In this paper, we study a fast approximation method for {\it large-scale high-dimensional} sparse least-squares regression problem by exploiting the Johnson-Lindenstrauss (JL) transforms, which embed a set of high-dimensional vectors into a…
For any $n>1$ and $0<\varepsilon<1/2$, we show the existence of an $n^{O(1)}$-point subset $X$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$ such that any linear map from $(X,\ell_2)$ to $\ell_2^m$ with distortion at most $1+\varepsilon$ must have $m = \Omega(\min\{n,…
The \emph{Sparse Johnson-Lindenstrauss Transform} of Kane and Nelson (SODA 2012) provides a linear dimensionality-reducing map $A \in \mathbb{R}^{m \times u}$ in $\ell_2$ that preserves distances up to distortion of $1 + \varepsilon$ with…
The Johnson-Lindenstrauss Lemma (J-L Lemma) is a cornerstone of dimension reduction techniques. We study it in the one-bit context, namely we consider the unit sphere $ \mathbb S ^{N-1}$, with normalized geodesic metric, and map a finite…
We present a theoretical analysis of the approximation properties of convolutional architectures when applied to the modeling of temporal sequences. Specifically, we prove an approximation rate estimate (Jackson-type result) and an inverse…
In this article, we consider Poisson and Poisson convoluted geometric approximation to the sums of $n$ independent random variables under moment conditions. We use Stein's method to derive the approximation results in total variation…
New lower bounds on the total variation distance between the distribution of a sum of independent Bernoulli random variables and the Poisson random variable (with the same mean) are derived via the Chen-Stein method. The new bounds rely on…
In this paper we make a novel use of the Johnson-Lindenstrauss Lemma. The Lemma has an existential form saying that there exists a JL transformation $f$ of the data points into lower dimensional space such that all of them fall into…
Random events in space and time often exhibit a locally dependent structure. When the events are very rare and dependent structure is not too complicated, various studies in the literature have shown that Poisson and compound Poisson…
Initially motivated by the study of the non-asymptotic properties of non-parametric tests based on permutation methods, concentration inequalities for uniformly permuted sums have been largely studied in the literature. Recently, Delyon et…
A Bayesian nonparametric method of James, Lijoi \& Prunster (2009) used to predict future values of observations from normalized random measures with independent increments is modified to a class of models based on negative binomial…

Assuming a $q$-variant of the prime $k$-tuple conjecture uniformly, we compute mixed moments of the number of primes in disjoint short intervals and progressions, respectively. This involves estimating the mean of singular series along…
In this short note, we prove a version of the Johnson-Lindenstrauss flattening Lemma for point sets taking values in discrete subgroups. More precisely, given $d,\lambda_0,N_0\in\mathbb{N}$ and $\epsilon\in \left(0,\frac{1}{2}\right)$…
Concentration inequalities, a major tool in probability theory, quantify how much a random variable deviates from a certain quantity. This paper proposes a systematic convex optimization approach to studying and generating concentration…
This paper analyzes circulant Johnson-Lindenstrauss (JL) embeddings which, as an important class of structured random JL embeddings, are formed by randomizing the column signs of a circulant matrix generated by a random vector. With the…
This paper considers the entropy of the sum of (possibly dependent and non-identically distributed) Bernoulli random variables. Upper bounds on the error that follows from an approximation of this entropy by the entropy of a Poisson random…
In the recent paper [Jin, Kolda & Ward, arXiv:1909.04801], it is proved that the Kronecker fast Johnson-Lindenstrauss transform (KFJLT) is, in fact, a Johnson-Lindenstrauss transform, which had previously only been conjectured. In this…
Spatial random permutations were originally studied due to their connections to Bose-Einstein condensation, but they possess many interesting properties of their own. For random permutations of a regular lattice with periodic boundary…
Dimensionality reduction-based dictionary learning methods in the literature have often used iterative random projections. The dimensionality of such a random projection matrix is a random number that might not lead to a separable subspace…
