BTTR is a deflation-based method in which the maximally correlated representations of X and Y are extracted via ACE/ACCoS (Automatic Component Extraction / Automatic Correlated Component Selection) at each iteration. Therefore, BTTR inherits the advantages of the proposed ACE/ACCoS and does not require one to set the model parameters manually. This provides BTTR with an additional important property: the ability to model complex data in which the optimal Multilinear Rank (MTR) is not necessarily stable across sequential decompositions.
