Dimensionality reduction-based dictionary learning methods in the literature have often used iterative random projections. The dimensionality of such a random projection matrix is a random number that might not lead to a separable subspace…

The Johnson-Lindenstrauss transform is a fundamental method for dimension reduction in Euclidean spaces, that can map any dataset of $n$ points into dimension $O(\log n)$ with low distortion of their distances. This dimension bound is tight…

We study the effect of Johnson-Lindenstrauss transforms in various projective clustering problems, generalizing recent results which only applied to center-based clustering [MMR19]. We ask the general question: for a Euclidean optimization…

In this paper we make a novel use of the Johnson-Lindenstrauss Lemma. The Lemma has an existential form saying that there exists a JL transformation $f$ of the data points into lower dimensional space such that all of them fall into…

The Johnson-Lindenstrauss (JL) lemma allows subsets of a high-dimensional space to be embedded into a lower-dimensional space while approximately preserving all pairwise Euclidean distances. This important result has inspired an extensive…

We introduce the first probabilistic framework tailored for sequential random projection, an approach rooted in the challenges of sequential decision-making under uncertainty. The analysis is complicated by the sequential dependence and…

The Johnson-Lindenstrauss lemma is one of the corner stone results in dimensionality reduction. It says that given $N$, for any set of $N$ vectors $X \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, there exists a mapping $f : X \to \mathbb{R}^m$ such that $f(X)$…

Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a smooth $d$-dimensional submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^N$ with boundary that's equipped with the Euclidean (chordal) metric, and choose $m \leq N$. In this paper we consider the probability that a random matrix $A \in…

Johnson and Lindenstrauss (Contemporary Mathematics, 1984) showed that for $n > m$, a scaled random projection $\mathbf{A}$ from $\mathbb{R}^n$ to $\mathbb{R}^m$ is an approximate isometry on any set $S$ of size at most exponential in $m$.…

It is well known that the Johnson-Lindenstrauss dimensionality reduction method is optimal for worst case distortion. While in practice many other methods and heuristics are used, not much is known in terms of bounds on their performance.…
