Dear all,

I recently posted a PR
<https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/pull/13003> which adds the
Tensor Sketch algorithm [1] to the Kernel Approximation module of
Scikit-learn.

I believe this new feature makes the Kernel Approximation module more
complete by providing a data-independent method for polynomial kernel
approximation, as the currently included methods either require access to
training data (Nystroem) or do not work with polynomial kernels. The
implementation has been tested to provide the same results as the original
Matlab implementation provided by the author of [1].

I would appreciate any feedback you can provide,

Regards,
