Sparse linear regression is one of the most basic questions in machine learning and statistics. Here, we are given as input a design matrix $X \in \mathbb{R}^{N \times d}$ and measurements or labels ${y} \in \mathbb{R}^N$ where ${y} = {X}…
We consider statistical models of estimation of a rank-one matrix (the spike) corrupted by an additive gaussian noise matrix in the sparse limit. In this limit the underlying hidden vector (that constructs the rank-one matrix) has a number…
We study least-squares trace regression when the parameter is the sum of a $r$-low-rank matrix and a $s$-sparse matrix and a fraction $\epsilon$ of the labels is corrupted. For subgaussian distributions and feature-dependent noise, we…
Opacity is a notion that describes an eavesdropper's inability to estimate a system's 'secret' states by observing the system's outputs. In this paper, we propose algorithms to compute the minimum sparse perturbation to be added to a system…
We assume the direct sum <A> o <B> for the signal subspace. As a result of post- measurement, a number of operational contexts presuppose the a priori knowledge of the LB -dimensional "interfering" subspace <B> and the goal is to estimate…

We consider the problem of learning a coefficient vector x_0\in R^N from noisy linear observation y=Ax_0+w \in R^n. In many contexts (ranging from model selection to image processing) it is desirable to construct a sparse estimator x'. In…
A distributed adaptive algorithm for estimation of sparse unknown parameters in the presence of nonGaussian noise is proposed in this paper based on normalized least mean fourth (NLMF) criterion. At the first step, local adaptive NLMF…

In this paper we develop a theory of matrix completion for the extreme case of noisy 1-bit observations. Instead of observing a subset of the real-valued entries of a matrix M, we obtain a small number of binary (1-bit) measurements…
Several key questions remain unanswered regarding overparameterized learning models. It is unclear how (stochastic) gradient descent finds solutions that generalize well, and in particular the role of small random initializations. Matrix…
