In this work, we establish that Nesterov's accelerated gradient method, applied to $C^2$ functions satisfying the Polyak--{\L}ojasiewicz inequality around local minimizers, achieves the optimal local linear convergence rate…

Polyak-{\L}ojasiewicz (PL) [Polyak, 1963] condition is a weaker condition than the strong convexity but suffices to ensure a global convergence for the Gradient Descent algorithm. In this paper, we study the lower bound of algorithms using…

Principal component analysis (PCA) is a powerful tool for dimensionality reduction. Unfortunately, it is sensitive to outliers, so that various robust PCA variants were proposed in the literature. Among them the so-called rotational…

Projective Norms are a class of tensor norms that map on the input and output spaces. These norms are useful for providing a measure of entanglement. Calculating the projective norms is an NP-hard problem, which creates challenges in…

Finding a Z-eigenpair of a symmetric tensor is equivalent to finding a KKT point of a sphere constrained minimization problem. Based on this equivalency, in this paper, we first propose a class of iterative methods to get a Z-eigenpair of a…

It is known that the common factors in a large panel of data can be consistently estimated by the method of principal components, and principal components can be constructed by iterative least squares regressions. Replacing least squares…

Jacobi-type algorithms for simultaneous approximate diagonalization of real (or complex) symmetric tensors have been widely used in independent component analysis (ICA) because of their good performance. One natural way of choosing the…

Nonconvex regularization has been popularly used in low-rank matrix learning. However, extending it for low-rank tensor learning is still computationally expensive. To address this problem, we develop an efficient solver for use with a…

Tensor time series data appears naturally in a lot of fields, including finance and economics. As a major dimension reduction tool, similar to its factor model counterpart, the idiosyncratic components of a tensor time series factor model…

We study the problem of finding orthogonal low-rank approximations of symmetric tensors. In the case of matrices, the approximation is a truncated singular value decomposition which is then symmetric. Moreover, for rank-one approximations…

This note discusses proofs for convergence of first-order methods based on simple potential-function arguments. We cover methods like gradient descent (for both smooth and non-smooth settings), mirror descent, and some accelerated variants.

We propose and analyze a randomized zeroth-order approach based on approximating the exact gradient byfinite differences computed in a set of orthogonal random directions that changes with each iteration. A number ofpreviously proposed…

Tensor rank and low-rank tensor decompositions have many applications in learning and complexity theory. Most known algorithms use unfoldings of tensors and can only handle rank up to $n^{\lfloor p/2 \rfloor}$ for a $p$-th order tensor in…

In view of the minimization of a function which is the sum of a differentiable function $f$ and a convex function $g$ we introduce descent methods which can be viewed as produced by inexact auxiliary problem principleor inexact variable…

The goal of tensor completion is to fill in missing entries of a partially known tensor under a low-rank constraint. In this paper, we mainly study low rank third-order tensor completion problems by using Riemannian optimization methods on…

In this paper we study a second order dynamical system with variable coefficients in connection to the minimization problem of a smooth nonconvex function. The convergence of the trajectories generated by the dynamical system to a critical…

We incorporate an iteratively reweighted strategy in the manifold proximal point algorithm (ManPPA) in [12] to solve an enhanced sparsity inducing model for identifying sparse yet nonzero vectors in a given subspace. We establish the global…

Several Krylov-type procedures are introduced that generalize matrix Krylov methods for tensor computations. They are denoted minimal Krylov recursion, maximal Krylov recursion, contracted tensor product Krylov recursion. It is proved that…

In this paper we introduce the notion of linear computability as a method of finding the Waring rank of forms. We use this notion to find infinitely many new examples which satisfy Strassen's Conjecture.

In this paper we propose new techniques to sample arbitrary third-order tensors, with an objective of speeding up tensor algorithms that have recently gained popularity in machine learning. Our main contribution is a new way to select, in a…
