Given d different experimental variables with mi\u00a0choices per design variable 1 &lt;= i &lt;= d, the goal is to select k<sub>i<\/sub>\u00a0&lt;= m<sub>i<\/sub>\u00a0experiments per design variable. Previous work has related OED to the column subset selection problem by mapping the design variables to the columns of a matrix A. However, this approach is applicable only to the case d=1 in which the columns can be selected independently. We develop an extension to the case where the design variables have a multi-way structure. Our approach is to map the matrix A to a tensor and perform column subset selection on mode unfoldings of the tensor. We develop an algorithmic framework with three different algorithmic templates and randomized variants of these algorithms. We analyze the computational cost of all the proposed algorithms and also develop greedy versions to facilitate comparisons. Numerical experiments on four different applications\u2014time-dependent inverse problems, seismic tomography, X-ray tomography, and flow reconstruction\u2014demonstrate the effectiveness and scalability of our methods for structured experimental design in Bayesian inverse problems.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bio:\u00a0<\/strong>Hugo D\u00edaz-Norambuena is a postdoctoral\u00a0Researcher in Applied Mathematics at North Carolina State University, working with Prof. Arvind Saibaba.
