We provide new approximation guarantees for greedy low rank matrix estimation under standard assumptions of restricted strong convexity and smoothness. Our novel analysis also uncovers previously unknown connections between the low rank…
We explore the impact of coarse quantization on low-rank matrix sensing in the extreme scenario of dithered one-bit sampling, where the high-resolution measurements are compared with random time-varying threshold levels. To recover the…
Randomized linear system solvers have become popular as they have the potential to reduce floating point complexity while still achieving desirable convergence rates. One particularly promising class of methods, random sketching solvers,…
Distributed linear algebraic equation over networks, where nodes hold a part of problem data and cooperatively solve the equation via node-to-node communications, is a basic distributed computation task receiving an increasing research…
Mixtures of linear mixed models (MLMMs) are useful for clustering grouped data and can be estimated by likelihood maximization through the EM algorithm. The conventional approach to determining a suitable number of components is to compare…
Semi- and non-parametric mixture of regressions are a very useful flexible class of mixture of regressions in which some or all of the parameters are non-parametric functions of the covariates. These models are, however, based on the…
Stochastic variance-reduced algorithms such as Stochastic Average Gradient (SAG) and SAGA, and their deterministic counterparts like the Incremental Aggregated Gradient (IAG) method, have been extensively studied in large-scale machine…
Iterative refinement (IR) is a popular scheme for solving a linear system of equations based on gradually improving the accuracy of an initial approximation. Originally developed to improve upon the accuracy of Gaussian elimination,…
This paper is about GMRES algorithms for the solution of nonsingular linear systems. We first consider basic algorithms and study their convergence. We then focus on acceleration strategies and parallel algorithms that are useful for…
Graph alignment aims at finding the vertex correspondence between two correlated graphs, a task that frequently occurs in graph mining applications such as social network analysis. Attributed graph alignment is a variant of graph alignment,…
We reconsider randomized algorithms for the low-rank approximation of symmetric positive semi-definite (SPSD) matrices such as Laplacian and kernel matrices that arise in data analysis and machine learning applications. Our main results…
This work unifies the analysis of various randomized methods for solving linear and nonlinear inverse problems by framing the problem in a stochastic optimization setting. By doing so, we show that many randomized methods are variants of a…
In this paper, we consider robust control using randomized algorithms. We extend the existing order statistics distribution theory to the general case in which the distribution of population is not assumed to be continuous and the order…
We present here a more general version of the balanced pair algorithm. This version works in the reducible case and terminates more often than the standard algorithm. We present examples to illustrate this point. Lastly, we discuss the…
A Riemannian gradient descent algorithm and a truncated variant are presented to solve systems of phaseless equations $|Ax|^2=y$. The algorithms are developed by exploiting the inherent low rank structure of the problem based on the…
Motivated by applications in machine learning and statistics, we study distributed optimization problems over a network of processors, where the goal is to optimize a global objective composed of a sum of local functions. In these problems,…
Distributed maximization of a submodular function in the MapReduce (MR) model has received much attention, culminating in two frameworks that allow a centralized algorithm to be run in the MR setting without loss of approximation, as long…
This paper studies the Craig variant of the Golub-Kahan bidiagonalization algorithm as an iterative solver for linear systems with saddle point structure. Such symmetric indefinite systems in 2x2 block form arise in many applications, but…
This paper presents a class of new algorithms for distributed statistical estimation that exploit divide-and-conquer approach. We show that one of the key benefits of the divide-and-conquer strategy is robustness, an important…
This paper expands the analysis of randomized low-rank approximation beyond the Gaussian distribution to four classes of random matrices: (1) independent sub-Gaussian entries, (2) independent sub-Gaussian columns, (3) independent bounded…
