We describe how the low-rank structure in an SDP can be exploited to reduce the per-iteration cost of a convex primal-dual interior-point method down to $O(n^{3})$ time and $O(n^{2})$ memory, even at very high accuracies. A traditional…
We propose a localized divide and conquer algorithm for inverse factorization $S^{-1} = ZZ^*$ of Hermitian positive definite matrices $S$ with localized structure, e.g. exponential decay with respect to some given distance function on the…
In this work, we develop a new fast algorithm, spaQR -- sparsified QR, for solving large, sparse linear systems. The key to our approach is using low-rank approximations to sparsify the separators in a Nested Dissection based Householder QR…
Existing speculative decoding methods typically require additional model structure and training processes to assist the model for draft token generation. This makes the migration of acceleration methods to the new model more costly and more…

Low-rank matrix completion is a problem of immense practical importance. Recent works on the subject often use nuclear norm as a convex surrogate of the rank function. Despite its solid theoretical foundation, the convex version of the…

Fine-tuning pre-trained models has been ubiquitously proven to be effective in a wide range of NLP tasks. However, fine-tuning the whole model is parameter inefficient as it always yields an entirely new model for each task. Currently, many…
Many data-driven approaches exist to extract neural representations of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data, but most of them lack a proper probabilistic formulation. We propose a group level scalable probabilistic sparse…
