We design a sublinear-time approximation algorithm for quadratic function minimization problems with a better error bound than the previous algorithm by Hayashi and Yoshida (NIPS'16). Our approximation algorithm can be modified to handle…
The class of quasiseparable matrices is defined by the property that any submatrix entirely below or above the main diagonal has small rank, namely below a bound called the order of quasiseparability. These matrices arise naturally in…
Many problems of theoretical and practical interest involve finding an optimum over a family of convex functions. For instance, finding the projection on the convex functions in $H^k(\Omega)$, and optimizing functionals arising from some…
We give a new proof for an equality of certain max-min and min-max approximation problems involving normal matrices. The previously published proofs of this equality apply tools from matrix theory, (analytic) optimization theory and…
We study the maximal rank in affine subspaces of symmetric or alternating matrices, in terms of the matching numbers of certain associated graphs. Applications include simple proofs of upper bounds on the dimension of such subspaces in…
Matrix completion is a problem that arises in many data-analysis settings where the input consists of a partially-observed matrix (e.g., recommender systems, traffic matrix analysis etc.). Classical approaches to matrix completion assume…
Low-rank matrix approximations, such as the truncated singular value decomposition and the rank-revealing QR decomposition, play a central role in data analysis and scientific computing. This work surveys and extends recent research which…
Recently, Musco and Woodruff (FOCS, 2017) showed that given an $n \times n$ positive semidefinite (PSD) matrix $A$, it is possible to compute a $(1+\epsilon)$-approximate relative-error low-rank approximation to $A$ by querying…
We extend the existing skew polynomial representations of matrix algebras which are direct sum of matrix spaces over division rings. In this representation, the sum-rank distance between two tuples of matrices is captured by a weight…
We consider the problem of finding a $k\times k$ submatrix of an $n\times n$ matrix with i.i.d. standard Gaussian entries, which has a large average entry. It was shown earlier by Bhamidi et al. that the largest average value of such a…
Submodularity is a fundamental phenomenon in combinatorial optimization. Submodular functions occur in a variety of combinatorial settings such as coverage problems, cut problems, welfare maximization, and many more. Therefore, a lot of…
The problem of non-monotone $k$-submodular maximization under a knapsack constraint ($\kSMK$) over the ground set size $n$ has been raised in many applications in machine learning, such as data summarization, information propagation, etc.…
We consider the uniform approximation of the smallest eigenvalue of a large parameter-dependent Hermitian matrix by that of a smaller counterpart obtained through projections. The projection subspaces are constructed iteratively by means of…
We consider the problem of finding the optimal diagonal preconditioner for a positive definite matrix. Although this problem has been shown to be solvable and various methods have been proposed, none of the existing approaches are scalable…
This paper addresses matrix approximation problems for matrices that are large, sparse and/or that are representations of large graphs. To tackle these problems, we consider algorithms that are based primarily on coarsening techniques,…
Alternating minimization represents a widely applicable and empirically successful approach for finding low-rank matrices that best fit the given data. For example, for the problem of low-rank matrix completion, this method is believed to…
We address the inverse problem that arises in compressed sensing of a low-rank matrix. Our approach is to pose the inverse problem as an approximation problem with a specified target rank of the solution. A simple search over the target…
Generalized matrix approximation plays a fundamental role in many machine learning problems, such as CUR decomposition, kernel approximation, and matrix low rank approximation. Especially with today's applications involved in larger and…
In this paper, we propose a low-rank coordinate descent approach to structured semidefinite programming with diagonal constraints. The approach, which we call the Mixing method, is extremely simple to implement, has no free parameters, and…
This paper considers the problem of matrix completion when some number of the columns are completely and arbitrarily corrupted, potentially by a malicious adversary. It is well-known that standard algorithms for matrix completion can return…
