Data in the form of networks are increasingly available in a variety of areas, yet statistical models allowing for parameter estimates with desirable statistical properties for sparse networks remain scarce. To address this, we propose the…

In this work we are interested in the problems of supervised learning and variable selection when the input-output dependence is described by a nonlinear function depending on a few variables. Our goal is to consider a sparse nonparametric…

Phase retrieval (PR) is a popular research topic in signal processing and machine learning. However, its performance degrades significantly when the measurements are corrupted by noise or outliers. To address this limitation, we propose a…

The goal of this paper is to find a low-rank approximation for a given tensor. Specifically, we give a computable strategy on calculating the rank of a given tensor, based on approximating the solution to an NP-hard problem. In this paper,…

We study network loss tomography based on observing average loss rates over a set of paths forming a tree -- a severely underdetermined linear problem for the unknown link loss probabilities. We examine in detail the role of sparsity as a…

This work presents a new method for enhancing communication efficiency in stochastic Federated Learning that trains over-parameterized random networks. In this setting, a binary mask is optimized instead of the model weights, which are kept…

In this paper, we propose scalable methods for maximizing a regularized submodular function $f = g - \ell$ expressed as the difference between a monotone submodular function $g$ and a modular function $\ell$. Indeed, submodularity is…

In-network distributed estimation of sparse parameter vectors via diffusion LMS strategies has been studied and investigated in recent years. In all the existing works, some convex regularization approach has been used at each node of the…

This paper presents a novel hybrid algorithm for minimizing the sum of a continuously differentiable loss function and a nonsmooth, possibly nonconvex, sparse regularization function. The proposed method alternates between solving a…

In this paper, the recursive least squares (RLS) algorithm is considered in the sparse system identification setting. The cost function of RLS algorithm is regularized by a $p$-norm-like ($0 \leq p \leq 1$) constraint of the estimated…

We present a resummed mean-field approximation for inferring the parameters of an Ising or a Potts model from empirical, noisy, one- and two-point correlation functions. Based on a resummation of a class of diagrams of the small correlation…

Parameter estimation in Markov random fields (MRFs) is a difficult task, in which inference over the network is run in the inner loop of a gradient descent procedure. Replacing exact inference with approximate methods such as loopy belief…

We propose a hierarchical learning strategy aimed at generating sparse representations and associated models for large noisy datasets. The hierarchy follows from approximation spaces identified at successively finer scales. For promoting…

It is well known that $\ell_1$ minimization can be used to recover sufficiently sparse unknown signals from compressed linear measurements. In fact, exact thresholds on the sparsity, as a function of the ratio between the system dimensions,…

We propose a sparse regularization model for inversion of incomplete Fourier transforms and apply it to seismic wavefield modeling. The objective function of the proposed model employs the Moreau envelope of the $\ell_0$ norm under a tight…

In this paper, we propose $\ell_p$-norm regularized models to seek near-optimal sparse portfolios. These sparse solutions reduce the complexity of portfolio implementation and management. Theoretical results are established to guarantee the…

In this paper, we propose a regularized mixture probabilistic model to cluster matrix data and apply it to brain signals. The approach is able to capture the sparsity (low rank, small/zero values) of the original signals by introducing…

Inference and optimization of real-value edge variables in sparse graphs are studied using the Bethe approximation and replica method of statistical physics. Equilibrium states of general energy functions involving a large set of real…

We obtain bounds on estimation error rates for regularization procedures of the form \begin{equation*} \hat f \in {\rm argmin}_{f\in F}\left(\frac{1}{N}\sum_{i=1}^N\left(Y_i-f(X_i)\right)^2+\lambda \Psi(f)\right) \end{equation*} when $\Psi$…

The present paper concerns large covariance matrix estimation via composite minimization under the assumption of low rank plus sparse structure. In this approach, the low rank plus sparse decomposition of the covariance matrix is recovered…
