In this paper, we study the problems of detection and recovery of hidden submatrices with elevated means inside a large Gaussian random matrix. We consider two different structures for the planted submatrices. In the first model, the…
In this work, we consider the problem of recovery a planted $k$-densest sub-hypergraph on $d$-uniform hypergraphs. This fundamental problem appears in different contexts, e.g., community detection, average-case complexity, and neuroscience…
Given a random binary picture $P_n$ of size $n$, i.e., an $n\times n$ grid filled with zeros and ones uniformly at random, when is it possible to reconstruct $P_n$ from its $k$-deck, i.e., the multiset of all its $k\times k$ subgrids? We…
We consider the problem of private information retrieval (PIR) of a single message out of $K$ messages from $N$ non-colluding and non-replicated databases. Different from the majority of the existing literature, which considers the case of…
In the noisy population recovery problem of Dvir et al., the goal is to learn an unknown distribution $f$ on binary strings of length $n$ from noisy samples. For some parameter $\mu \in [0,1]$, a noisy sample is generated by flipping each…
Revealing underlying relations between nodes in a network is one of the most important tasks in network analysis. Using tools and techniques from a variety of disciplines, many community recovery methods have been developed for different…

The population recovery problem is a basic problem in noisy unsupervised learning that has attracted significant research attention in recent years [WY12,DRWY12, MS13, BIMP13, LZ15,DST16]. A number of different variants of this problem have…
We present an algorithm for the recovery of a matrix $\mathbb{M}$ % (non-singular $\in $ $\mathbb{C}^{N\times N}$) by only being aware of two of its powers, $\mathbb{M}_{k_{1}}:=\mathbb{M}^{k_{1}}$ and $\mathbb{M}%…
In this paper we revisit the kernel density estimation problem: given a kernel $K(x, y)$ and a dataset of $n$ points in high dimensional Euclidean space, prepare a data structure that can quickly output, given a query $q$, a…
We consider the task of learning latent community structure from multiple correlated networks. First, we study the problem of learning the latent vertex correspondence between two edge-correlated stochastic block models, focusing on the…
This paper produces an efficient Semidefinite Programming (SDP) solution for community detection that incorporates non-graph data, which in this context is known as side information. SDP is an efficient solution for standard community…
In the pooled data problem, the goal is to identify the categories associated with a large collection of items via a sequence of pooled tests. Each pooled test reveals the number of items in the pool belonging to each category. A prominent…
Motivated by applications to group synchronization and quadratic assignment on random data, we study a general problem of Bayesian inference of an unknown ``signal'' belonging to a high-dimensional compact group, given noisy pairwise…
We give a quasipolynomial time algorithm for the graph matching problem (also known as noisy or robust graph isomorphism) on correlated random graphs. Specifically, for every $\gamma>0$, we give a $n^{O(\log n)}$ time algorithm that given a…
For two correlated graphs which are independently sub-sampled from a common Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph $\mathbf{G}(n, p)$, we wish to recover their \emph{latent} vertex matching from the observation of these two graphs \emph{without labels}.…
In this paper we consider asymptotically exact support recovery in the context of high dimensional and sparse Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA). Our main results describe four regimes of interest based on information theoretic and…
The matrix recovery (completion) problem, a central problem in data science and theoretical computer science, is to recover a matrix $A$ from a relatively small sample of entries. While such a task is impossible in general, it has been…
