Through decorrelation and centralization, a separable covariance structure is employed to pool sample information from different tensor modes to enhance the power of the test.

Besides the tensor framework, SERA is also generally applicable to a wide range of two-sample large-scale inference problems with sparsity structures, and is of independent interest.
