We introduce a new shrinkage variable selection operator for linear models which we term the \emph{adaptive ridge selector} (ARiS). This approach is inspired by the \emph{relevance vector machine} (RVM), which uses a Bayesian hierarchical…

In this paper, we study regression problems over a separable Hilbert space with the square loss, covering non-parametric regression over a reproducing kernel Hilbert space. We investigate a class of spectral/regularized algorithms,…

The GMRES algorithm of Saad and Schultz (1986) is an iterative method for approximately solving linear systems $A{\bf x}={\bf b}$, with initial guess ${\bf x}_0$ and residual ${\bf r}_0 = {\bf b} - A{\bf x}_0$. The algorithm employs the…

We study efficiency improvements in randomized experiments for estimating a vector of potential outcome means using regression adjustment (RA) when there are more than two treatment levels. We show that linear RA which estimates separate…

In this paper, we study the efficiency of a {\bf R}estarted {\bf S}ub{\bf G}radient (RSG) method that periodically restarts the standard subgradient method (SG). We show that, when applied to a broad class of convex optimization problems,…

The authors study statistical linear inverse problems in Hilbert spaces. Approximate solutions are sought within a class of linear one-parameter regularization schemes, and the parameter choice is crucial to control the root mean squared…

This paper analyzes the convergence for a large class of Riemannian stochastic approximation (SA) schemes, which aim at tackling stochastic optimization problems. In particular, the recursions we study use either the exponential map of the…

We describe an asynchronous parallel variant of the randomized Kaczmarz (RK) algorithm for solving the linear system $Ax=b$. The analysis shows linear convergence and indicates that nearly linear speedup can be expected if the number of…

Large-scale linear systems of the form $Ax=b$ are often doubly-noisy, in the sense that both its measurement matrix $A$ and measurement vector $b$ are noisy. In this paper, we extend the relaxed greedy randomized Kaczmarz (RGRK) method to…

We establish optimal convergence rates for a decomposition-based scalable approach to kernel ridge regression. The method is simple to describe: it randomly partitions a dataset of size N into m subsets of equal size, computes an…

We consider linear systems $Ax = b$ where $A \in \mathbb{R}^{m \times n}$ consists of normalized rows, $\|a_i\|_{\ell^2} = 1$, and where up to $\beta m$ entries of $b$ have been corrupted (possibly by arbitrarily large numbers). Haddock,…

We study a type of Riemannian gradient descent (RGD) algorithm, designed through Riemannian preconditioning, for optimization on $\mathcal{M}_k^{m\times n}$ -- the set of $m\times n$ real matrices with a fixed rank $k$. Our analysis is…

We develop a novel, fundamental and surprisingly simple randomized iterative method for solving consistent linear systems. Our method has six different but equivalent interpretations: sketch-and-project, constrain-and-approximate, random…

Kernel and linear regression have been recently explored in the prediction of graph signals as the output, given arbitrary input signals that are agnostic to the graph. In many real-world problems, the graph expands over time as new nodes…

We propose a Randomised Subspace Gauss-Newton (R-SGN) algorithm for solving nonlinear least-squares optimization problems, that uses a sketched Jacobian of the residual in the variable domain and solves a reduced linear least-squares on…

We analyze inexact Riemannian gradient descent (RGD) where Riemannian gradients and retractions are inexactly (and cheaply) computed. Our focus is on understanding when inexact RGD converges and what is the complexity in the general…

The iteratively reweighted least squares method (IRLS) is a popular technique used in practice for solving regression problems. Various versions of this method have been proposed, but their theoretical analyses failed to capture the good…

Partial least squares regression (PLSR) has been a popular technique to explore the linear relationship between two datasets. However, most of algorithm implementations of PLSR may only achieve a suboptimal solution through an optimization…

For high-dimensional linear regression models, we review and compare several estimators of variances $\tau^2$ and $\sigma^2$ of the random slopes and errors, respectively. These variances relate directly to ridge regression penalty…

In high-dimensional multivariate regression problems, enforcing low rank in the coefficient matrix offers effective dimension reduction, which greatly facilitates parameter estimation and model interpretation. However, commonly-used…
