Abstract: We present the R package tensorBF, which is the first R package providing Bayesian factorization of a tensor. Our package implements a generative model that automatically identifies the number of factors needed to explain the tensor, over- coming a key limitation of traditional tensor factorizations. We also recommend best practices when using tensor factorizations for both, explorative and predictive analysis with an example application on drug response dataset. The package also implements tools related to the normalization of data, informative noise priors and visualisation. Conclusions: The tensorBF package allows Bayesian factorization of tensor datasets in the R statistical environment and is made freely available at https://cran.r-project.org/package=tensorBF
