Regressing rotations on SO(3) manifold using deep neural networks is an important yet unsolved problem. The gap between the Euclidean network output space and the non-Euclidean SO(3) manifold imposes a severe challenge for neural network…

Desirable random graph models (RGMs) should (i) reproduce common patterns in real-world graphs (e.g., power-law degrees, small diameters, and high clustering), (ii) generate variable (i.e., not overly similar) graphs, and (iii) remain…

Network alignment (NA) is the task of discovering node correspondences across multiple networks. Although NA methods have achieved remarkable success in a myriad of scenarios, their effectiveness is not without additional information such…

Neural networks have demonstrated success in various domains, yet their performance can be significantly degraded by even a small input perturbation. Consequently, the construction of such perturbations, known as adversarial attacks, has…

In recent years, Riemannian stochastic gradient descent (R-SGD), Riemannian stochastic variance reduction (R-SVRG) and Riemannian stochastic recursive gradient (R-SRG) have attracted considerable attention on Riemannian optimization. Under…

A fundamental challenge for multi-task learning is that different tasks may conflict with each other when they are solved jointly, and a cause of this phenomenon is conflicting gradients during optimization. Recent works attempt to mitigate…

The problem of achieving consensus in a network of connected systems arises in many science and engineering applications. In contrast to previous works, we focus on the system reactivity, i.e., the initial amplification of the norm of the…

We introduce optimization methods for convolutional neural networks that can be used to improve existing gradient-based optimization in terms of generalization error. The method requires only simple processing of existing stochastic…

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) has become a core paradigm for enhancing factual grounding and multi-hop reasoning in Large Language Models (LLMs). Traditional text-based RAG often retrieves logically irrelevant pseudo-evidence, while…

The automatic grading of diabetic retinopathy (DR) facilitates medical diagnosis for both patients and physicians. Existing researches formulate DR grading as an image classification problem. As the stages/categories of DR correlate with…

We propose a method to maintain high resource in a networked heterogeneous multi-robot system to resource failures. In our model, resources such as and computation are available on robots. The robots engaged in a joint task using these…

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have been widely used for the representation learning of various structured graph data. While promising, most existing GNNs oversimplified the complexity and diversity of the edges in the graph, and thus…

The hyperbolic random graph model (HRG) has proven useful in the analysis of scale-free networks, which are ubiquitous in many fields, from social network analysis to biology. However, working with this model is algorithmically and…

The state-of-the-art methods for solving optimization problems in big dimensions are variants of randomized coordinate descent (RCD). In this paper we introduce a fundamentally new type of acceleration strategy for RCD based on the…

We present and analyze several strategies for improving the performance of stochastic variance-reduced gradient (SVRG) methods. We first show that the convergence rate of these methods can be preserved under a decreasing sequence of errors…

We propose both serial and parallel proximal (linearized) alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) algorithms for training residual neural networks. In contrast to backpropagation-based approaches, our methods inherently mitigate…

A rich body of prior work has highlighted the existence of communication bottlenecks in synchronous data-parallel training. To alleviate these bottlenecks, a long line of recent work proposes gradient and model compression methods. In this…

The generalization capability of unsupervised domain adaptation can mitigate the need for extensive pixel-level annotations to train semantic segmentation networks by training models on synthetic data as a source with computer-generated…

Mix-up training approaches have proven to be effective in improving the generalization ability of Deep Neural Networks. Over the years, the research community expands mix-up methods into two directions, with extensive efforts to improve…

In this paper, we consider the problem of distributed consensus optimization over multi-agent networks with directed network topology. Assuming each agent has a local cost function that is smooth and strongly convex, the global objective is…
