This article considers algorithmic and statistical aspects of linear regression when the correspondence between the covariates and the responses is unknown. First, a fully polynomial-time approximation scheme is given for the natural least…

We consider the problem of principal component analysis (PCA) in the presence of outliers. Given a matrix $A$ ($d \times n$) and parameters $k, m$, the goal is to remove a set of at most $m$ columns of $A$ (known as outliers), so as to…

In the trace reconstruction problem our goal is to learn an unknown string $x\in \{0,1\}^n$ given independent traces of $x$. A trace is obtained by independently deleting each bit of $x$ with some probability $\delta$ and concatenating the…

We assume data independently sampled from a mixture distribution on the unit ball of the D-dimensional Euclidean space with K+1 components: the first component is a uniform distribution on that ball representing outliers and the other K…

We consider the problem of learning a discrete distribution in the presence of an $\epsilon$ fraction of malicious data sources. Specifically, we consider the setting where there is some underlying distribution, $p$, and each data source…

The problem of dimension reduction is of increasing importance in modern data analysis. In this paper, we consider modeling the collection of points in a high dimensional space as a union of low dimensional subspaces. In particular we…

In the trace reconstruction problem, one seeks to reconstruct a binary string $s$ from a collection of traces, each of which is obtained by passing $s$ through a deletion channel. It is known that $\exp(\tilde O(n^{1/5}))$ traces suffice to…

The 1-center clustering with outliers problem asks about identifying a prototypical robust statistic that approximates the location of a cluster of points. Given some constant $0 < \alpha < 1$ and $n$ points such that $\alpha n$ of them are…

Extracting the underlying low-dimensional space where high-dimensional signals often reside has long been at the center of numerous algorithms in the signal processing and machine learning literature during the past few decades. At the same…

We introduce and develop a novel approach to outlier detection based on adaptation of random subspace learning. Our proposed method handles both high-dimension low-sample size and traditional low-dimensional high-sample size datasets.…

In this paper, we consider the recovery of the high-dimensional block-sparse signal from a compressed set of measurements, where the non-zero coefficients of the recovered signal occur in a small number of blocks. Adopting the idea of deep…

Let ${\cal{D}}$ = $\{d_1, d_2, d_3, ..., d_D\}$ be a given set of $D$ (string) documents of total length $n$. The top-$k$ document retrieval problem is to index $\cal{D}$ such that when a pattern $P$ of length $p$, and a parameter $k$ come…

Several recent works have considered the \emph{trace reconstruction problem}, in which an unknown source string $x\in\{0,1\}^n$ is transmitted through a probabilistic channel which may randomly delete coordinates or insert random bits,…
