We study the problem of multivariate regression where the data are naturally grouped, and a regression matrix is to be estimated for each group. We propose an approach in which a dictionary of low rank parameter matrices is estimated across…

Given a sample covariance matrix, we solve a maximum likelihood problem penalized by the number of nonzero coefficients in the inverse covariance matrix. Our objective is to find a sparse representation of the sample data and to highlight…

In this paper, we present a probabilistic algorithm to multiply two sparse polynomials almost as efficiently as two dense univariate polynomials with a result of approximately the same size. The algorithm depends on unproven heuristics that…

Given a family of rational curves depending on a real parameter, defined by its parametric equations, we provide an algorithm to compute a finite partition of the parameter space (${\Bbb R}$, in general) so that the shape of the family…

We aim at computing the derivative of the solution to a parametric optimization problem with respect to the involved parameters. For a class broader than that of strongly convex functions, this can be achieved by automatic differentiation…

In this paper, we build up a framework for sparse interpolation. We first investigate the theoretical limit of the number of unisolvent points for sparse interpolation under a general setting and try to answer some basic questions of this…

We survey a variety of results about partially isometric matrices. We focus primarily on results that are distinctly finite-dimensional. For example, we cover a recent solution to the similarity problem for partial isometries. We also…

Using the minors in Hessian matrices, we introduce new graded algebras associated to a homogeneous polynomial. When the associated projective hypersurface has isolated singularities, these algebras are related to some new local algebras…

Determinantal point processes have arisen in diverse settings in recent years and have been investigated intensively. We study basic combinatorial and probabilistic aspects in the discrete case. Our main results concern relationships with…

We present a hybrid constraint-based/Bayesian algorithm for learning causal networks in the presence of sparse data. The algorithm searches the space of equivalence classes of models (essential graphs) using a heuristic based on…

In this paper, we deal with multiobjective composite optimization problems, where each objective function is a combination of smooth and possibly non-smooth functions. We first propose a parameter-dependent conditional gradient method to…

While adaptive sensing has provided improved rates of convergence in sparse regression and classification, results in nonparametric regression have so far been restricted to quite specific classes of functions. In this paper, we describe an…

Iterative regularization exploits the implicit bias of an optimization algorithm to regularize ill-posed problems. Constructing algorithms with such built-in regularization mechanisms is a classic challenge in inverse problems but also in…

We introduce a multi-parameter generalization of the Lambda-determinant of Robbins and Rumsey, based on the cluster algebra with coefficients attached to a T-system recurrence. We express the result as a weighted sum over alternating sign…
