We characterize the effectiveness of a classical algorithm for recovering the Markov graph of a general discrete pairwise graphical model from i.i.d. samples. The algorithm is (appropriately regularized) maximum conditional log-likelihood,…
The Restricted Isometry Property (RIP) is a fundamental property of a matrix which enables sparse recovery. Informally, an $m \times n$ matrix satisfies RIP of order $k$ for the $\ell_p$ norm, if $\|Ax\|_p \approx \|x\|_p$ for every vector…
A different compressive sensing framework, convolution with white noise waveform followed by subsampling at fixed (not randomly selected) locations, is studied in this paper. We show that its recoverability for sparse signals depends on the…
We derive fundamental sample complexity bounds for recovering sparse and structured signals for linear and nonlinear observation models including sparse regression, group testing, multivariate regression and problems with missing features.…
Motivated by problems in controlled experiments, we study the discrepancy of random matrices with continuous entries where the number of columns $n$ is much larger than the number of rows $m$. Our first result shows that if $\omega(1) = m =…
Conditional on the extended Riemann hypothesis, we show that with high probability, the characteristic polynomial of a random symmetric $\{\pm 1\}$-matrix is irreducible. This addresses a question raised by Eberhard in recent work. The main…
This paper focuses studies the following low rank + sparse (LR+S) column-wise compressive sensing problem. We aim to recover an $n \times q$ matrix, $\X^* =[ \x_1^*, \x_2^*, \cdots , \x_q^*]$ from $m$ independent linear projections of each…
We consider the problem of sparse signal recovery from noisy measurements. Many of frequently used recovery methods rely on some sort of tuning depending on either noise or signal parameters. If no estimates for either of them are…
In this paper, we revisit the problem of sparse linear regression in the local differential privacy (LDP) model. Existing research in the non-interactive and sequentially local models has focused on obtaining the lower bounds for the case…
Sparse recovery is widely applied in many fields, since many signals or vectors can be sparsely represented under some frames or dictionaries. Most of fast algorithms at present are based on solving $l^0$ or $l^1$ minimization problems and…
We provide a general formula for the eigenvalue density of large random $N\times N$ matrices of the form $A = M + LJR$, where $M$, $L$ and $R$ are arbitrary deterministic matrices and $J$ is a random matrix of zero-mean independent and…
The support recovery problem consists of determining a sparse subset of a set of variables that is relevant in generating a set of observations, and arises in a diverse range of settings such as compressive sensing, and subset selection in…

Statistical properties of non--symmetric real random matrices of size $M$, obtained as truncations of random orthogonal $N\times N$ matrices are investigated. We derive an exact formula for the density of eigenvalues which consists of two…
We study the high-dimensional inference of a rank-one signal corrupted by sparse noise. The noise is modelled as the adjacency matrix of a weighted undirected graph with finite average connectivity in the large size limit. Using the replica…
