We present the Mixed Likelihood Gaussian process latent variable model (GP-LVM), capable of modeling data with attributes of different types. The standard formulation of GP-LVM assumes that each observation is drawn from a Gaussian…

One of the main questions that arise when studying random and quasi-random structures is which properties P are such that any object that satisfies P "behaves" like a truly random one. In the context of graphs, Chung, Graham, and Wilson…

We consider a product of an arbitrary number of independent rectangular Gaussian random matrices. We derive the mean densities of its eigenvalues and singular values in the thermodynamic limit, eventually verified numerically. These…

We develop a principled way of identifying probability distributions whose independent and identically distributed (iid) realizations are compressible, i.e., can be well-approximated as sparse. We focus on Gaussian random underdetermined…

Let $M$ be an $n\times n$ random matrix with entries in $\{0, 1\}$, where each row is independently and uniformly sampled from the set of all vectors in $\{0, 1\}^n$ containing exactly $d$ ones, with $d=pn$ for some fixed constant $p\in…

We consider the famous Rasch model, which is applied to psychometric surveys when n persons under test answer m questions. The score is given by a realization of a random binary (n,m)-matrix. Its (j,k)th component indicates whether or not…

We introduce an alternative closed form lower bound on the Gaussian process ($\mathcal{GP}$) likelihood based on the R\'enyi $\alpha$-divergence. This new lower bound can be viewed as a convex combination of the Nystr\"om approximation and…

Let $(X_1,\dots,X_m)$ be self-adjoint non-commutative random variables distributed according to the free Gibbs law given by a sufficiently regular convex and semi-concave potential $V$, and let $(S_1,\dots,S_m)$ be a free semicircular…

This paper addresses the issue of estimating the expectation of a real-valued random variable of the form $X = g(\mathbf{U})$ where $g$ is a deterministic function and $\mathbf{U}$ can be a random finite- or infinite-dimensional vector.…

The Restricted Isometry Property (RIP) is a fundamental property of a matrix which enables sparse recovery. Informally, an $m \times n$ matrix satisfies RIP of order $k$ for the $\ell_p$ norm, if $\|Ax\|_p \approx \|x\|_p$ for every vector…

In this paper, we prove the restricted isometry property of block diagonal random matrices with elements from $\varphi$-sub-Gaussian variables, which extends the previously known results for the sub-Gaussian case. A crucial ingredient of…

We introduce constrained Gaussian process (CGP), a Gaussian process model for random functions that allows easy placement of mathematical constrains (e.g., non-negativity, monotonicity, etc) on its sample functions. CGP comes with…

In this paper we consider the problem of linear unmixing hidden random variables defined over the simplex with additive Gaussian noise, also known as probabilistic simplex component analysis (PRISM). Previous solutions to tackle this…

Gaussian processes (GPs) are widely used in nonparametric regression, classification and spatio-temporal modeling, motivated in part by a rich literature on theoretical properties. However, a well known drawback of GPs that limits their use…

The Gaussian Mechanism (GM), which consists in adding Gaussian noise to a vector-valued query before releasing it, is a standard privacy protection mechanism. In particular, given that the query respects some L2 sensitivity property (the L2…

We study mean estimation for a Gaussian distribution with identity covariance in $\mathbb{R}^d$ under a missing data scheme termed realizable $\epsilon$-contamination model. In this model an adversary can choose a function $r(x)$ between 0…

A matrix $A \in \mathbb{C}^{q \times N}$ satisfies the restricted isometry property of order $k$ with constant $\varepsilon$ if it preserves the $\ell_2$ norm of all $k$-sparse vectors up to a factor of $1\pm \varepsilon$. We prove that a…

A simple generalization of the Hall's condition in bipartite graphs, the Normalized Matching Property (NMP) in a graph $G(X,Y,E)$ with vertex partition $(X,Y)$ states that for any subset $S\subseteq X$, we have…

The trimmed mean of $n$ scalar random variables from a distribution $P$ is the variant of the standard sample mean where the $k$ smallest and $k$ largest values in the sample are discarded for some parameter $k$. In this paper, we look at…

In this article we present a statistical version of the Candes-Tao restricted isometry property (SRIP for short) which holds in general for any incoherent dictionary which is a disjoint union of orthonormal bases. In addition, we show that,…
