Distribution regression refers to the supervised learning problem where labels are only available for groups of inputs instead of individual inputs. In this paper, we develop a rigorous mathematical framework for distribution regression…
Detection of out-of-distribution samples is one of the critical tasks for real-world applications of computer vision. The advancement of deep learning has enabled us to analyze real-world data which contain unexplained samples, accentuating…
This paper investigates graph clustering in the planted cluster model in the presence of {\em small clusters}. Traditional results dictate that for an algorithm to provably correctly recover the clusters, {\em all} clusters must be…
Diffusion models excel at generating high-quality, diverse images but suffer from training data memorization, raising critical privacy and safety concerns. Data unlearning has emerged to mitigate this issue by removing the influence of…
We study the density estimation problem defined as follows: given $k$ distributions $p_1, \ldots, p_k$ over a discrete domain $[n]$, as well as a collection of samples chosen from a ``query'' distribution $q$ over $[n]$, output $p_i$ that…
We develop a numerical method to reconstruct systems of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) from time series data without {\it a priori} knowledge of the underlying ODEs using sparse basis learning and sparse function reconstruction. We…
We introduce the Random Subsequence Model, a spin glass model on pairs of random strings $(X,Y) \in \{0,1\}^N \times \{0,1\}^M$ whose partition function counts subsequence embeddings of $Y$ into $X$. We study two variants: the null model,…
We consider the problem of distributed lossy linear function computation in a tree network. We examine two cases: (i) data aggregation (only one sink node computes) and (ii) consensus (all nodes compute the same function). By quantifying…
We describe a new algorithm to solve a particular phase retrieval problem, that has wide applications in audio processing: the reconstruction of a function from its scalogram, that is from the modulus of its wavelet transform. It is a…
We give the first $\tilde{O}(\frac{1}{\sqrt{T}})$-error online algorithm for reconstructing noisy statistical databases, where $T$ is the number of (online) sample queries received. The algorithm, which requires only $O(\log T)$ memory,…
This work considers distributed sensing and transmission of sporadic random samples. Lower bounds are derived for the reconstruction error of a single normally or uniformly-distributed finite-dimensional vector imperfectly measured by a…
We propose and study the problem of distribution-preserving lossy compression. Motivated by recent advances in extreme image compression which allow to maintain artifact-free reconstructions even at very low bitrates, we propose to optimize…
This paper presents a new erasure code called Treeplication designed for distributed recovery of the full information word, while most prior work in coding for distributed storage only supports distributed repair of individual symbols. A…
In this work, we consider the problem of efficient decoding of codes from insertions and deletions. Most of the known efficient codes are codes with synchronization strings which allow one to reduce the problem of decoding insertions and…
This article investigates the use of a model-based neural-network for the traffic reconstruction problem using noisy measurements coming from probe vehicles. The traffic state is assumed to be the density only, modeled by a partial…
In this paper we study the reconstruction of binary sparse signals from partial random circulant measurements. We show that the reconstruction via the least-squares algorithm is as good as the reconstruction via the usually used program…
The increased availability of data in recent years has led several authors to ask whether it is possible to use data as a {\em computational} resource. That is, if more data is available, beyond the sample complexity limit, is it possible…
We study the problem, introduced by Qiao and Valiant, of learning from untrusted batches. Here, we assume $m$ users, all of whom have samples from some underlying distribution $p$ over $1, \ldots, n$. Each user sends a batch of $k$ i.i.d.…
In this paper, we consider the mixture of sparse linear regressions model. Let ${\beta}^{(1)},\ldots,{\beta}^{(L)}\in\mathbb{C}^n$ be $ L $ unknown sparse parameter vectors with a total of $ K $ non-zero coefficients. Noisy linear…
It is now well understood that (1) it is possible to reconstruct sparse signals exactly from what appear to be highly incomplete sets of linear measurements and (2) that this can be done by constrained L1 minimization. In this paper, we…
