This work presents a fast and non-convex algorithm for robust subspace recovery. The data sets considered include inliers drawn around a low-dimensional subspace of a higher dimensional ambient space, and a possibly large portion of…
Matrix-vector multiplication is one of the most fundamental computing primitives. Given a matrix $A\in\mathbb{F}^{N\times N}$ and a vector $b$, it is known that in the worst case $\Theta(N^2)$ operations over $\mathbb{F}$ are needed to…
In this article, matrix and vector formalisms for Lorentz transformations in time ($t$) and two space dimensions ($x$ and $y$) are developed and discussed. Lorentz transformations conserve the squared interval $t^2 - x^2 - y^2$. Examples of…
We give an algorithm to compute a one-dimensional shape-constrained function that best fits given data in weighted-$L_{\infty}$ norm. We give a single algorithm that works for a variety of commonly studied shape constraints including…

We present a theory for Euclidean dimensionality reduction with subgaussian matrices which unifies several restricted isometry property and Johnson-Lindenstrauss type results obtained earlier for specific data sets. In particular, we…

Metric embeddings into structured spaces, particularly hierarchically well-separated trees (HSTs), are a fundamental tool in the design of online algorithms. In the classical online embedding setting, points arrive sequentially and must be…
Many loss functions in representation learning are invariant under a continuous symmetry transformation. For example, the loss function of word embeddings (Mikolov et al., 2013) remains unchanged if we simultaneously rotate all word and…
Matrices with the structures of Toeplitz, Hankel, Vandermonde and Cauchy types are omnipresent in modern computation. The four classes have distinct features, but in 1990 we showed that Vandermonde and Hankel multipliers transform all these…
Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a compact $d$-dimensional submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^N$ with reach $\tau$ and volume $V_{\mathcal M}$. Fix $\epsilon \in (0,1)$. In this paper we prove that a nonlinear function $f: \mathbb{R}^N \rightarrow…
We present a fast algorithm for the subset convolution problem: given functions f and g defined on the lattice of subsets of an n-element set N, compute their subset convolution f*g, defined for all S\subseteq N by (f * g)(S) = \sum_{T…
We study the design of embeddings into Euclidean space with outliers. Given a metric space $(X,d)$ and an integer $k$, the goal is to embed all but $k$ points in $X$ (called the ``outliers") into $\ell_2$ with the smallest possible…
We present a new algorithm for finding a near optimal low-rank approximation of a matrix $A$ in $O(nnz(A))$ time. Our method is based on a recursive sampling scheme for computing a representative subset of $A$'s columns, which is then used…
Spectral embedding based on the Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) is a widely used "preprocessing" step in many learning tasks, typically leading to dimensionality reduction by projecting onto a number of dominant singular vectors and…

The $l_2$ flattening lemma of Johnson and Lindenstrauss [JL84] is a powerful tool for dimension reduction. It has been conjectured that the target dimension bounds can be refined and bounded in terms of the intrinsic dimensionality of the…
We demonstrate that for expander graphs, for all $\epsilon > 0,$ there exists a data structure of size $\widetilde{O}(n\epsilon^{-1})$ which can be used to return $(1 + \epsilon)$-approximations to effective resistances in…
We propose a general algorithmic framework for constrained matrix and tensor factorization, which is widely used in signal processing and machine learning. The new framework is a hybrid between alternating optimization (AO) and the…
The objective of ordinal embedding is to find a Euclidean representation of a set of abstract items, using only answers to triplet comparisons of the form "Is item $i$ closer to the item $j$ or item $k$?". In recent years, numerous…
