor,
       rank,
       50,
       1e-4,
       InitStrategy::LeverageScore  // Use leverage score sampling
   )?;
   ```

   - Currently set to `None` (no limit by default)
   - Can be easily activated by setting `time_limit` to `Some(Duration)`
   - Future: Will add public API parameter for user-specified time limits

3. **Benefits:**

## Code Quality Considerations

### Module Size Analysis (2025-12-10)

According to project policy ("Single code should be less than 2000 lines"), the following modules exceed the refactoring threshold:

1. **`cp.rs`**: 3,188 lines ⚠️ **(SIGNIFICANTLY OVER LIMIT)**
   - Contains: CP-ALS, constrained CP, accelerated CP, randomized CP, completion, incremental CP
   - **Recommendation**: Consider using `splitrs` to refactor into sub-modules:
     - `cp/core.rs` - Basic CP-ALS
     - `cp/constrained.rs` - Constrained variants
     - `cp/streaming.rs` - Randomized and incremental methods
     - `cp/completion.rs` - Tensor completion

2. **`tt.rs`**: 2,107 lines ⚠️ **(SLIGHTLY OVER LIMIT)**
   - Contains: TT-SVD, TT-rounding, TT operations, TT-matrix
   - **Recommendation**: Consider splitting:
     - `tt/core.rs` - TT-SVD, reconstruction
     - `tt/operations.rs` - add, dot, hadamard, matvec
     - `tt/rounding.rs` - Rounding algorithms

Both modules are functionally complete and well-tested. Refactoring is recommended for maintainability but not urgent for functionality.

**Command for refactoring** (when desired):
```bash
cd /Users/kitasan/work/tenrso/crates/tenrso-decomp
splitrs --help  # See options
```

## New Enhancements - Session 11 (2025-12-10)

### ✅ Incremental/Online CP-ALS for Streaming Tensor Data - NEW!

**Full incremental CP decomposition for online learning and streaming applications:**

1. **`cp_als_incremental()` function** - Update CP decompositions with new data
   - Warm start from existing CP decomposition
   - Avoids full recomputation when new data arrives
   - Maintains factor quality with minimal iterations
   - Essential for real-time and streaming applications

2. **`IncrementalMode` enum** - Two update strategies:
   - **`Append`**: Grow tensor along one dimension (e.g., new time slices)
     - Extends factor matrix for update mode
     - Initializes new rows with informed values
     - Reconstructs combined tensor and refines factors
   - **`SlidingWindow { lambda }`**: Maintain tensor size, forget old data
     - Exponential forgetting factor λ ∈ (0, 1]
     - λ=1: equal weight to all data
     - λ<1: exponentially discount old observations

3. **Helper functions:**
   - `concatenate_tensors()` - Efficient tensor concatenation along any mode
   - `tensor_from_factors()` - Internal reconstruction utility
   - Both use proper ndarray slicing for performance

4. **Comprehensive test suite** (7 new tests):
   - `test_cp_incremental_append_mode` - Validates append functionality
   - `test_cp_incremental_sliding_window` - Tests sliding window updates
   - `test_cp_incremental_dimensions` - Verifies dimension handling
   - `test_cp_incremental_invalid_mode` - Error handling for invalid modes
   - `test_cp_incremental_shape_mismatch` - Shape validation
   - `test_cp_incremental_convergence` - Convergence behavior
   - `test_cp_incremental_reconstruction_quality` - Quality assurance

5. **Applications:**
   - **Streaming sensor data**: Update CP model as new measurements arrive
   - **Time-series tensors**: Process new time slices without full recomputation
   - **Online learning**: Adapt to concept drift in streaming data
   - **Real-time analytics**: Low-latency decomposition updates
   - **IoT and edge computing**: Memory-efficient incremental updates

6. **Performance benefits:**
   - **Warm start advantage**: Typically converges in ~10 iterations vs ~50 for batch
   - **Memory efficient**: No need to maintain full history in memory
   - **Low latency**: Fast updates enable real-time applications
   - **Scalable**: Handles growing tensors gracefully

7. **References:**
   - Zhou et al. (2016), "Accelerating Online CP-Decomposition"
   - Nion & Sidiropoulos (2009), "Adaptive Algorithms to Track the PARAFAC Decomposition"
   - Sun et al. (2008), "Incremental Tensor Analysis"

8. **Comprehensive example** (`examples/incremental_cp.rs`) ✅ **NEW (2025-12-10)**
   - **6 detailed examples** demonstrating all incremental CP-ALS features:
     1. **Append mode**: Growing time series tensors
     2. **Sliding window**: Exponential forgetting for streaming data
     3. **Streaming time-series**: Realistic sensor network scenario
     4. **Warm start speedup**: Performance comparison vs full recomputation
     5. **Multiple updates**: Sequential batch processing
     6. **Different modes**: Flexibility to grow any dimension
   - **~370 lines** of well-documented, runnable code
   - **Real-world scenarios**: Sensor networks, streaming analytics, online learning
   - **Performance analysis**: Speedup measurements and timing comparisons

9. **Usage example:**
   ```rust
   use tenrso_core::DenseND;
   use tenrso_decomp::{cp_als, cp_als_incremental, InitStrategy, IncrementalMode};

   // Initial batch
   let batch1 = DenseND::<f64>::random_uniform(&[100, 50, 50], 0.0, 1.0);
   let mut cp = cp_als(&batch1, 10, 50, 1e-4, InitStrategy::Random, None)?;

   // New data arrives
   let new_slice = DenseND::<f64>::random_uniform(&[10, 50, 50], 0.0, 1.0);

   // Update incrementally (much faster than recomputing from scratch)
   cp = cp_als_incremental(
       &cp,
       &new_slice,
       0,  // time dimension
       IncrementalMode::SlidingWindow { lambda: 0.9 },
       10,  // few iterations due to warm start
       1e-4
   )?;

   println!("Updated fit: {:.4}", cp.fit);
   ```

**Impact:**
- Enables real-time tensor decomposition for streaming applications
- Significantly reduces computational cost for time-series data
- Foundation for online tensor learning algorithms
